    I dig it. What's up with their front windshields are they polarized or something?

    Vert vette, vert miata and now vert slk sixer? You couldn't have a more opposite taste in sports cars than me. Are they at least manuals? If not...well

    I know It's amazing that it is. My Uncle was part of the Porsche Club of America & I used to go to his races. The Miata club would be right after them on the track. The ultimate Low Budget racer.

    I got tired of it and never liked the black wheel look. I got it for a great price so I overlooked some things Like RED I did not want a third roadster in RED. Both Vettes were red.

    The 12 Miata SE comes that way so spending a grand to replace the wheels would screw with the car's heritage with only 450 of them made. Miata buyers like stock cars. Especially SEs.

    I don't know about the front window but the glass panorama top has adjustable tint. Press a button and the glass gets darker. Something in the glass technology uses current to align electrons somehow and darken or brighter the light coming through the top. I intend to tint the side windows only Probably 27%

    We almost have the same story except my wife has one SUV. and she loves her CRV, I leased it. She does not like driving the roadsters,

    If I can get the same lease on a new one we will go there. She drives 10K a year doing gigs, I am the one with multiple vehicles. From three Harleys (Sold all of them except for the Sporty) to my Vettes and roadsters. I will keep this two years. Bought a warranty out to four years so selling it will be easy, I am thinking $200 a month depreciation until after March when roadsters sell at higher prices. I bought my Miata and the SLK deep into Fall So deals were a lot better,

    My wife had three RAV 4s. When the new RAV 4 was released my dealer was not budging from MSRP so we went to Honda and beat Toyota's lease by $100 a month........She then drove a CRV EXL Nav,,,, and was hooked. No more RAVs Which is a shame becasue I am well known at Toyota (for good reasons) and would love to pick up a Rav for here at a sweet lease. I had to travel 120 miles to get a deal on her 14 CRV.....Hopefully the local dealer will take the hint and give me what I want becasue the Charleston Dealership easily beat them. But I give a dealer ONE chance to sell me a car. I don;t get involved emotionally and will walk away

    The MB/BMW Dealership treated me right but I did not buy the first visit, They wanted $34K Certified which is fair, I offered $32000 OTD, and walked. The next day they called and went with my deal which allowed room to buy an ESC at another dealer LOL..Realize though Sales Tax is capped at $300......so for those who pay thousands in taxes this would have been a much more expensive car.

    Years back I bought a 2006 BMW Z4M..The car was a manual 6speed, pretty fast 345HP, looked good, high quality and a blast to drive. But I sold it 3 months later because it kind of made me feel a little less like a man..... For some reason, the little 2 door Miata's, Z4's, fiat's, Benz's and so on, just should be driven by sisters, girl friends and wives!:benchpress:

    OK so YOU felt like less of a man so all two seat roadsters are for girlfriends and wives? MMM OK Sounds like more of a personal issue. Hope you get over it.:thumbsup:

    :militarypress:There are a lot of sweet roadsters out there. The new Fiat 124 Spyder is one of them

    I prefer white, Especially on the smaller cars. They can sit a long time between washings and still look good. Silver is my second favorite, I had two Red Vettes and a red Miata, Time for a change,

    I have always bought white when available though, Looks great at night and does not need washing and/or detailing more than once a year,

    ahh screw everyone giving you a hard time. You buy what you like.

    My old supervisor had and SLK and it was a blast to drive. It had great speed and was smooth on the freeways. My choice of Roadster would be a 350zHR
