I can’t find an angle I like at all. Having said that though, and I’ve said many times, I’m glad other people do and I hope it sells well.
I’ve always been in the same boat with the Miata. There’s just never been a generation of that car that I liked, so I’ve never owned one. Don’t even like the ND. I like the front but think the rear is a train wreck to my eye.
It’s really an individual thing, looks. I love my MR2 Spyder, and a lot of people hate that car. Honestly I’m underwhelmed by a stock MR2 as well, but lower it and it’s a pretty sharp little car. And with under 2200 lbs and the mid-engine drivetrain, damn it’s like you’re wearing the MR2 more than any other car I’ve owned. I love my S2000 and my 17 pp BRZ too, but the 2022 BRZ just doesn’t please my eye. Maybe the 86 will, but I sorta doubt it. I do hope it sells well though. Thankfully for the 2022, I’m only one guy and nobody at Subaru or Toyota cares what I think , and rightfully so.

2ZZ swapped MR2 Spyder has been tempting.
