Interested buyers need to log on to a purpose-built micro-site where they will be asked to enter their contact information, the name of their nearest dealer and select whether they want a manual or an automatic transmission. Registration will close at 11:25 am or when 250 potential buyers have signed up, a number that indicates Mazda is anticipating many individuals will sign up and not follow through with the deal.
Based on the third-gen 2015 Miata, the limited-edition model is only offered in a shade of burgundy called Soul Red Metallic. A black power retractable hard top, black A-pillars, black mirrors and black 17-inch ten-spoke alloy wheels complement the eye-catching paint job.
The bespoke treatment continues inside with sport seats upholstered in off-white leather upholstery, off-white trim on the door panels and a hand-finished decorative panel on the passenger side of the dashboard.
The Miata 25th Anniversary Edition is powered by a stock 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 167 horsepower and 140 lb-ft. of torque when linked to a six-speed manual transmission. Power drops to 158 ponies when the optional automatic gearbox is ordered. Regardless of transmission type, the engine sends power exclusively to the rear wheels.
Standard Blistein shock absorbers provide the limited-edition Miata with a more responsive ride.
