Not bad... it actually seems to respect the heritage of the original Spider. The 2017 Miata follows the typically Japanese trend of looking for relatable "faces" in cars; not a big fan of that.

What I foresee is a fine roadster with a potentially temperamental Abarth engine. Time will tell if that powerplant will be the car's big "BUT". It puzzles me why didn't they make the original Miata engine a standard and have Abarth be an option.
