As RJ said the miata trumps it in everything but price, and it seems like its 2 grand well worth it. Id like to see what the new "hot rod" version from the us has versus mazdaspeeds offerings in a year or two
The Kappa platform is designed to accomodate an engine as large as a V8.
Although we're more likely to see a Supercharged/Turbocharged solstice, let's not rule out one of the small displacement (Probably high value) V8's in a Solstice/Sky/Other Kappa Platform Car.
1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442
