I'm excited. For both the Mazda version and whatever Fiat makes of it too.

Excited to see the new design. If it's anything like the renders, the ND is a pretty strong front runner as my FR-S replacement in a few years.

It's weird. I couldn't care less about the Miata and I'm at work, but I will be watching this for reasons I can't explain. Maybe I'm just hoping it's not better than the FRS.
Either way, I couldn't fit in a Miata to save my life. |

I've always been optimistic that Mazda will get the important bits right (engine, suspension, price) but on the fence on styling, this makes me optimistic on the looks too, I just appreciate anything different:
http://jalopnik.com/the-first-outlin...-th-1630300425 'dem haunches. My guesses: ~170 horses +/-5 horses ~2,400 lbs. +/-50lbs. ~$24,000 +/-$500 base price And all the standard stuff, 6 speed gearbox, soft top, power hardtop to come with clearance for the broomstick test for track events, zero word on a coupe. Only unknowns which could make a difference imo is styling details and whether or not it's N/A or Turbo. My money is on N/A. Edit: Obligatory inline 4 engine, lots of 'SkyActiv' 'technology'. |

I'm gonna go off on a wild guess/rumors and say there will be a choice of two engines. One NA for the purists, and one turbo for the heathens (like me!)
I am probably wrong, but I'd love a turbo. I also would expect it to be better than the FRS/BRZ. Why wouldn't it be? It's a newer car. |
