Thoughts? The "style Cb" looks gross, IMO. It probably won't come to the US anyway, though.

front end looks terrible, reminds me of a catfish

FRSNewb 02-10-2015 12:03 PM

I think I just threw up a bit..


On a side note, the 2016 model doesn't much different than my current 2013 model lol

I agree that it looks a little wimpy. They are very clear that the mechanics and such are not changing other then this bit of good news - "the basic performance of 86 in pursuit of fun, but will remain running" (translations are hysterical sometimes).

Some major cosmetic changes but cosmetic all the same. At least it is an option and not the whole line up that changed.
They still have not touched the soul of the car just like they have always said they would not!

I would drive one. Black of course, with a spare tire always fitted in the rear.

That was my first thought when I opened the link! "Why an old Miata? Ohhhhh wait a second here!"

I liked the limited orange..

The front end does not match the rest of the car. Looks out of place and boring. Glad I have mine. The bumper and color is what sold me on the FR-S over the BRZ.

Dake 02-10-2015 01:23 PM

I don't honestly believe they'd release this.

From what I could figure they are still making the regular as well those are just a special edition.
