Excellent pics! It really looks far more "muscular" than the previous cars. Almost has a hint of S2000 in it. I like.

I just watched the worldwide video launch on the web, and the car on display had seven (dual) spoke wheels. They looked better than those ten spoke jobbies pictured here. They said the car is bigger, 10kg heavier, has more boot space and is 47% stiffer than the old model.

Looks the goods.

Looks mean!! Love the aggressive stance. Anybody know what engine is in the new MX5? Spoke to my buddy that works for Mazda UK, he has seen the new MX5 and it very much smitten by the new look.

Mazda MX-5

The new MX5/Miata is both quite similar to its predecessor and yet also rather different.

Because it is based on a shortened version of the RX8 platform, the new car is far broader of track which gives it a significantly more masculine and less lithe feel to the car it replaces. This is accentuated by the larger wheels, more substantial body side section and RX8 style wheel-arch treatment.

But the car is also very similar to the previous MX5, particularly in its rear aspect and a front lamp graphic that stems directly from that of the first generation car, and is very similar to the Ibuki concept car shown in Tokyo in 2003.

A logically conservative new design that looks like its newfound more masculine design identity will broaden its market appeal, if potentially also reduce some of the uniquely lithesome and feminine appeal of its quintessential predecessor.





shortened RX8 platform...... you wonder if they are gonna make another car wif another shortened RX8 platform.....heh.... RX7?
