Am I the only person who wishes it turned out more like this?

And I know this is so not Oppo, but are they dropping the retractable hard top? Because I love mine.

I wish it had a more typical Mazda face. I like the rear of the new one though.

I feel exactly the same. I love the new rear! But this new face... I dunno. And where's the happiness!?

I think my only problem with that render is that it looks like they just raided the parts bin of their other cars. Not that it's a bad thing, since I really like haw Mazdas cars look right now, but I like the idea of the Miata looking different.

I like the Boxter-esque rear deck, but the Front is screaming 2015 Mustang.

I don't like that face. At least the ND has a smiley face, no matter how squinted it's eyes are. I want a god damn ND Fastback!

It looks wrong what ever the front is.

Honestly I don't care what it looks like. I want to know how it drives and what's in it.

I like this. Even though it's a bit angry and that metal-looking trim thingy that connects the taillights are on every other car nowadays. Apart from that, its not bad.

I'm like 99.99% certain it will be completely awesome and I will love it more than anything ever.

But you own an NC, your opinion is irrelevant.

Most fun to drive new car I've ever had! You can't get a new car like an NA. Yet! #ND

They got the profile right. I'm holding off judgement for the front until I see one in person (the cutline on the hood is pretty weird - I'm guessing it's that way to make room for the Alfa grille).

You're definitely not the only one, I posted the same thing on all the debut threads. I'm not sure I'll ever warm up to the real thing. The NC is infinitely better-looking, and this render is worlds better than what we got.

I do like the funky rear of the new ND, but I'm not loving the face. Perhaps I'll warm up to it!

I agree with you, but it may turn out like the new Cherokee did. It may just not photograph well.

I am sure you are not the only one that thinks so... but I do like the new one a LOT. This render makes it look like a sedan based car. The actual ND is quite pretty in my opinion. And before everyone starts flaming me for that, I do own both an NA (93-LE) and an NC (13-GT)... and yes, the NA is prettier.
