Definitely. It already has a roof that does not provide much structural rigidity.

I would definitely say that it is using the ND MX-5 Miata's chassis from Mazda at this point.

Everyone would still go wild if it is announced it will have the ND MX-5 Miata's chassis.

The interior honestly looks near identical, which is leading me to believe that.
