New MX5 unveiled!

[hornetrider]

Like.

From the front I like, rear looks a bit odd though. The circular brake lights look out of place and the exhaust pipes could do with being either side, not both together.

Just need to know now what kind of power it will have underneath it.



mid engined?

Technically yes, my griff is the same, engine lies between the axle line's

[Riknos]

Back looks far too Z4-esq to me, like a Z4 combined with RX8 lights.

Front has that Fiesta looking grill!

It took me a little while to decide but I like it from all angles.

Looking forward to more details and seeing one in the flesh.

Looks like a slightly fudged F-Type to me, no bad thing. I like that it's more aggressive than the previous generations

[TheEnd]

The headlights look a bit small, I guess this is just a concept?

[Pommygranite]

Not a concept, the real deal.

I like it - looks like a Honda S2000 had a baby with a Z4.

Like it.

Bit of GY86, S2000, Z4, Alfa $c outside.

Inside I see a bit of Z4.

Overall, fresh, slightly more "manly" (whatever that means). Weight is down which is good. I am sure it will sell well if the handling is there, which I very much expect it will be given their provenance.

Z4? Z3 surely. Doesn't look too dissimilar to what this guy is trying to do.

Specsavers today?

Some more info here. No official power plant info yet but rumoured to be a 2 litre Skyactiv unit with 165bhp, so a fraction up on the outgoing model. I really like the fact they've shed 10% of the eight though, will work wonders for the handling.

True. Good to see the improvement as the current one is not too pretty.

[hotchy]

Iv kind of wanted an mx-5 from the pistonheads hype, never really liked the look though. Now i like this. 3 years of depreciation, and she will be mine.

[lamboman100]

Looks like the lovechild of a BMW Z4 (square rear) and a Maserati (big goppy mouth at the front).

5/10.
