its a $3k option on the car......and you have to have the GT package...which is fine by me...the leather and roof only add around 50 or so lbs and i have taken that weight off already with lighter aftermarket parts...so my car is still super light weight and luxurious enough....if i were to weigh it now i am pretty sure i am sub 2500

looks nice, chris. I'm sure this question has been asked before, but how does the MX-5 stand up to the RX8? Are you enjoying driving it as much?

i miss high revving and the butter smooth transition through shifts......otherwise the cars have the same feel to me...the handling is equal but now i have torque..it was a no brainer cuz the cars are so similar and share so many parts
