Alright, you got me. Maybe I just don’t want to look into a monitor to drive so I can look over the stupid fender.

” would prefer a v6 or v8 Miata with a clutch and a convertible. Having a car that goes 200 mph in 5 seconds with an automatic and a seating position like a dentists chair is useless for me and many others. GM could never build a nimble car.”

The C8 Corvette has TWO clutches.

“GM could never build a nimble car.”

Miata only pulls 0.9 g on the skidpad. The C8 pulls > 1.0.

My Roush, > 1.05

Well if it can’t be picked up on radar that’s a good thing.

hi
ok but when i conceptualize having a new car, it has an engine in it

probably an engine will be an Extra Cost Option?

“Nimble is not just g’s.”

True. My bicycle is more nimble than a Miata.

I once had a Miata. It was a fun car.
