"The special edition, which we're assuming is France-only, is the MX-5 Black & Matte Edition. While it looks like one seriously fancy paint job, we're wondering what the Katana-wielding woman in black is there for. Whatever. Who are we to argue with French fashion?"

Looks pretty awesome.

I love the look of matte black on certain cars... That one, not so much though. :(

I was contemplating putting in a photoshop request to see if someone could make the 'grin' something less goofy looking.

As it stands, while it's not my favorite look, I wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers, so to speak.

^^ what he said! I wish mazda would do something to the front end of the miatas to make them look more aggressive, sporty. I think thats the one thing that still makes it look...chicish/girly...or if you go the extreme...dun dun dun...gay haha.

That shop looks good. I was gonna say just get rid of the chrome lip- and it'd look decent but the chop is nice.
