Yes, some might not be too 'fond' of the front styling (like myself) but, when driven, this mid-cycle refresh feels like a -slightly- different car. It's got a better set engine, improved suspension and a higher redline. Mazda even took steps to improve the engine sound! Overall, a better car and this 2006 NC owner wholeheartedly recommends it.
beautiful car at an affordable price. not too flashy. doesnt scream for attention. fun and friendly. easy driving on weekends for shopping and dining. fuel efficient.
WOW thank god someone got the reason behind the new happy face right, happy car = happy owner. Mazda is well aware they build a fun car with the miata.
This new Miatas are looking better than ever they look so happy what a smart design from Mazda reflecting the smile of their owner once behind the wheel. A happy car= Happy Owner
Mazda did good with the facelift and the car looks sportier though I wish they put a rotary engine in the MX-5. I'm sure it will power it up a bit. Still a great job. It's great fun money can buy these days.
But I'm a bit disappointed at the speed3 and 6 facelift. The previous one looks better actually.
I have '97 NA, I really like new NC but the '09 facelift improve its look a little more aggressive. If I sell my EVO (Not that I want to), I will get one.
well....it's not the NEW mx 5. It's the old one with a SMALL facelift. Looks nice...but I wouldn't buy it for me. Maybe for my parents when they retire
The face looks better, but the lack of colors is pathetic. You have to have a dark interior with the power hard-top unless you want dark blue for your exterior.
Seen it in person. Looks miles better than the 2008 model. It is a minor facelift that gives a touch of an aggressive styling I find. It seriously looks better. I`m putting my order down on it sometime within 2009
Not sure if the smiley works for me. And the fogs look like dimples. Took me a while to spot the tweeks. Essentially, not so very different but it is only facelift... of sorts :D
And as long as it does what it's meant to and give people a big grin whilst out driving, then ...sorted!
The NC Miatas are great little cars. I own a 2006 and i can guarantee that you will have a fun time. I really like the new look. Instead of :0 it looks like :D. how can you now love it! it looks so happy! lol!
best roadster ever !! i forgot the s2k :p

@HughJass99 It's a "movie cut" mistake. I have one, the right button brings the top off.
So don't you people think that this car has something wrong. It's the most perfect sports car of today :)

@romeosafadi I have a 2008 PRHT and love it. I am not a fan of the new front end of the '09's and '10's
