Looks great…goodbye it seems to those awful wheel arch extensions and slitty mk3 lamps.
Terrible fan art:

Recent Japanese speculation:
I like it and would buy it.
Back on for 2013 and not 2015 but still looks rough…

looks stunning. like the big wheels too.
not keen at all…
If they cut the grinning grill size down by about 40% it would be OK.
Turbo lag could be a problem - hated the Audi TT 1.8 for that reason.
Not keen at all. Hugely disapointed with the 1.3 and the 1.5 - I would like 2.0 or even 3.0 to go after the Z4. I want a bigger Boxter-beater with more features.
Who are Mazda going after as a core market?
maybe a twin-turbocharged 1.5 would do the trick. i can’t comment on the 1.3… it’s a bad joke
i would be content with a 2.0 T
Too dumpy. And I bet there’s no spare wheel …
A blast-from-the-past; a previous “scoop” on a baby MX5:
All of the ND scoops have actually been photoshopped NCs (merged with various Mazda concepts); at most they’ll indicate that the NC will be in for a facelift, which is not particularly interesting.
Here’s what happened before:

Miata.net scoop; still from a dealer video in late 1997:
Mid 1997 scoops picked up by the MX5OC:
Here’s the actual NB prototype, as it looks in 2012:

I like this, rx7’ish back end.
M-m
I though the pictures of the ND were ugly, until I saw an appalling site on the roads today. I couldn’t believe it so I googled it. Our deity’s help us if the MX5 looks anything like this, I can’t describe how appalling it looks. … http://www.mini.co.uk/model-range/coupe/
“Bring Back Michelloti” campaign, anyone (designer of most of the best-looking sports cars of all time)
No, I’m afraid that this new impression of the mini seems to be very true. They’ll be doing an SUV of it soon. Oh, the irony…
Incidentally, I’ll see your Michelloti and raise you a Guigiaro 
Trumped by Pininfarina !!
Is that why the Delorean looks like an Esprit clone?
Maybe - at least Wikipeadia agrees with me that the A40 was way ahead of its time (hatchback) …
