     Aloha,
     
     I picked up these web site references in the 10/16 edition of the 
     auto trade magazine "Automotive News".  For a tour of the Tokyo 
     show visit "URL: http://www.carmag.co.jp".  Another site with 
     Tokyo show stuff is "http://teleparc.infoweb.or.jp/tms/".  I have 
     not visited these sites so cannot say much about them (my computer 
     is limited to text access on the Web so there is little point.
     
     By the way, I oppose blatent advertising on the web, I love silver 
     miatas, and am alarmed by how many people have a shimmy problem 
     with their cars (note: the first generation of BMW 3 series--up 
     until 1984--suffered a similar chronic problem.  One person's 
     reference to Yokohama tires reminded me of a BMW 3 series driver i 
     met who found that Yokos were much smoother than Pirellis and 
     attributed the difference to the Yokos being consistently rounder 
     than other tires).
     
     One final question: has anyone ever rolled their miata?
