It's really a Mazda Miata all dressed up, but I think it looks really good. What do you think?

I think you nailed it. Dressed up Miata. Is is badge engineering? Could have fooled me.

Same car,but how much more than a Miata???

Actually, from the pictures I think it looks better than the Miata. I've always been a fan of the Mazda Miata, and I really do like the new one except it looks a bit too much like the BMW Z-4. I really think the Fiat has captured the essence of what the original 124 looked like and updated it. I really like it.

I'll probably never buy one, I've had too many Fiats already, but I do like the looks of it.

I am a little surprised. It looks like a cross between a Miata and a Chrysler Crossfire... had they made a roadster.

I've never been a fan of the Miata's looks, especially compared to the S, so this car doesn't impress me, either.

I like it. I agree that it looks better than the Mazda.

If I'm reading it correctly, its got a Fiat engine with a turbo. Doesn't give it much more HP (5), but the torque is up by 36 ft/lbs.

Its got a "manual top"??????

And.... ParkView® Rear Back Up Camera+ (Rear View Mirror) <== almost makes it sound like the backup camera is in the mirror!

You're close. If this is the system I think it is, there is a monitor built into the mirror. While it's not the largest (obviously) monitor in the world, it does give you a view of the area directly behind the car.
