You are assuming that twins want better rubber than the miata. Which is also not true. Twin owners are simply stating that given equal rubber, it would be a more fair comparison.

You are also comparing a "Club Sport" Miata to a twin. Now there are always the "well it comes from the factory, so its a fair comparison" arguments.

I am not from that camp. Even when I drove my scion I found it very biased to cars with multiple trims to compare a base model vehicle to a sport trim vehicle.

Base FR-S to a Base miata.

Where is that comparison?
This is a pretty silly sentiment. Of course you should look at the appropriate packages. But of course you should look at the respective price of the car with each package. Why the he'll can't you compare sports versions with other cars, especially if that's what you are interested in? so when you talk about a z4 you are only allowed to talk about the 28 and not the 35is? Are you only allowed to talk about the Cayman and not the Cayman S?

It would be silly to say x car is cheaper AND faster because the base car is cheaper and the loaded car is faster. But why the he'll can't you compare both a sports and a club miata with each other and other cars? They both maintain a factory waranty
