This distinctive vehicle is a 2000 Mazda MX-5 Miata, originally designed as a lightweight convertible powered by a peppy 1.6L inline-four engine, boasting 114 horsepower through its stock configuration. However, the unique aspect of this classic roadster lies in its conversion from a compact sportscar to a muscular beast, now packing a roaring GM V8 displacing 6.0 liters and mated to a smooth-shifting six-speed Tremec manual transmission, coupled with a Ford 8.8-inch limited-slip rear end for better traction. The suspension has been fortified with subframes, control arms, and coilovers from Flyin' Miata, while Wilwood brakes ensure it can bring the newfound power under control. Rolling on 15-inch 949 Racing wheels, this V8-powered MX-5 is a true head-turner, offering an exhilarating driving experience that defies its compact frame.
