1992 Miata Sunburst Yellow

I  believe the best color of the first generation MX-5 Miata is Sunburst Yellow.

In 1991, 800 dazzling Sunburst Yellow J Limited models went on sale in Japan.  The US was similarly tempted by a limited run of 1,500 MX-5 models in the same beautiful color, the paint code HZ.

EV Miata

Believe it or not, this Miata has White Clean Air Vehicle Stickers, available only for pure zero emission vehicles. EV Works, a San Francisco based company developed this EV Miata. EV Works offers the electric conversion kit for NA Miatas.

Miatas at Mazda Raceway 2012

The first Miatas at Mazda Raceway - called "Miatas at MRLS" - was a two-day event that ran on March 21-22nd, 2009 as a 20th birthday party for the Miata. The second event was held in 2010.

The Miatas at Mazda Raceway is back for 2012 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca on March 31-April 1 with Mazda's help.

The goal of this event is to have a fun, safe, exciting weekend with something for everyone. The event is restricted to Miatas only. Two full days of track time with nothing but Miatas in sight.

For more information, check the Miatas at Mazda Raceway website.

Premium RX Plug

The new NGK Premium RX plug is a next-generation spark plug with a maximized total performance.

This plug uses ruthenium containing central electrode. Premium RX plugs generate higher power, consume less fuel and last longer than iridium plugs.

Since this plug is not yet available in U.S., I ordered through Amazon Japan.
