The truth is that Mazda had the conviction to make this car RWD regardless of development costs because that is the best way to make it perform - best way to keep its fan base.

BMW should too.

might have to pull your " CAR GUY" card for not knowing that the Miata is RWD. it's been out for just a LITTLE while..
