It finally took the Miata 15 years to evolve into the S2K look-alike

It's nice cuz it's new. But the rear is disturbingly ugly. The front isn't bad. The main thing though, it doesn't look as girly as the older models. They really should consider making a full on hardtop for this car.

It sure does sound like a turbo induction sound, doesn't it?
if it comes with a small turbo changing the exhaust and tune should make a drastic change in performance

Great looking car, light and a pure sports car!


Do they have any horsepower data yet? I wasn't sure how much it cost? I thought it was around 30K

I like the looks of it even if it does look a little like a Z4. I've read rumors it will have both a 1.6L and 2L engines available.
