Researched and written in Japan with the full co-operation of the
factory, The Book of the Mazda MX-5 Miata is the definitive story of the
second generation of Mazda's MX-5 - the car that re-invented the
affordable lightweight roadster, a species that was thought to be
extinct as the 1990s drew near. Successful immediately, the MX-5 (also
known as the Miata, or Roadster) spawned many imitators, but remains the
world's biggest selling sports car. The series has now been in
production for almost 30 years, with new generations following the
concept of the original, much to the delight of fans all over the world.
