How do you normally-sized people overlook the Miata?

Speaking of Russian tractors, @BigFatFlip, the old girl's saying "Knock, knock."
Pulling the engine.

@FirstWinter @BigFatFlip, he found this thing and he's getting juiced about it. No idea why, but I guess everyone has different tastes. He's possibly gonna take it to get checked out by a mechanic.

Thinking outside the box a little, there is the 300ZX TT. Should check off those requirements minus the maintenance part. |

If he's looking at non M e46s I'd think he'd be happier with a 330 ZHP. |

That's a logical thought, but I have no idea what his actual "goal" is. He said he liked the RX-8 lol.
The way it is, he never takes his Golf R out on spirited drives, so it just goes to waste from commuting from Concord to Emeryville every day. He also doesn't regularly check the oil on it, despite me telling him that he should be on a turbo DI engine. He just takes it to the dealership at the regularly scheduled service intervals. I can't talk any sense to him.

MR2 Turbo, GD WRX, IS300, NB Mazdaspeed Miata (turbo, decent power to weight) would also be options towards the top of his price range but could probably haggle into it |
