Having owned several Monsters prior to building my FFR, I still have a great appreciation for them. And if I had the garage space, I would still have one for sure.
In the meantime, a nice recent spot on Motor Trend's YouTube channel.

Having just sold mine, I can say they are an absolute blast at a Cobra performance level. Just not quite the same though.

Agree 100% -- some have asked me what the difference is. I liken the Monster to refined rowdiness (sound deadening, AC, power everything, watertight up in 3 seconds top etc.) whereas the roadster is all out raw.....

Bill

Rare to find a true Monster Miata with working AC . Most owners (myself included) removed the AC systems from the car. The rest, yes, I agree 100%
