It's a return more or less to the first-gen Miata, but I dunno if I like. They can do better.

 

[Red]

They ruined it.

I didn't know that the miata could be any less masculine, but wow it looks like they found a way!

I was thinking the same thing.

 

[Red]

Exactly. I put it up there with the New Beetle.

Exactly, I guess this is another car for those metrosexuals. 😀

 

[MAME]

I doubt it'll look exactly like that come production time

 

[TubStain]

It's like a bubble on wheels

I think the current miata design is almost perfect.

This is not the next generation Miata. The new Miata will resemble this, but you can't say this is the next Miata.

I really wish someone would bring back retracting headlights.

hmmm back is ok...the front is waaaay to plain and weak

 

[Que-TiP]

i dont care what you guys think. i like it! I would like it more if it had 250 hp.

 

[GTaudiophile]

Rumor has it that it may get a rotary engine. If not that, a 1.8-2.0 litre four with 160-200hp I'd guess. This is before the addition of any super- or turbochargers.

A girl saw me looking at it at work just now...... 😕 She said...."ohh its cute!"

It looks a tad better from this angle though... http://www.autoweek.com/specials/2003_tokyo/mazda/ibuki/pages/IMG_1651.htm
The front end is aweful. WHERE ARE TEH LIGHTS??? There is no style to the front, its just so rounded and PLAIN

You sure she wasn't standing beside you at the urinal?😉

There's no way it'll look like that when/if it gets released.

 

[UNCjigga]

Where's the life-size Ken and Barbie dolls that go with it?

It might not look exactly like that, but even if they use that basic shape I will be disappointed.

*whince*

I was ambivalent before, but this is bad.
