That looks great!
Front end looks like they smushed a S2K and a BRZ together. It's quite Fiat-y too.
This one finally removes all that chick car smell. The last gen already butched up a little.

Looks like a Z4 now, not a bad thing but it almost feels like the typical miata happy bubbly look is missing

damn they still have the smiley face front bumper although toned down.
taillights reminds me of the previous generation Z4. Needs dual exhausts IMO
Side and interior looks great!

yeah back is kinda weird but I like it it's the closest thing we're going to get to a modern day S2000.

Side really looks like a Z3/Z4. Its definitely lost that "roundness" though, not sure how I feel about that.

I'm gonna have to say, S2000 got it right from the beginning in terms of the look.
Not sure how I feel about this new Miata. Part of me sort of likes it. I guess it's good that at least Mazda is continuing with Miata while Honda axed S2000.
Now where are the specs motherfucker!

Roundness? Good. That was the only thing keeping it from being a truly great car. It was never very good looking...just okay looking enough to not detract from the fact that it's a fantastic sports car. Now it looks good and hopefully it'll be good to drive as well.

Seriously how much more expensive could an Audi-esque poppy uppy screen be to manufacturer compared to a weird looking bolt on afterthought?

Hell, just make it manual lift/close for the screen and I'd be happy.
