Default MX-5 facelift pictures

I don't care for the new front, but I like the interior change.

It's an improvement, but there has always been one detail about the Miata that bothers me.

The lines of the hood. It just looks like some took a can opener to the front of the car. No sexy lines at all.

I like the new front. It looks nice. A little more agressive than the current one. I LOVE this car and that says a lot coming from an S2k owner.

I like the one Paul has, I like this one too. Just a greatly designed car, sorely missing with the mass of ugly vehicles around.
