yer sorry i should have defined race but yer i meant a drag since the MX5 handles like a knife around corners.....but like 2bnvd said it would be a close race indeed...so ultimately i think it comes down to the driver and the launch i guess. We can always be hypothetical about it but it will never beat first hand experience so for anyone else looking at the topic plz tell if u raced 1 n wat exactly happened? thanx again for the interesting replies hehe.

Basically just wondering how the race would turn out hypothetically as the stivo has more balls but is a heavier car than the mazda??? anyone had a first hand experience at all??

thanx for the quick reply pple appreciate it heaps! yer ill keep poking around the forum for some more info.... does that mean all the cars were called back and if they dun have the 1's that dun have a silver sticker still sit on 120kw?? and inCiDent were u serious bout only the black ones were 141 kw?? thats odd! my mates 1 is black n he want 23 500 for it........i perosnally think thats a bit hi....what everyone else reckon??

hey everyone im new to the forum and currently on the search for my next car .... a stivo! whilst i have been looking for a while and done a lot of research i have come across the issue of the manufacturing error which occured on the production line for the stivo. it is stated that some came out with a lack of kilowatts (120 insteatd of 141). Now of course, before i do buy the car id like to know if there is a way of telling which vehicles may have this defect! after all a drop of 20kw is quite a considerable amount! if anyone could shed some light on this issue (eg. the manufacturing dates??) it would be greatly appeciated and also speed up the process of the purchasing my stivo! for btw i am currently looking at 2003 sportivo (October rego) with 39,000 k's that i would be purchasing off a friend...what would also be a resonable price ? thanks heaps for your time guys!
