I like em. I'd own one. I'd race one. It is the SV650 of the auto world. I bet it has made better drivers out of most that have driven it, compared to say a vette or Mustang GT because it has little HP and a very communicative chassis, teaching the driver more about corner technique and entrance speed than a heavy Murican pony car...

With the BOATERS running a close second...though the boaters don't toss motor oil on the roads..they just tow the boats across the lines at mach speeds thru blind corners

I sat and watched full size 18 wheelers with trailers in tow going up and down Deal's Gap. Couldn't believe it...but they made it through somehow.

Why do they feel the need to put a stupid face on these cars? Make the grill bigger and retro headlights like the AC Cobra or an Austin Healey and a bit of a wider stance and I think it would look decent. Its the smile that makes this car "Gay" or a "chick's" car.

I don't understand why the Mazdaspeed version had such a short run... stuff the Mazdaspeed3 engine and party down (well, except that it's already expensive and has surprisingly poor MPG ratings for such a light car)
