hey everybody this is some with the purge and we're here at the New York Auto Show we just our first big reveal of the show the Mazda mx-5 Aref this car looks a little familiar that's because Mazda released an mx-5 miata last year the difference here is that this has got a target op now if you're unfamiliar with the target --top' porsche started it back in 1966 with the Porsche 911 Targa and instead of your normal hardtop it lifts up moves back and goes underneath an entire back plate that encompasses the entire back windshield it's a little unique and it's a little tricky to understand if you haven't seen it before of course it's not just Mazda and Porsche that have made target stop cars in the past we've seen Chevrolet's Ferraris Alfa Romeos but to see one announced at this show when we were only really expecting just a normal hard top version of the mx-5 these a nice surprise now we don't know too much more about what's going to happen with this car we all we know is that this is a prototype we're not allowed to sit in it unfortunately and the pre-orders will start later that summer otherwise you can expect it to be pretty similar to the mx-5 relatively affordable maybe around 30 or $40,000 and it will basically give you that same kind of roadster performance that thousands or even tens of thousands dollars cheaper than most of Mazdas competitors in this now of course this is just the first and many big announcements this week at the New York Auto Show so to catch all of that make sure you go to the verge calm and head to youtube.com slash the versions which subscribe
