I read about 'charged Miatas beating 5.0s. I'm curious how stock Miatas do.



How would a stock 1.8L Miata fare against the following (in other words, who would win in, say, a 1/4 mile with drivers of equal ability):



Stock 1.8L Miata vs.



1) Z3 4-cyl

2) Z3 6-cyl

3) Mustang 5.0 (4.9)

4) anything else sporty you can think of. i.e. Vettes, Camaros, etc.



I love my car the way it is, I'm just wondering when I should rev my engine at somebody.
