What makes the Mazda MX-5 Miata so special? Maybe it’s the nearly perfect 50:50 weight distribution or the fact that for almost 30 years, this roadster has maintained a weight of under 2,500 pounds. Its engine delivers just the right amount of power, making driving exhilarating without being overwhelming. Plus, the convertible top lets drivers soak in the sights and sounds of the open road. The Miata embodies the essence of a pure sports car. It’s no surprise it’s often the go-to choice.
At first glance, this particular Miata looks far from a typical Miata. Virtually every element of this car has been modified: the engine has been enlarged and, with the installation of a turbo, now produces more than double its original power. The roadster has been transformed into a fastback, sporting a British racing green finish accented by yellow racing stripes.
I’ll let the car speak for itself for a moment.
