Like the great Peter Egan once said, “The rag top convertible is a car of occasion.” That’s what the soft top Miata has always been to me, a car to drive under special circumstances. Now I know dozens of people who daily drive their Miata, all year-round, even in winter …

The madmen at Flyin’ Miata are professional Miata surgeons. They’ve been performing surgery on Miatas since the 90s but they’re most recent creation is their best yet. They take a new ND Miata, add a 525bhp 6.2-litre V8, and create the maddest Miata you can buy new today. Enthusiasts can’t leave …

Back in March we saw the unveiling of the Mazda’s Miata RF (Retractable Fastback) at the New York International Auto Show. My colleagues and many of you went nuts for it. All the fun of a Miata with the looks of a fastback and the benefits of a convertible. It …

Now of course that’s not a stock MX-5. I’ve driven the newest model and while it’s quick and a blast, there’s no way it would keep up with a 488 GTB out of the box. When modded however, look out for them at your local track day. And here’s your …

If you’re a Mazda Miata owner looking to add power to your roadster the choices seem very simple, you can either add forced induction, or drop in a larger engine. These tried and true methods may add excitement, but aren’t exactly special. When modding a car as popular as the …

There’s no limit to the fun you can have in a Mazda Miata, even the NC Miata, which is considered to be the least Miata like Miata is an amazing car. Whether you’re carving back roads, or cruising down your favorite stretch of highway, the Miata can make any drive an event. The …
