Fin Five-Speed artikel om 2009 udgaven af MX-5'eren!
Jeg plejer ikke at være så meget til sølvgrå, men damn den nye sølvgrå farve er flot på MX-5'eren. Jeg kunne altså godt blive fristet...
Jeg fandt også nogle andre tiltalende ændringer:
Enhanced engineering to enable the driver to enjoy the full potential of the engine performance:
• 500 rpm higher rev limit and the raised engine speed at max power
• Introduced a forged crankshaft, fully floating pistons and newly designed valve springs
Sportier engine sound that responds more crisply to accelerator inputs:
• Surge tank rigidity optimization, new forged crankshaft and ISE, Induction Sound Enhancer (for 6MT)
Smoother shifting feel with brisk and high-quality steering feel :
• With 6MT, the meshing surfaces of the 1st–4th triple-cone synchronizers are now carbon coated, and the 3rd–4th synchronizer diameter has been increased.
• A lower front roll centre and retuned suspension make the car`s response to steering inputs more linear and enable the driver to precisely trace desired lines. The yaw and roll also feel more natural, producing a higher-quality ride Improved quietness
