MX-5 'Retractable Fastback' unveiled in New York, gets 911 Targa-style roof

# data.attributes.body.value
This is Mazda's idea of a hard-top convertible. Meet the new MX-5 'Retractable Fastback', named in honour of its fancy new roof system.

What you get then, is a fourth-generation MX-5 with a sort of 911 Targa-style top: at the push of a button and at speeds of up to 6mph, the rear hatch pops up, and the entire roof folds away automatically into the rear.

If you're concerned about such things, we're informed the boot space doesn't suffer as a result, offering up the same space as the soft-top MX-5. But roof up or roof down, you have to admit, this thing looks rather lovely, no?

It gets the same engine line-up as the soft-top too, a choice between the 129bhp 1.5-litre and 158bhp 2.0-litre petrol engines, matched up to a six-speed manual gearbox, with the option of a six-speed automatic. There's no word on weight, but we suspect it might have crept up over the standard car's 1,075kg figure, taking the centre-of-gravity with it.

Still, there's a fancy new 'Machine Grey' paint, which uses three coats and requires further explanation, but you don't really care about that. Look at the roof! Reckon this will be the MX-5 to have?
