Mazda MX-5 Miata Special Edition 2011
On the heels of its recent milestone announcement of 900,000 MX-5 Miatas being produced, Mazda North American Operations (MNAO) unveiled the 2011 Mazda MX-5 Miata Special Edition, a limited-run model of only 750 units. The Special Edition continues the MX-5‘s history of being a dynamically-engineered, enthusiast-approved roadster whose price doesn’t discriminate and whose luxuries are not stripped. Special Edition-exclusive interior touches include gray door trim and heated leather seats with gray stitching, a black leather-wrapped parking brake and steering wheel with contrasting gray stitching, chrome treatments to the air vents and instrument cluster as well as aluminum pedals (6MT only). Special Edition models are only available in Sparkling Black Mica or Dolphin Gray Mica, two new MX-5 colors, and are packaged with 17-inch Bright Finish aluminum alloy wheels.

2009 Mazda MX-5
The 2009 Mazda MX-5 (they don’t want us to call it a "Miata" these days…) marks the 20th Anniversary of the little roadster that could. While it has grown ever so slightly over the years, the MX-5 still carries the instantly-recognizable mug and perfectly balanced handling it is famous for. Great handling aside, the MX-5 Miata has been criticized by some enthusiasts for its lack of straight-line power. While the 2009 MX-5 still carries a modest horsepower figure at 166 bhp, redline has been raised by 500 rpm to a phenomenal 7500 rpm. Peak horsepower burns some MX-5 rubber at 300 revs per minute higher, too, at 7000 rpm. Holding onto gears longer will allow those who wish to push the MX-5 to its limits slightly greater performance times and a more versatile car on the track, and on the road.

Mazda MX-5 Niseko 2008
The latest Mazda MX-5 can truly be described as an all-weather, all-year sports car with its enhanced heating and air-conditioning systems.

2006 Mazda MX5
The 2006 Mazda Miata is still the standard when it comes to delivering top-down thrills without breaking the bank. Huge fun factor, precise steering and handling, low base price, economical to operate. For 2006, the MX-5 gets its first top-to-bottom redesign since its launch in 1989. The roadster gains a roomier cockpit but still tips the scales at under 2,500 pounds. Beneath the hood, the MX-5 benefits from an all-new 170-horsepower, 2.0-liter engine. Side-impact airbags and ABS are now standard across all trims. Read more: 2006 Mazda MX5

2000 Mazda MX5
The Miata is about simplicity in design and operation. It’s about having fun behind the wheel. It’s about feeling free and young on warm summer nights. Not a serious car, the Miata, but that’s part of its charm. Redesigned from the ground up in 1999, the 2000 Miata is faster, more rigid, and more functional than the previous generation. But it doesn’t stray too far from the original Miata’s heritage of offering reliable and fun transportation. Droning trips on American interstates are not the Miata’s forte. But with a lowered top and an open road, the Miata has few equals. The 140-horsepower, 1.8-liter engine is perfectly matched to the suspension and steering. The Miata is simply a joy to pilot on curving roads. When equipped with the 15-inch wheels and the suspension package (which includes items like a Torsen limited-slip differential and upgraded shock absorbers), the Miata’s performance envelope is higher, but some fun is lost in not being able to adjust the tail easily via the throttle.

1998 Mazda MX-5
Compact size and light weight are the most important elements in the creation of a car recognized for its superb performance, dynamics, efficiency and driving enjoyment. Therefore, rigid discipline was applied to the car’s configuration, outer dimensions and mass. The new MX-5 is outwardly little changed from the original car, measuring 3,975 mm long, 1,680 mm wide and 1,225 mm high on the same 2,265-mm wheelbase. The interior most aptly deserves the description "cockpit," as it has just the right amount of snugness to impart a feeling of "Oneness. The MX-5 adheres to a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive configuration with the engine mounted "front-midships" for an ideal weight distribution of 50/50, a low centre of gravity, and greatly reduced yaw moment. A double wishbone suspension – the ideal design for a sports car – and the "Power Plant Frame" that unites the power unit with the final drive unit are inherited from the predecessor.

1989 Mazda MX-5
At it’s launch in the late ’80s, Mazda’s MX-5 was an unknown quantity. Sure, the international hype was huge but there was still speculation that the little topless Mazda would amount to little more than a more modern tribute to the Lotus Elan. Which, in itself, wouldn’t have been so bad, because the Elan was a seminal sports car. But in truth, the Mazda had a lot more than that going for it. Aside from the odd styling cue, the MX-5 was an entirely superior vehicle to the ’60s Lotus but it was so good that it has since gone on to beat the ubiquitous MGB as the world’s best-selling sports car of its type. And while a Lotus Elan or MGB without major refurbishment may be suspect, an MX-5 of similar vintage is likely to offer hassle-free fun. Read more: 1989 Mazda MX-5
