Miata. A 1st gen RX-7 does not have a trunk, and the bumper & side front markers line up. The Miata has a trunk and the FTP/turn signals are on a different plane than the side markers.

It's true...

When I drive in severe winter weathe (in my FB), I spend about 25% of my concentration driving (I have NEVER lost control of the car, and NEVER gotten stuck), and about 75% of my concentration looking out for, and avoiding all the OTHER morons on the road (never been hit in the winter either)...

Point of interest, I've talked to a bunch of tow-tuck driving friends, and as it turns out, usually the first, and the majority of ditch calls they get are AWD/4WD SUV's...
