You need this: Who here needs a wide-body Miata?

Can the world use more wide-body Miatas? If some flare is good, more is better, right?

Here’s your chance to own a 1994 Miata already fitted with big flares. The seller intended to build, and we quote, an “autocross beast.”

The ad also mentions two words: project car.

Sound…

So, we’ve actually seen this car here before. 

I was browsing the ads when it popped up, so I figured I’d share it with the rest of the class. 

Someone here needs it, right?

The wheels, the flares, everything just looks right.

And it is ONLY $1.

LOVE IT!  Just my style...but with an engine conversion of some sort (ahem).  Wrong time for me, but the right car. :(

So my question is about the suspension and wheels. Were the suspension arms extended? Or do the wheels have much bigger offsets? Or are these just super wide wheels? Or??

I like this A LOT.  Maybe more than the 944.

Uh oh.... but your 944 is a 951!

Wide wheels with a low offset. I don't think it was really a function-driven build, it was for style. But it's got that in spades.

It looks cool and all but I bet an ES Miata is faster around the cones.
