Ugly? To each their own.

I saw the new ND Miata on the streets for the first time yesterday. Cemented my decision that the Miata (styling-wise) is not a car for me.

If this car is on the market in Canada when my wife replaces her car I can almost guarantee she would want it.

Also, I think we already have a nickname for it--"Whale Shark"

This car is more "cute" than fierce. I would call it something like baby-bug.

I thought it looked like a fiat too.

Read through it a couple of times but ever saw where it said that. Guess I just presumed from the size that it would be a two seater. That would explain the "bubble" shape that has been said a few times since more head room needed.

I have a 2zz-ge sitting in storage that would go nicely in one of those.

I think I'll wait to find a salvaged one.

Have you ever been around a whale shark? One of the most docile fish in the sea.

Thing that grasp my head around is it's gonna be bout same size as ND Miata (prob less than 90mm bigger)...

How they gonna make it 2+2? Twin don't have space to begin with, they gonna claim they can fit 2 ppl in the back?

& I love this view. Looks mean... yet still cute lol

Car & Driver thinks it's coming with a 1.5 liter engine. So if it's true, then this could really come to the states.

The biggest reason why I have huge doubts the S660 will ever come to the US is because it was built as a Kei car and follows the laws (crash safety). Seems like if the 1.5 liter engine is true, then this car was never meant as a Kei car.

Anyone else notice the boost gauge? Just saying!
