I can't wait to see it

Sure beats a dead reveal.

I think I'm more anxious about the specifications more than the appearance.

[thrdeye]

It's a Mazda. It will have a great suspension, but need about 40 more horsepower and may or may not be geared well.

No s**t. That reveal sucked ass.

But we got to hear so much Duran Duran!

Mazda is moving away from the Lotus Elan and more towards the BMW Z3/Jaguar F type

The new Mazda Z3F should be lighter than previous Miata, but no exact specs were released in this fashion show

[flier129]

Confirmed to be 220lbs lighter than the NC, so it will be around 2200lbs. No confirmation on the engine yet.

It's also a 4-lug which makes for a weird choice for wheels.

I thought all Miata's were 4 lug

[Josh_McCRX]

Walter, NCs are 5 lug.

I'm starting to wonder if the 4 lug on the car they introduced means anything at all. It's not the exact production car they revealed. Going back to 4 lug on this car would be backwards in my mind. It is definitely a 17x9 car... not a 15x9 car.

[flier129]

Not really backwards, just weird. They did it to save weight :-\ There's some 4x100 17x9 options, but only a fraction compared to the 5x114 17x9 options.

Depending on the engine, I may be pushing really hard to get a ND for STR
