Maybe I didn’t quit word that right. The Miata looked like nothing on the road.

I don’t recognize it as looking like any other car but it doesn’t have any excitement to it. I remember when I saw the first Mazda Miata. It looked like all the prototype future cars back then. Nothing looked like it. Some Chinese companies need to pull off that presence to get some respect world wide.

I thought the N1 was ssangyong based?

Looks good though.

I have to disagree a bit about consumer tastes. a v6 probably gets 18/27; a 1.8L turbo might get 18/30. Marginal improvement at highway, but almost no improvement in the city.

I suspect the preference for smaller engines is more about taxes or some other regulation.

Making cars LIGHTER — much lighter — is the easiest way to increase fuel efficiency.

A great looking car, it looks in my opinion much better than the 550. This car is more balanced and the wheels finally don’t look too small compared to the car, as is unfortunately the case with the 550. An MG version of this 350 would form sure look awesome !
