Wow thanks for this ... I just bought my NB last summer and after the test drive it my first words were "now I understand" .. Thank you Mazda for this amazing car and bringing such an affordable, reliable, safe, and easy to drive convertible for 4 generations
I have a 2020 Miata RF GT and it is the greatest car I have ever driven, I truly love it and I am very thankful to Mazda for their sophisticated engineering.
My dream car (RF) . The RF roof mechanism is origami in motion . I imagine most of these cars are destined for the north American market . And Tokyo Red is the colour to have .
Am I the only one who is amazed they arrive from their lengthy ship journey.....with no scratches or dings???? I mean we humanly package sardines better than we package and send expensive motor cars!
I love my brand new mx 5 ND3 / 2024 1.5 132 HP, what a car. In Europe, only the 1,5 litre is on sale, but it´s a great car too. Thank you for your video, The Wheel Network.
So, they build a 4 door regular car. Then the fairy godmother from CInderella waves her wand and, poof! it becomes the legendary MX-5 just before it gets painted! I knew there had to be magic involved.
9:21 Even back then they wore masks in customers' cars when driving onto the boat to avoid passing on different strains of whatever pathogens overseas.
Really annoying, the first half of the video shows the construction of the 4-door SUV CX-5, not the MX-5. The sound you hear throughout the video is just random factory sounds, and has no relation to what you're actually seeing on screen - why do that?
0-60 in 5.7 seconds is ridiculously slow? It's not what the MX-5 is about anyway, and I do hear many saying this over and over, or that it's underpowered. The MX-5 is, however ridiculously light weight and is one of the most fun cars to drive. I would say that most other cars are ridiculously heavy.
I hope that Mazda gets their act together and starts building EVs including the MX5. They are probably the least prepared of all the legacy auto makers.
I hope they can continue finding clever engineering solutions to avoid exactly what you are asking here, hence they can maintain the weight as low as they do, which is one key aspect that makes the Miata so special to drive.
The MX-5 will not stay an MX-5 (a small and above all lightweight roadster) with the current battery tech, cause this would add at least 300kg weight and raise the driving position due to the battery pack in the floor. they would either start making a bigger more luxury electro-droptop, calling it MX-7 or something, or drop the car alltogether (till an alternative to lithium batterys, like solid state ones, is available with at least 2 times the energy density we have today).
God bless Mazda for continuing to produce a lightweight affordable naturally aspirated manual sportscar with a real handbrake
Preach brother!
I’ll take mine in automatic I’m a simple man and it doesn’t get any simpler than just pushing a gas pedal to get there
Agreed… is a “real” handbrake that unsightly?
@@robertcrosby9238 people like you are destroying motoring. Simpleton
@@robertcrosby9238 i do recommend the manual if you can drive it its one of the best manuals out there
Legendary iconic masterpiece of a car. The most fun car to drive.

Our MX5 is 23 years old and drives like new. QUALITY.

So cool to see an MX-5, micro-van, and CX-3 rolling off the same line together @ 7:25
The shipping part near the videos end is amazing.
Like an army full of miatas
What a beautiful car...
Ready to spread joy the world over - fantastic cars.
You can not like it, I cannot argue with this. But if you don’t respect the MX-5 you don’t like cars.
I think the Red may be a popular color.... Mazda needs to bring back the cool colors again!
love my MX-5 2.0 ND
wow, look at those new cars on parking lot ready to ship
Mazda của Nhật Bản sản xuất thì còn gì bằng. Nổi tiếng từ xưa đến nay vẫn còn 🇯🇵👍.
My dream car (RF) . The RF roof mechanism is origami in motion . I imagine most of these cars are destined for the north American market . And Tokyo Red is the colour to have .
Soul Red Crystal is the way to go.
Wow seeing that many spanking new Miata’s all driving off together at the end. The world is a better place the more there are on the road!

cars get damaged all the time in shipping and dealerships fix them up
they are often wrapped with protective wrap, and if they do get damaged, they are often repaired by dealer body shops before being sold

Thanks for sharing, enjoy your MX-5!
Dang that shipping clip is like the year's worth of inventory production!
Awesome vid. Now I know the journey mine made before I bought her.
I have an ND RF, bought it instead of anoverpriced Z4. best decision ever
im two months into my first mx5..
brilliant little car...
not a slouch with the
2 litre either..
Amazing! Please, Mazda. You have so many. Could I have just one?
0:57 I didn't know it came in a four door...
I saw that too. It doesn't come in 4 door, that must be a part for another kind of vehicle
I visited the factory in 2019, it’s a mixed production line so you would see a MX5 come down, followed by a CX3 etc…
Haha ! , New pair of glasses ?
those aren't mx5 those are mazda hatchbacks
Mostly not MX5 production. That starts in the paint shop. It all looks like the same footage from about five years ago.
THATS A LOT OF MX5 holy
So, they build a 4 door regular car. Then the fairy godmother from CInderella waves her wand and, poof! it becomes the legendary MX-5 just before it gets painted! I knew there had to be magic involved.
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Love my Fiata
ずっと見てられる
5:03 a backseat bench isn't impossible LOL. no way from factory but maybe very intensive mod from a fabricator
Yeah but can I get one in red???
Now do the same program with chevy😂
9:21 Even back then they wore masks in customers' cars when driving onto the boat to avoid passing on different strains of whatever pathogens overseas.
4:44 I wonder how fast they add the clear?
Seems a bit....hit or miss...how on earth do they keep up quality control...check 1 in every 5000 cars for correct paint application?
Hope to get one some day
❤️🇯🇵
Impressive how stamped steel panels of a 4dr hatchback end up looking like a roadster. Must be magic. 🙄
I did enjoy this though
So when did an MX5 ever have four doors?
Fiat 124 Spider built there too.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔥🔥
Sharp~
The Japanese culture, like the German/Swiss culture….is a superior culture
At this point, the only culture we have is bacteria
German culture is not superior. Their cars are garbage and are regularly voted the most likely to break down
👍👍👍
How does a CX-3 turn into a Miata?
Shipping is Actually what the workers wish they get paid for 😅
-assumtion
@8:38 that's like 500HP combined
I didn't know they made 4 door MX-5 Miatas ! ! ! !
🙇
I had one. It was just okay and any mom in a minivan could beat that car at a light. No one ever talks about how ridiculously slow this car is.
0-60 in 5.7 seconds is ridiculously slow? It's not what the MX-5 is about anyway, and I do hear many saying this over and over, or that it's underpowered.

You should make mx5 ev
With a 6 speed gearbox? Good luck
You will be most probably better suited with an automatic Mercedes
Absolutely not. We don't want ev
I hope that Mazda gets their act together and starts building EVs including the MX5. They are probably the least prepared of all the legacy auto makers.
I hope they never make an EV MX5.
Synthetic fuel is the future, not shitty EVs.
