How about a Limited-Run Mazda MX-5 on its 30th anniversary?

MANILA: Are you excited about the North American International Auto Show? Even if you get a lot for your appetite in this grand auto show, don’t be content just yet. Wanna know why? All set to kick off on February 9 2019, the Chicago Auto Show has something intense up its sleeve for all of us. On this very show, in 1989, Mazda unveiled the first generation of the MX-5. Now in 2019, the Japanese automaker is set to pull the curtains for a special 30th Anniversary edition of the roadster.

Barring a severely blurry image and a 30th Anniversary badge, Mazda has not served us with anything else. The 30th Anniversary badge is expected to be placed on or inside each of the 1000 special edition Mx-5s with the car’s unique serial number in the form of 0001/1000. The car teased in the blurry image is also expected to come dipped in a bright red color similar to the first generation MX-5. Other embodiments in the roadster which should be based on the MX-5 RF model may include uniquely designed alloys along with Brembo brakes and rotors.

5 years ago, Mazda came up with a special edition of the MX-5. It was the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the roadster. The anniversary edition then was based on the third generation MX-5 and featured a Soul Red Metallic paint job complemented by black accents on the outside. In those days, Mazda Philippines got 25 of the 1000 limited editions for the MX-5 fanboys in the country. Time will tell if Mazda lovers will get their fair share this time around or not.
