What I mean to say is: Mazda upgrading the 2019 ND with 27hp will insure there will be an MX-5 NE waiting for the guy who bought the 2016 ND to upgrade to.
Whereas the FT86 with no significant upgrades and sales threatened to slump to dangerous cut off levels will not have a gen2 to upgrade to.
I don't know if I'm getting my message across but this is the best I can do.

Says who? Did you ignore the steadily declining sales number for the upgraded models?
You have the Toyota "cut off numbers" handy? Can we see them please?
The fact that they went 8 years between model changes will now drop to 3 because they upped the HP a bit?
No you are not getting the message across because you are not paying attention to what is being said and running upon your own assumptions and biases.
