Hi everyone, I was driving "Maggie Mae" (My 'new' '01 Miata) this evening and my best girl posed a very thought provoking question. She asked 'with all the crossover (Rebranded / rebadged) cars that Ford & Mazda make (Explorer-Navajo, MX6-Probe, 323-Laser, Escape-Tribute, etc etc) why haven't they built a Ford 'branded' Miata. Call it the Ford Miara or something. It realy made me think that with the way Ford's numbers are in the crapper... why aren't they on their knees begging Mazda to let them do it. They could make an economy Shelby or Cobra replica built on the Miata frame. Something like this:
Just my 2 cents worth. :-) KN
PS Many Thanks to Paul Davis.. His Miata page rocks!
