I think the car is a lot more appealing.
The interior seems a LOT better, although the steering wheel and instruments resemble the Z4.

Hope the handling remains as good as the old one, that was elected by Autocar Magazine has Britain's Best Handling Car!!

not bad.. resembles the roadster concept they revield a year or two back.. interior is definately nice.. what engines are they puttin in that thing?

Yep, it resembles the Ibuki prototype.

I heard of a 1.8 126bhp, and a 160bhp version. Don't know if it's just that.

I think the MX5 deserves something like a 1.8 200bhp

Something not much heavy, but around the 200bhp mark.

i think it deserves some rotary power.. :) i know chances are very slim.. but it would be a damn fun car to drive

Rotary Power.... not a bad option.
It would have a light engine, but yet capable of developing some BIG horsepower.

But, I don't know if Mazda want to risk the spectacular fame of the Miata in putting a potencially non-reliable engine in their best seller.

:)

Yep.. it would be an S2000 killer! ;)

well i hope they would introduce a mazdaspeed version of it like they did with the current miata. and yes 200 hp seems appropriate :D

great car, any guesses on a price range?

using the rotary for the mazdaspeed would be money. either that or offering it as an option opposed to the normal four-banger.
still tho, despite its great handling, I think its a car for little girls. It looks so childish. Wasn't a fan of the old MX5 either, even tho I respect it :|

I think this is ugly, especially the front - Saturn VUE headlamps. Eeeurgh.

Interior is nice.

I'd take a current shape Madzaspeed Miata over this new one!

Mazdaspeed? Don't know it... have pics and specs of it?

Very nice car :D
They should do something with 200 hp.
It would be a killer.

I don't like the front end too much...the Ibuki concept managed to keep the look of the original and more recent Miatas, but also look new. This looks a little too fussy, and what's with the fucking auto-gearbox!?!?!?!?!

Look at Mazda US website

The tan plastic looks very cheap, like in the current model.
additional pictures... (for TT ;))
