Aren't sports cars supposed to be red?

The latest version is getting great reviews in the motoring press in Australia.
Friend of mine has an older model (2005) and loves it.
Like the colour - I had my 1973 Escort resprayed in a very similar colour.

Looks good, Larry. Known at the MX-5 over here - a very popular ladies sports
car, still in high demand.
This is actually my fourth Miata/Eunos/Mx-5, but my first NB, the others were
all NAs. They have a reputation here of being a “woman’s car”. I’m fine with
them being popular with women, particularly attractive women that I might want
an opportunity to chat with.
In the motorsports community there is a saying “the answer is always miata”.
They are fun to drive, get decent gas mileage and are just a little bit more
reliable than an anvil. The best racing I have ever seen is in a class called
Spec Miata. In the last race I did with the SCCA, I qualified mid grid, a
friend was gridded directly in front of me with a qualifying time .030 seconds
faster than mine, the guy next to me was .030 slower. So, on a 3 mile (5km)
track, about .060 seconds which works out to about 10ft (3m) separated the
qualifying times of four cars, or two rows of the grid.
