We named her during the test drive. My wife had her eye on a Miata and I wanted to test the Z first. A dealer had one with 4k on the clock that we took for a test drive. We drove around a bit and I got on a highway off ramp and dropped the hammer in 3rd gear for a nice sprint from about 30 to maybe 90 with a 3-4 shift.

My wife squealed with glee as the wind rushed past and we were pressed into the seats. The exhaust had a nice rumble that turned into a scream as we went.

Coming off the Miata test drive it was quite a rush. The Z is a very pretty car with great curves and a big wide stance. She's a real beauty. But then when you step on it she turns into a roaring beast! My wife exclaimed "what a Strega!". The change in personality was amazing.
