The 1991 Mazda MX-5 Miata is a part of the first generation of the model. This spirited roadster is powered by a 1.6L inline-4 engine producing 116 horsepower, paired to a 5-speed manual transmission or an optional 4-speed automatic. Rear-wheel drive is standard giving this compact convertible its sporty and rewarding driving dynamics. The Miata delivers a purely analog experience, famously loved for its precise handling. During the 1991 model year, Mazda also released a Special Edition Miata with British Racing Green exterior paint and tan interior, setting a tradition for special editions. Despite its modest power figures, the Miata is recognized for delivering one of the purest and most enjoyable driving experiences.
