I think there are much bigger problems if you'd ever walk up to anybody and say "hi, I drive _______."

not sure if the brand gives the lexury feeling people suppose to get...

I don't know, it is a bit like choosing between sky or Z4. I think people who wants to show would get Z4, just because it is BMW. It is all about showing for some people who gets this kind of car.

The miata historically has had less power. Currently it is up around the 170 hp mark in the mazdaspeed version and the new generation. The sky and the solstice are competition for the miata. However, both will weigh about 400 lbs more. The solstics will be a better overall car, but the sky is sexier.

Correct, also the Solstice will have a GXP, GTP or GT (one of those) with a Turbo charged 2.0 Ecotec, rummors are of about 240-250 HP. So more likely than not the Sky will too. Remmember this is the type of car that Saturn wanted to bring the 2.0 S/C on insted of the Ion Redline.

Wow there... have some proof? I have always heard about it being a in house design.

As a matter of fact the guy that started in the development of the Solstice later went and joined Mazda.
