and yet, the mx5 is faster around the ‘ring than the 930 was. Still not a sports car?

I don't think this is going to be a crisis but keep in mind China essentially locked millions of people in their homes for a month. I don't think we are going to have that kind of response anywhere here

I’ve heard from multiple sources that this could be a tailwind for AA since they have very little exposure to Asia. Domestic demand is actually up yoy and the thought is that people are deciding to just travel in the states due to the virus. Widebodies will be redeployed to high profile domestic routes which will free up narrowbodies to better backfill the max parking. We might see better margins this spring with lower oil unless there’s an outbreak here domestically.

please keep this on track man. Don’t show cars that are way out of our furloughed price range.

Maybe. Fuel prices going down is good for the airlines no doubt, but I think that today's reduced service in Asia will be tomorrow reduced service to Europe.

They might be about to announce travel restrictions to parts of Europe as the virus is spreading in Italy

Man I’m loving this Miata discussion. You can now order a new 2020 if you’re interested, and for the first time you can option yours with Alcantara throughout the interior of the vehicle.

The Miata is like the wine cooler of sports cars.
