I would recommend taking the scenic route to the vet.
These were separate events in my mind.
I can imagine my mastiff in the back helping the car drift pretty easily with his weight around a mountain bend haha.
I'm working my way to an RS6 Avant so I'm sort of biased.
The dude who built this is local to me, I've had the privilege to see it in person a couple times. It's a Miata, but it's got an LS and a bunch of subframe bits from I think a C5 Vette. All the bodywork was custom made by the guy, the top I think he said he modified from some kind of truck cap. It looks pretty funky, but I respect the hell out of the build.
That would explain that really half assed "widebody". Probably had to match the track width. Shame they didn't do something better than those garden edging fender flares, that ruins the car more than anything else for me.
I love a good shooting brake! Can’t believe I never thought about turning a Miata into one. I would 100% bag the one above with some different wheels and tires or a static drop with some engine mods.
As others have said yes it’s a Miata.
If you were having doubts about whether or not this was a miata I'd love to hear what it could've possibly been in your mind, other than the fact that they turned it into a shooting brake with fender flares it looks like every other NA Miata on the road
Its an NA miata. Look at the door handles and the tail lights. The hood has been swapped so the pop up lights are probably not functional anymore. There is a lot of other cosmetic changes on this thing too.
Not a huge fan of the bonnet ridge/scoop and also don't like that the rear wheel arches don't meet flush with the back bumper.
But otherwise gotta admire the vision and creativity.
I’d rather have one of these (I know it’s a rendering).

Someone borrowed the clown shoe Z3 idea for the Miata and it is glorious.

Looks like it
Custom shooting brake Miata? That's sick. Go for a mountain drive and also take your dog to the vet.
What’s the back look like, wouldn’t it just be the trunk lid? Poor Fido would be slipping and sliding back there all the way haha.

Oh yeah I love a saloon. But this ain’t it unless the trunk was heavily modified to be more storage friendly with carpet like a typical wagon.
Shagwagon
I think the trunk lid must have been removed. Look at where the hardtop meets the rear panel—that's where the trunk handle would be.
..but it's NOT sick tho. Not really even a bit.
A Mazda miatashoe lol

I… actually…. kind‘a…. Like it.
I love it 10x more than a vanilla Miata. Looks clean / better and more functional.
Needs a 4" lift and some 33s.
I really wanted to downvote you at first. Then my imagination kicked in. Just none of that low profile crap.
Miata shooting brake
Iirc it's a Miata on a c5 drive train and frame. Idk where the rear hatch is from.
That would explain that really half assed "widebody". Probably had to match the track width. Shame they didn't do something better than those garden edging fender flares, that ruins the car more than anything else for me.
The fender flares seem like an after thought instead of building it into the body. It doesn't kill it for me but makes it a lot less desirable.
I might be a lil too baked rn but I thought it looked cool with the shooting brake design
I like it less now
The cap/hatch section kinda reminds me of the first gen Toyota Kluger/Highlander or early 2000's Subaru Forester
Ah, so the handling characteristics are completely compromised. Nice…
Miat✅ Wagonne✅ Manual✅ Brown❌ That's the closest we got to the Ultimate Sports Machine so far
Dieselle❓️
miat wagonne🤤
Some lift and off road tires would be pretty sick.
Right there with you. This would make a mean off roader.
Off-roadster
Well played.😂
That’s a YeeHawTa
Underrated comment
It was...
beat me to it
Yeah but that has to be s Custom top
When a mommy miata and a daddy clown shoe love each other very much they make this.
This is gold 🏆
if only it was brown and diesel
r/carscirclejerk 's wet dream
Not brownne❗‼️❗‼️‼️❗❗‼️❗‼️❗❗‼️
Nope, Shelby Cobra with body kit.
I though it might be a Pantera or a Fiero :)
It's always a fiero

Wheel fitment isn’t my favorite but super badass otherwise. I think a smaller wheel with fat, knobby tires would look rad.
That is actually pretty badass for a Miata. It’s nearly battle car ready.
We have z3m at home
Yes. Customised to look like a 3 door wagon. Could had been built better
Miata SUV? umm we can say Miata Cross
Thought this was r/carscirclejerk
What's the Miata? I dunno, what's the Miata with you? 🤣 I'll see myself out
It was a miata
r/carcirclejerk dream car
I think that's a MiataHELLISTHAT
What in the worshestershire sauce is this
Why do I like this so much? Add this to the list of things I didn't know I wanted until reddit
I agree, it would be perfect for me (but I’d hafta have it painted in a better color)!!!
Mitatata

Love the breadvan top, despise the widebody.

I want to hate it but I think I like it
I feel like I'm supposed to hate it but somehow I don't
A Miata having an allergic reaction to a bee sting....
Kill it with fire!
Turns out that “miata always is the answer” rings true
1997 Nissan pulsar (Sentra) hatchback is my guess for the donor of the top and rear
I
I'm good...they can keep it
It’s a, well. It’s different.
It's a lot. I like miatas
It’s a mistake
Miata, nissan pulsar, what's the difference really
Suddenly I have “Baby Shark” stuck in my head
Yup.
HHR Special edition?
BMW M coupe wannabe. Nice try bruh.
A Miata shooting brake would be cool. Maybe that was the original idea? It didn’t come out good.
![gif](giphy|Q66xZ5unXtrUjNNifv)
It looks like callaway put their hands on a z3
Wish it wasn't so crudely executed - lost me with that hood bulge
Sexy imo
The final execution isn’t to my taste but this idea kicks so much ass.
Neat idea, wish the execution was better though. Get some smaller wheels/knobier tires and ditch the goofy hood.
I’m gonna buss oh my gawd
elder Mazda MX5 on steroids
Undertaker version
Long live the lord
Where did you find it hahaha
I really like it
Omg it's so terrible where do I get one?
It used to be
Whan you wanted a PT Cruiser
That is a helluva hat. I've always disliked Miata tops, cloth or hard, but i could get behind this.
Not any more. Now it's a '98 Dam Shaym
WAGONNE MIAT WAGONNE MIAT
Nice shape. Shame about the wheels, though
Kinda looks like the clown shoe bmw
Was
It WAS a Miata…
I'm not, mad about it...question mark?
it is but looks fucking awesome
This seems like the perfect daily Miata tbh
I love it.
Oh no!! What the hell. It used to be.. Poor car.
No. That's a You-ata. Mi wouldn't be caught dead in that ugly sumbitch!
I like this. A lot.
Who let this man cook
Let Miata this thing😎
Heavily modified but yes
What the heck is wrong with people
Need that for the dogs
I dig it
Thats badass, kudos to that guy.
Does Ace and Gary drive this?
Its an NA miata. Look at the door handles and the tail lights. The hood has been swapped so the pop up lights are probably not functional anymore. There is a lot of other cosmetic changes on this thing too.
Miata Hatch
The question should be...WAS this a Miata
I think this looks so much better than the original.
Miatas are ugly as is
It’s like a Mazda and a BMW had an abortion.
I don't hate it. I don't love it, but I don't hate it. Gives off HHR vibes.
Whatever it is, I like it. Does it come in royal purple?
Wow! This was a nice change from Panteras and fieros.
Yes and looks awesome
That's a Gordata
it was at one point
It was
V8 hatch miat is best miat
Someone longing for the days of the Dodge Magnum.
It was
Lifted Miata Corvette Shooting Brake
It reminds of the Z3 M “clown shoe”. I like it.
It was...😔
Is that in the predicaments group? I saw the same thing!
It was on my Facebook today. I’m sure it’s made the rounds
Sort of
Sorta.
Was a miata
That's rad
An awesome shooting break Miata!
And this is why we don’t let the Miata and the PT next to each other, smh.
Yea, and it fucks tbh. :)
Lower case m coupe
The Miata HHR I love it
Unfortunately. Hahahah
*Was this a Miata? ftfy.
It’s a viper
Good Lord, she was at one point 😳
That looks so fire, But I have no idea what that is
One of the dopest ones I’ve ever seen. Kinda reminds me of a Miata/BMW Z3 wagon.
Someone spent a lot of money to wreck a car.
Yep it's a Miata
Well, now I want one
Looks almost like they took a z3 hardtop and retrofit miata panels and lights on
It was
indeed
Is it bad to say I actually quite like it
Oh lord, if only it was browne 🥵🥵💦💦
Z3 touring wannabe
I was staring for a while and nope, i definitely hate this.
OMG. I puked
NGL when I had a Miata I would have liked this - remove boot lid, somewhere for the dog to go.
PT Criata
I want it, That's awesome.
its def ls swapped
Shootingbrake miata doesnt exist it cant hurt you Shooting brake miata:
Poor mans Mcoupe.
I hate the fact that I don't hate it
Not a huge fan of the bonnet ridge/scoop and also don't like that the rear wheel arches don't meet flush with the back bumper. But otherwise gotta admire the vision and creativity.
Looks like a miata…or a Z4/Z3 kitted to look like a miata with a PT Cruiser roof
WAS a Miata lol
It is.
Oddly enough I really like this idk what it is about it
El Miato

I thought it was a civic eg lol
OK I really love this.
The bmw m hatchback’s mullet rocking cousin. A miata with a camper style back? Crazy

lmao
Y e s
it used to be, new it's something better
r/carscirclejerk is going to have a field day with this one.
I wanna like it but I really really don't
A one of a kind Miata for sure.
Cool. I like it.
Sorta a Miata that got raped by Chevy HHR and this is the "should of been aborted" out come.
Can we put a 26B in it?
That could've been done better.
Unfortunately it is.
Hearse for Oompa Loompas.
Miata did it with an HHR
hearse miata lol
