For the first several years the Mazda MX-5 Miata was on the market it was considered a bit of a farce with its cartoon characteristics and child-like styling. This is a car that wasn\u2019t expected to make it out of the first generation, but here we are, over a quarter of a century later, and this car is still one of the most fun to drive. It must be the fact that the Miata doesn\u2019t take itself seriously has become the key to the success and the amazing feeling we get when we take it for a drive.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The interior of the MX-5 Miata is straightforward and modern to give you the comfort you need and the equipment that can be perfect for the drive. This is a car that brings you the qualities you want in the cabin so that you can admire the fun from a position that makes driving feel great again. On the outside, the 2018 version of the Miata has grown from the cartoon shape it once had to offer a style that shows elegance and sophistication in a way that almost makes you want to take this car seriously, but don\u2019t do that.<\/p>\n

Three Models to Choose From<\/h2>\n

The three models of the standard convertible Mazda MX-5 Miata are Sport, Club, and Grand Touring with the retractable fastback models of the RF divided into two which are Club and Grand Touring. All of these cars are offered with LED headlights, push-button starting, air conditioning, power windows, and an excellent folding cloth top. You can add a variety of impressive features to add more performance or more comfort, or both when you choose this little roadster. This is a car that\u2019s built to be a lot of fun and give you the qualities you\u2019re looking for on the road.<\/p>\n

Another way the MX-5 Miata doesn\u2019t take itself seriously is from under the hood. The Mazda team felt this car should be fun to drive and not powered by such an engine that it will get away from most drivers. For that reason, we see a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood of all models, giving us as much as 155 horsepower and 148 lb.-ft. of torque for the drive. This engine is attached to either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission and allows you to have the fuel mileage you want to enjoy a great ride.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re ready to have fun on the road you need to think about a car that\u2019s built to be fun. The one that has become the poster child for the \u201czoom zoom\u201d moniker of Mazda and the car that has taught us a new way to spell fun over the past three decades is the Mazda MX-5 Miata. You\u2019ll love the driving dynamics of this car, the feeling of the wind when the top is down, and the pure joy the car brings to you.
