2015 Mazda MX-5 Miata Review - autoevolution
Unless you’ve been living under a rock lately, you already know that one of the most highly anticipated cars coming out this year is the all-new 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata. Before we’re able to usher in the next generation of open-top, track-slaying goodness, though, Mazda gave us one last chance to say goodbye to the current “NC” Miata by dropping it off in our driveway for a week. Currently celebrating its 25th birthday, the Mazda Miata hasn’t really changed all that much since 1989. It is still a small, open-top two-seat roadster that can be used interchangeably as a tossable track car or a daily driver. Right off the showroom floor, the Mazda Miata can go out onto just about any road course and embarrass cars that cost more and have extra power, and it does so relying on an almost evenly balanced weight distribution and perfectly tuned suspension. “On paper, the 2015 Mazda Miata might be easy to criticize for some with its low-powered engine, small brakes and few, if any, creature comforts, but the key to its success is the low curb weight.
