I watched this also. Very nice. Need those front bumper corner splitters on the Z.

Why is it still smiling at me? Make it stop. MAKE IT STOP!!!

That being said, I do like how she curves at all the right angles... and the headlights impart a more sinister look (in a good way).

Still... I can't get over how the miata has that "face" look.

No 100% confirmation from Mazda yet, but some rumors are saying it might add a turbo this generation, so I would bet 220HP probably.

I have never been fond of the Miata but this...this is hot. Well done. Now...make a V6 I can turbo to 600hp and I'll buy one! LOL.

...just when I thought Miata couldn't look more sissie. Argh! It is a cute little bugger. Hope quality is better than last version. My mx5 interior self destructed about a year after I bought it. Also hope the motor is more refined than a truck motor this round. I'd be hard pressed to ever buy another Mazda after two very bad experiences with Mazda products. Both were lemons.

IMO this looks way better than the 370zr ....way better than the hideous 350zr which looks like they just chopped off the roof. Lines are elegantly proportioned, kinda looks like a mini Jag f-type. Great job Mazda now for the 4th gen RX7 please...
