Miata vs Tiger

[Rande Bellman <rande@thecia.net>]

A turbocharged Miata blowing off a Tiger? Ok, maybe. A stock 4 cylinder
Miata finishing a 1/4 mile in a faster time than a Tiger? Dream on.

Not much of a challenge. I owned a Miata for one year, and it did a lot
of things very well (handling, comfortable, very well made, very well
designed, etc) but acceleration was not one of them.

An improvement on the Alpine? Well, yea, it had 25 years of development
. Faster than a Tiger?

Nope.
