About the 2014 Mazda MX-5 Miata
3rd generation (NC, 2006-2015), late-cycle year; essentially unchanged after the 2013 update.
Mazda positions the 2014 MX-5 Miata as a lightweight, simple rear-wheel-drive roadster built first and foremost for driving enjoyment. The big appeal is not raw horsepower or cargo space; it is quick steering, balanced handling, an easy-to-use top, and open-air fun in a very compact package. Against other small sports cars, Mazda leans on low weight, mechanical simplicity, and the Miata’s long-running reputation as an everyday-usable sports car.
The 2014 lineup ranges from the simple Sport roadster to the darker, more aggressive-looking Club and the comfort-focused Grand Touring. Club has gunmetal 17-inch wheels, black exterior accents, and red interior stitching, while Grand Touring adds heated leather seats, automatic climate control, and Bose audio.
