What if the new 2016 mazda miata had a curb weight of 1500lbs and a 4cylinder turbo engine producing 350hp and getting 35mpg for under 20k. I could see this happening! I just hope when it comes out it comes with a sharkfin from the factory

Not as well as the SA/FB

I don't think there's much doubt that if Mazda decides to build a hard top sports car it'll be based off the Miata chassis, the NC is after all a modified RX8 base. The only question would be what they decide on for the powerplant...
