The Mazda MX-5 is one of the most beloved sports cars of all time. The Mazda MX-5 was originally launched in 1989, at a time when two-seat roadsters had all but slipped away. The Mazda MX-5 combined the best qualities of Italian and British roadsters from the 50s and 60s for the modern era. With its engine positioned in front of the driver but behind the front wheels, and power going to the rear tires, the Mazda MX-5 was, and still is, a driver's car.
Light, simple and fun
Featuring a rigid central spine (Mazda calls this the Powerplant Frame) connecting the engine and rear differential, the Mazda MX-5 delivers predictable and responsive handling. All-important weight distribution is 50:50 front to rear thanks to the engine being situated behind the front wheels—a design characteristic that has endured over the Mazda MX-5's four model generations. Equipped with a series of four-cylinder engines ranging from 1.6 to 2.0 litres throughout its history, the Mazda MX-5 has stayed true to its roots. It's a lightweight, simple yet technologically savvy roadster. It is the best-selling two-seat sports car in history.
Competition
To make an informed purchase, it's always a good idea to check out a car's competition. In the case of the Mazda MX-5, that competition includes the BMW Z3, Audi TT, Honda S2000 and Nissan 350Z. These cars offer similar, though not identical, driving experiences, and can be compared easily with the wealth of information available from Kijiji Autos.
