According to The Car Connection a new Mazda coupe concept we reported was in the works is a confirmed guest at the upcoming Detroit Motor Show. The coupe will be in prototype form — as was Mazda's MX-5 TS concept, a Fiat Abarth doppelganger the company showed in Japan in 2004 (pictured) — but whispers indicate a production model could be ready by 2008.
