The Mazda MX-5, also known as the Miata, is the best-selling two-seater sports car in the world. Now in its third generation, Mazda’s roadster has seen its fair share of special editions since it was first launched in 1989. The latest variant to hit the streets is the Black Tuned edition, which was launched today in Japan.
Based on the retractable hardtop model, the new special edition is offered with the 2.0-liter engine matched to either a 6-speed manual gearbox or 6-speed automatic transmission.
Bespoke exterior features include the Brilliant Black-colored retractable hard top and exterior mirrors and the Gun Metallic 17-inch allow wheels. Buyers have a choice of three body colors, two of which (Spirited Green Metallic and Velocity Red Mica) are exclusive to the Black Tuned edition.
Inside, the most noticeable changes include the black leather upholstery with contrasting sand-color stitching on the seats and the steering wheel plus the piano black decorative trim on the dashboard.
A similar special edition of the MX-5 was launched in the UK earlier this year.
