While I was working on Project Rotary Miata, selected 'roadster_sr_lmt_97_opt' as my base car. The only color availible is Sparkle Green Metallic. When I got in game, I noticed a few things different. It looks just like the Miata you can win in the Clubman Cup, except it has a roll bar and GT3 liscence plates, and a racing seat. Is this a car that is not normally obtainable? Because I've never seen it otherwise...
 
And this has what to do with GT4?
 
i also don´t see a connection to gt4...
 
I think it should be in either the hybrids and gameshark forum or the GT3 forum.
 
Ouch, I thought I was in that forum

(this is what happens when you're doing something ant not paying attention :ouch: )
 
Your not the only one who's done that here.
 
Can we still move threads ourselves in this version of the boards or is it a mod only thing?
 
On the bottom left goto Admin Tools> Move/Copy Thread.
 
at the bottom of the thread, near forum jump I believe..
 
Moved, thanks :)

Also, I can't get this Miata off my shoulders, as an expression! :lol:

You actually try to sell it and says 'you can not sell this car'.

OK, here's my best guess... GT3 was probably originally planning to have a Skip Barber Driving School in it, and the Miata I'm using would be your 'demo car' to practice driving maneuvers. Anyone with me on that?
 
There are a few hidden Miatas in the game, one has a little spoiler and an actual Japanese tag on it, it is believed to be a copy one of the game designers actual cars.
 
It's really nothing special, just something different. The only car with an actual tag on it as far as I know.
 
I've got all the secret Miatas in my 'Race Garage'. You can download it by clicking on the link in my sig if you have a Sharkport/X-Port and use NTSC.

If only I could though, the x-port isn't available any more.

Here Below is the Hidden Green Miata With Roll Cage, The one that Mr Chaos is pretty much the same with a Rear Spoiler and it has Japanese License plates! I didn't take a pic of that one though, It is a Must have if your into the Hidden cars in GT3.
 
OK, there is a total of 3 hidden Miatas (ones you can't sell):

The aforementioned Green Miata
A matching (rollbarred) White Miata with Japanese plates
Another white Miata with a small spoiler on the back and Japanese plates (with the front one sort of retro-fitted to the lower grille) and a couple of sitckers on the back and what appears to be a custom exhaust tip

Maybe Polyphony's staff knew these cars could be unlocked and threw their a couple of their own personal rides in for fun :cool:

It should also be noted that their are a total of 16 Miatas, obtainable or otherwise, in GT3 :odd:

Less than 200 cars and 13 obtainable Miatas?

:lol: Yes I suppose so. But then there's about that many skylines/imprezas/evos in road or racing form, so maybe it is understandable.
