Really cool video. Lots of forged aluminium parts in such a competitively priced car. Imagine how much OEM quality forged wishbones would cost for an NA/NB...

Love it. For a car that is often rubbished by the plebs, a lot of thought has gone into its performance and tactility.
Fitting the electric assist directly on the rack and chasing lightness (Colin Chapman would approve) shows serious intent by the designers. Same for the bigger wheel bearings which is like what Porsche discovered long ago and was a plague for those Italian supercars.
Well done Mazda and hope you never drop the ball with the MX5.
