Steve:
This is all an *IMHO* statement, and worth every penny I'm charging you for it!
The writer of the piece on PC's may have confused the Miata with the 323/Escort.
As you likely know, those two cars have shared some componentry in recent years,
as did the MX-6 and the Probe. I don't know which "unsuccessful" Ford product
he'd be referring to, as the Probe was a definite success and the Escort, well,
they sold quite a few of 'em. Maybe the "Aussie" Capri from that same time
period, which never got off the ground?
And, as we all know, the Miata is not a *FORD* design, it's an MGB!
Hey, I said IMHO!!!!!

"Lucretia MacEvil" #13 MGB (and She resents being called a '1971 Miata'!)
