    That is a more realistic expectation of the new Miata. Mazda is pretty proud of their new Kodo design and I would expect the new Miata to sport similar design cues to the 3 and 6.

    Not a fan of the headlights. Again, as a rendering, it probably bears no resemblance to what the final product will look like.

    What I'm hearing: "We said we were going to build a lightweight sports car because we knew that's what people wanted to hear. In reality, though, we're just going to do whatever the eff we want."

    Car manufacturers are becoming more and more concerned with the gadgets and less with the driver experience. I really hope to see a resurrection in years to come of true car enthusiasts.
    2012: Purchased Miata, Laid off 3 days later. 4th place overall (default!), NWOR SCCA (RTR)
    2013: Budget RTR build, massive increase in participation, 3rd place overall, NWOR SCCA (RTR)
    2014: Suspension and more active competition in STS. 3rd place overall, NWOR SCCA
    2015: Time for some "form" and vintage styling (while still racing NWOR, of course).

    I hope this doesn't end up being accurate, looks like an IS250c.
    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.

    Pretty sure the next gen Miata will NOT have the same Kodo front as the 3 and 6, looks very unMiata

    This thread, just like the ones before, just made me rage!

    TL;DR CLIFFS BRAH:

    nothing is set for engine, hp, weight, front, rear, inside, outside, final design, renderings, original plans out the window, diff renderings from diff sources....... nothing is concrete....... except that they aren't going to deliver. might have new sig...


    Mazda Miata 2015: Mazda will not deliver. if for some reason the stars align, the wind blows in the right direction, they get the ok from the aliens, aaaaand they do get it right; I will eat my words with no hfcs ketchup and chipotle mayo....
