That is very cool. I saw a couple of the last gen Paganis in Geneva. The design details were amazing, I stared at the side view mirrors and wiper arms for a good 5 mins. That car and the new La Ferrari were probably the two most interesting vehicles I've ever looked at.

I saw it again!

This time driving past in another part of town while waiting for my car to be washed.

So nice.

One of those 0 degree V6s. Or maybe he pulled two plug wires?

First one of these I've seen. It was parked outside a restaurant out in the suburbs. Not sure I'd have left the roof open with the pollen situation up here.

I have no idea, but that looks like a de Dion rear end.

Well, I wouldn't say that you have *no* clue.

It is, in fact, a De Dion. It is also the first car ever registered in Quebec--hence the license number.

You know, it occurs to me that the Miata isn't even available for sale yet. I didn't think to look at the rear plate, but this was probably a press car.

It looks awesome in person.

I've really liked the lines on the ND and think it's the best yet styling wise. It'll be interesting to see how it drives.
