A review of the Mazda MX-5 NC2. This is my 2011, 2.0 litre petrol MX5. In this video I discuss the exterior, interior and driving experience of the MX5. I have the convertible MX5 model with a hard-top called the prht which do prefer in this model.
The exact one is stock and doesn’t have the sports suspension or any optional extras other than what’s with the kendo edition.
Oddly it has the 5 speed box but still had the lsd thankfully. I actually prefer the 5 speed as I can hit 60 without a 2nd gear change.
There will be a whole host of mx5 miata videos coming over the next few months and years as this turns from stock to a nice GT/ trackday car. Trying to find that balance of usability and track worthiness will be key.
I after suggestions for coilovers and brake setups and if there’s anything this particular model suffers with, although so far I’m loving it.
My YouTube channel is called Initial B. I review, fix, improve and race cars at track days. I have lots of plans to improve and modify this Mazda MX5 to get it track ready. The MX5 really is a fun car and I would recommend it to anyone that loves Japanese rear wheel drive cars.
Please see the rest of my channel for fast Japanese cars and Subaru Legacy build content.
