    A Concourse can usually be found at an airport. To the best of my knowledge La Jolla doesn't have one. You probably mean a Concours.

    Have to rescue this with something unusual.
    The paint is like the old version of Bianco Fuji for this SP2 with what looks like a Blu TdF livery stripe. Note only the driver gets the blue behind him!

    In this picture the second black Monza SP2 on the right has Rosso for the nose piece and also more Rosso for the two leather seats. This is an Italian market build.

    I think there is no point comparing a benzin Italian Barchetta-type car to an electric Japanese coupé.

    Not part of this thread. Old news anyway; the original Miata paid homage to the Ferrari Daytona. They had up close personal experience with that first Miata project.

    The first Miata was a Lotus copy not a homage to the Daytona. But the Mazda Vision show cars are very good. Too bad Stelantis can't steal one of Mazda's designers to do the new Maserati and Alfa designs. The headlights on the RETRO T33 leave alot to be desired IMO. FYI, I am not a Mazda enthusiast and have never owned one. Credit when credit is due.

    OK so that's Bill Warner, Frank Campanelli, Randy Cox and Kip Wasenko, with the former Chuck Jordan Ferrari.
    Not sure I follow.

    In the early 80's Bob Hall and C. Mark Jordan collaborated on the first Miata. That Fly Yellow Daytona (in Euro spec no less) was a visual magnet...

    Apologies for digressions from the Monza theme here.

    No worries, was trying to make the connection. Tom Matano and Mark Jordan were the principal designers on the original Miata

    I am sure these people have looked at many car. There is no connection between a 365 and a Miata though. The Miata was inspired by the small and light British roadsters of the '60s.

    About 3 in 10 cars were built in the SP1 specification. The total Ferrari said they would built was 499 cars with the client deciding which seating configuration they wanted to order.
