I don't have a doubt that its a performer in what people look for in a mitata. The new miata has about 10lbs*ft of torque more than the out-going miata, but they really only shaved a little more than 100lbs.

So honestly, I have no idea what the hype is all about.
I don't know official weights of the old engine and tranny vs. new engine and tranny, but there is the ~100 lbs right there probably.
