I toatlly agree,I don't know how I was able to get mine at "S" plan pricing,I know and was told they would sell this for over MSRP if I didn't want it,but they stuck to their word. I was told they would sell it for $100. over MSRP
Speaking of prices paid...I went to several dealers. None of them would budge off of retail on GT PRHT. One even told me that some dealers were asking $1K over invoice.

Personally, I do not accecpt S Plan on PRHT MX-5's, but, I will on rag top MX-5's. The PRHT's are just too rare, and I know I can make MSRP on every one. I do not charge an ADM on them. MSRP will do just fine.

I believe this would actually be an X-Plan discount. S/A/D-Plans are Ford/Mazda employee discounts.
Note: MC design model and is not 100% product correct.
MNAO version is LHD, does not have a side marker lamp and there are no alloy foot pedals.
I think we can easily visualize the North American/LHD version of the car based on these pics. Mazda should have released the final pics by now anyway. I was nice to see SOMETHING.
I had a woman purchase one last week. This was the pic I showed her. I cannot imagine the car will differ too much from what you see.
You can buy a Mazda3 spare from a junkyard (I got mine from Ebay). That spare will work perfectly on the car and fit in the trunk. You will still have to deal with storing the old (flat) tire which will not fit completely in the trunk. Some have suggested a ratcheting tie-down strap will compress the flat so that it does fit in the trunk - at least until you get to a garage. Just another option.
The run flats have NOT been well-received by many buyers. They are hard-riding and EXPENSIVE.

Figure out the sizes that would work, and the lug pattern (4x100, 5x100, 5x113, etc). Take a measuring tape, and I bet you can find one that fits. Best of all it's free, plus you are helping re-cycle that donut.
May be worth a look.
MX-5 Miata: A race package arrives this fall, but racers must wait until mid-2008 for a MazdaSpeed edition. The MazdaSpeed version's 2.3-liter turbo loses some horsepower in packaging the intercooler and larger radiator. A redesign is planned for the 2010 model year when the car must comply with new 2011 rear-offset collision standards.

I want these wheels now but I can't find them anywhere...
Sweet BBS Wheels for MX-5
I just priced out a set of Blizzaks and 16" wheels for $750 (assuming you have a 2006+ MX-5). It will cost you at least $20 a wheel to re-mount and re-balance every time you change tires. So 4 * $20 * 2 times a year = $160 annually. You could easily change the wheels yourself if you had 2 sets. With the wheels costing $344 of the $750, payback on the wheel purchase is 2 years - by eliminating the tire changing costs. So this makes it a no brainer
ENJOY!
I really like the Solistice's styling but I can't get over the fact that you can't fold the top without getting out the car. Deal killer to me.
I've noticed a lot of creases on the tops, so I wonder how well sealed they are.
I should test drive one for the heck of it, now that demand has cooled.
