That's great! Now all it needs is a rotary engine.

I'd rather see the specs on the Kabura. It's already a hard top, it was "powered on to the stage" by the mx-5 i4 (which doesn't exclude the renesis for a final powerplant) it's already a hard top it looks teh sex, and the projected curb weight is 2400lbs.

interesting? oh, yes.

~ 70 lbs of weight will be added. weight distribution is almost the same. handling still feels the same and very hard to notice any difference in terms of handling between the soft top and hard top.

wow! no loss of trunk space! so you still have room for all those FABULOUS outfits. not bad looking at all. they do need to eventually put a rotary, NA or Turbo, in the MX-5 or offer it as an option (yea right). my only true complaint with the car are the ugly tail lights. sad thing is, im probably gonna get my *** handed to me this sunday autocrossing by miatas with 100+ less horsespower then me.
