that was the impression I'd gotten also. that was one artists version of a chopped Rx8/miata would look look like..
Not that I do know what It's going to look like, but I imagine the front will be more inline with the protege5/mazda6 angular look maybe with a curvacous body. (I have a picture in my head, just can't describe it)
do know that it is supposed to be a fair bit larger than the current miata, but have the HP to back it up..
I just want to know how they're going to make a miata & an Rx7 form the same platform that are significantly different.. (same body different powertrain doesn't count.)
check out this thread:

there are other threads in that forum that discuss the next miata, and you should really take notice of what "bwob" has to say. he is Bob Hall - "The Father of the Miata", and he still has connections inside at mazda on the miata design crew. the next miata MIGHT be bigger, but no garantees that it will. it MIGHT have more power, but again it might not. it WILL continue with the miata philosophy of a light wieght, affordable roadster.
oh, and it appears that the platform sharing with the RX-8 has been scrapped.
