2015 Mazda MX-5 Spied

A Japanese motorist has spotted what appears to be the next-generation Mazda MX-5 while out testing in Japan.

The next-generation car has a rear deck reminiscent of the first-generation BMW Z4, as well as the second-gen NB Miata, along with the flared arches of the current MX-5. TTAC will be attending the launch of the fourth-generation car next month, but until then, this is all we’ve got.

      Oh how I wish. Plus slap a turbo on it. I know the purist don't agree with going FI, but my '96 Eclipse GS-T was such a hoot when on boost. Just not a fan of soft tops: too squishy, too noisy.

    New MX-5... looks like it fell right under the tree. Only thing I wish for, is less weight, same power or base Eco/Hi-mpg engine and an optional engine of the same Hp as the current 'NC'. Will be seeing it for real in about a month at 'Miatas at MRLS'. Miatas at Mazda Raceway September 5-7, 2014 Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca

  • ToolGuy There was a time when in a place called America there were roads, and they were paved, and they were paved smoothly enough for a vehicle like this. Perhaps our next President will bring back that concept.
  • ToolGuy I suppose I will listen before commenting. (TG, what a fair-minded dude!)
  • ToolGuy "The technology is much more advanced to be better than a role model driver,ā€ā€¢ Do any of you know what a "role model driver" is? No, I guess you wouldn't. šŸ˜‰
  • ToolGuy I might be Batman.
  • Lou_BC Well, I'd be impressed if this was in a ZR2. LOL
