I managed to get a British Racing Green, Special Edition with leather seats,
air con, wood, CD and so on at the UK price of a base MX-5. The BRG machine was 
only produced in limited quantities for Europe and the States, but was (is?)
still available in Japan. I guess the price difference is not so interesting
to those lucky enough to enjoy the US prices !

She is beautiful ! (but looking a little sad right now)

My dealer is checking up on the compatibility of Eunos/MX-5 parts with Mazda
Japan. If anyone has heard of any compatibility problems, please let me know.
I've heard that there are some differences between Miata and MX-5, but thats
another story !

On a separate point, TWR (a UK company specialising in Jaguar parts) has 
recently announced a new hardtop for MX-5/Miata. These feature air vents in the
rear side columns. They are so confident with thier product, they price them
higher than Mazdas own ! Has anyone had experience of these ? Is there a similar
product in the states ?
