I think the 155 hp story developed because some publication saw the webpage for the Chicago auto show listing the horsepower for the 2015 Miata as 155 hp. All the publications ran with that story claiming that "Mazda has officially confirmed" it, but I've never seen an actual Mazda source confirm it.

Mazda (as far as I know) has neither confirmed nor denied 155 hp despite what the major publications are claiming. And the Chicago auto show has since pulled that figure.

I think it was just bad journalism, but who knows, maybe 155 hp is right.
