Heck, there's B-Spec racing with those cars and seem like a 4 door and 2 more seats version of the Miata.

youre nuts!
you tell me a car that feels as solid as mine does at almost 100k miles? Have you ever been in one of those cars with more than 50k miles? they rattle, they shake, and they feel like crap
In general, i suppose this thread is meant to point out whether you'd rather have an older BMW or a new domestic "blah" car. So, the real question for you would be, would you rather have a brand new Mazda 2 in manual, or a 5 year old 330i in manual?
