This list is very close to the list for my car in most respects, so I like. But you should have a better opportunity than me for a Kammback because your Miata is convertible. Couldn't you build a nicely curved and tapered top? It could come off as easily as the stock hardtop, but have some of the ideal aero lines often discussed on this site. And congrats of the new child too! But I have to agree with Frank Lee too... my wife and I got buy with this two door coupe when our daughter was a baby... and I remember epic road trips with my two brother, my mom, our dog and cargo in a 1975 VW Bug. It can be done!

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
