So a soft top 6 speed with the Bilsteins comes to $26,745 incl. destination. I'd love for the FT to come with Bilsteins as well, could you point me in the direction of those spy shots if you have them handy?

Compared with that MX-5, the FT gains: a roof, 2~ish seats, lower CoG, more power and loses... some lightness and double wishbones up front? But they're planning to price it lower? Sounds like a win to me. Optioned out, a PRHT MX-5 can eclipse $30k. If you consider that, $27k for an FT might be quite the deal, and below $25k - a steal.
