New for 2006 Coupes and Convertibles

Until now, the Mazda Miata had not undergone a total redesign since its introduction in 1989. Now designated the MX-5, the new Miata is larger in size inside and out. Fresh styling incorporates a little of the RX-8, especially in the front fenders, but still retains its undeniable Miata silhouette that the motoring public has come to know and love since its introduction. Powering the 2006 Mazda MX-5 Miata is a 2.0-liter engine producing 170 horsepower and 140 lb.-ft. of torque. Three transmissions are available to suit your driving style. First up is a standard five-speed short-throw manual, with a six-speed gearbox available at extra cost. For those that want a sports car but don’t like the idea of shifting, a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters is available.
