Acually, the 4 rotors are side by side. kind of like this:

|X| |X|\ Front --->
|X| |X|/


Engine 1 is on top and engine 2 is below.

Even though Miatas are well made and have good performance, I still feel guys who drive them play for both teams.

Whenever I think of a miata*, I picture either some bald 40-50 year old with the top down, or just some fruity looking guy.

I don't see anyone on this site being able to pull off driving a miata* with another guy in the passenger seat; and not look somewhat gay...

Nothing against miatas or those who drive em, but I'd have to disagree with the title of the thread.

Don't all miatas come in convertable?

i'm pretty sure all 4 rotors are in a row just like a 3 rotor.. i could be wrong but all the 3 rotors i have seen are like that and i dont think it would work being stacked on top of one another....

I see why you could say that, my buddy Clay drives one and I always rip on him and call him a homo, but then he usually presses the gas and blows my doors off.

and yes, they are all convertables, there is a removeable hardtop that can be purchased, but even then it's still removable. In Japan they have a coupe avaliable, which doesn't look nearly as gay, almost like a baby viper.
