That throw-in comment about the GR86 being what the Miata should have been is interesting. Reminded me of what Top Gear (another UK magazine) said in their comparison.

i really just blindly peg the throttle and let off the clutch and 99% of the time it puts the revs right where they need to be. unfortunately, given the d-4s diret injection system, there's no great way to make the motor sound good. my tacoma sounds the same way, though it's got a nice tone to it when the secondary intake duct opens up above 3.5k rpm. imo, the missed opportunity with augmented engine sounds is the lack of being able to make one's car sound like anything within the brands stable, past or present. i mean, who wouldn't want their new car to sound like colin mcrea's tuned impreza?
