I've actually met people who assume that the MX5 is fast too.
One drive shows them otherwise.

Never knew the DB7 thing. Unfortunately it's more sad for the Aston than it is good for the MX5.

The clock thing is a PITA - half considering relocating the hazard light switch and replacing it with a clock.
