Miata over takes M3

This is one of the Turbo Miatas by Flying Miata. It runs somewhere in the line of 15psi of boost and is bore out to a 2L as aposed to our normal 1.8L I-4.

If you watch the tac right over the steering wheel its pushing 7-9 grand. and the boost gauge is the one on the far right.

Put a turbo on the M3 to make it fair.

Yeah! nothing like under 2 grand(weight) of fun!

Edit: Couldn't find that new GT-looking sport car that weighed in at 2000lbs and 200 hp. Under 35 grand...I'll keep looking.

You mean the Dodge Razor? I can't find the picture of it now. Its off their website. It was going to be a 20K Car.. Rear drive have a 0-60 time in the 6 sec range and was over 200hp.

Or are we talking about a kit car?
