CHECK OUT THIS MX-5 MIATA ON CARS & BIDS!
crsnbds.com/ee_miata
Check out Kennan while he explores a bit of the history of the Miata and its place in the automotive landscape.
The ND Mazda MX-5 Miata is an exceptionally fun little car, especially when it touts the 6-speed manual transmission, like this one does. This particular MX-5 Miata comes in the Club trim, and it's equipped with the Brembo/BBS Package, the Appearance Package for Club, a limited-slip differential, Bilstein shocks, and a Bose 9-speaker sound system. It also features an eye-catching yellow exterior wrap, along with a few upgrades intended to enhance its performance like an Edelbrock supercharger and three different ECU tunes - and it was formerly owned by RU-vidr Engineering Explained, which makes for a cool story and undoubtedly adds to the appeal, given his thorough focus on details.

Someone at the local Miata group had his ND painted pink and it looks sick! If I had the money for such a new car in such dull colors, I would definitely get the paint or maybe a wrap done

Cayman, Boxster, Corvette, Golf R, Audi RS3, Civic Type R and Ford Mustang don't exist apparently. I'd put the Camaro in the mix but that one is sadly discontinued. The Miata barely "evolves", the NB had slightly more power and different headlights, the NC got more drivable and added comfort. The ND is the only generation I'd consider a serious improvement, and even that didn't last very long. If they came with 200+ hp stock maybe they'd still be impressive today but they've been pretty much the same since 2018. I can see why people would like this idea of "staying the same" but they should step up their game. We live in a time where minivans can smoke them. Even sporty SUVs exist now that can go around rather tight corners. Their lightweight philosophy won't save them in the long run.

6 year owner of a daily drive in 4 season weather. Exactly the same but Artic White with the Brembo / BBS package. When the snow flies the winter tires let more of the great chassis shine thru. Really surprising how well engineered everything is in the car. Only thing is I added a active axle back exhaust system that has a butterfly valve from Flying Miata that keeps it from waking the neighbors until my foot goes down on the throttle. Fun car !

>$6,000 not including installation and questionable strain on the weak ND1 transmission. I'm sure its fun but would really love to experience the SC on an ND2 since its motor has a proper OEM racecar treatment allowing more potential in the top end with its significantly higher redline.

Great video and absolutely great car. Small, pretty, comfortable, reliable and a helluva amount of fun. What's not to love? I personally love the targa like design wise but, well that's me. However, I'm pretty sure there is a Miata for every need and definitely with the supercharger, this particular one adds a little bit more ooomph! Anyway, as I said Great car and great video as always Kennan. Again much love and support from yours truly in West Spain🙂

Well, a side from the power, it'd be nice to have a little bit more leg room and headroom when the top is closed. That would make the car so much more feasible for tall people. And really this is all you need for a sportscar. I hope the wizards at Mazda are taking notes because I'd love to own one.

I'm sure Doug does not care as he is making tons of money and is very successful now, But this channel is done a total 180. It's now probably one of the most boring car review channels on RU-vid right now. I mean Doug couldn't even review a car that was engineering explains. I say that is a long time for subscriber of many many years, it's just disappointing to see.
