UPDATE: The all-new MX-5 HAS NOW BEEN REVEALED.

Mazda’s all-new MX-5 roadster is now just days away from its global debut, with months of reports and rumours soon to be realised or debunked.

Simultaneous unveilings are planned for Japan, Spain and the US. Pesky time zones notwithstanding, September 4 is the date we Aussies can etch into the kitchen calendar.

What can we expect? Well, for the event, we'll get pop group Duran Duran - another icon of the 80s - providing the soundtrack.

As for the car itself, nobody knows for sure, with Mazda so far handling one of the most masterfully secure model launches in motoring history.

Still, no shortage of reports and rumours have surfaced over the past year. For a preview of what we might see this week, here’s a round-up of the best.

Styling

Unofficial speculative renderings of the new ‘ND’ MX-5 have been flying thick and fast for almost as long as the current ‘NC’ generation has been on the market.

Some have proposed a move to Mazda’s sharp new ‘Kodo’ design language, first previewed by the sleek Shinari concept and now worn by the brand’s latest models.

Others have pointed to a return to the MX-5’s design roots, embracing and evolving the little roadster’s classic ‘soapbar’ looks.
