Of course, the Miada has it all over us with its gearbox and power
plant.
I'll go along with the tranny part, but the lack of torque down low, or
up high for that matter, doesn't do it for me. Unless of course the
Miada, is the improved version of the Miata with the 2.5l inline six and
gobs of torque.

Subject: Driving comfort
Listers,
A recent thread about TR6 driving comfort brought to mind a trip I took
in my son-in-law's 2000 Miada from CT. to the Cape in MA. this summer
while my engine was being re-built. Comfort has not significantly
improved during the past 30 years. In fact, with the top and window down
in the 6 and elbow hanging out and left leg bend at the knee, there's a
sense of oneness you get that the Miada could not touch. In addition,
the Miada seats ,IMHO, are less comfortable than ours.
Of course, the Miada has it all over us with its gearbox and power
plant.

tranny conversion . . . nobody will ever know I've got one at next
year's
shows)
