I too am eagerly awaiting my issue of Miata mag to check out this 
article but I recently dropped by the local Mazda dealer to check out 
the new 94, steal a brochure and I feel this effort justifies me in 
throwing in my 2 cents...  :)

IMHO (finally figured out what this acronym meant), the new alloy 
wheels on the 94 are a definite improvement over the standard wheels on 
the 1990-93 models. They appear finer in detail which equals "lighter" 
and "sportier" in my mind and eventually equals "quicker" and "better 
handling." Not so much in reality, you understand, but in perception. 
But then again, perception *is* reality....

Another opinion tossed to the wind...

One more subject to add to my discussions of yesterday:  A while back I
had criticized Mazda prematurely for increasing the power and weight of
the 94 Miata.  Well, after reading about the details in the latest mag,
IMHO they are doing the right things.  Seems to me to parallel the types
of incremental improvements that Porsche has always done with their cars,
and seems like they are responding to educated consumers' wishes.  I am
happy, though, to have my "original" 91.
