Mazda MX-5 Anniversary Edition

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the iconic Mazda MX-5. To celebrate, Mazda have released a limited edition Anniversary model which is due to be unveiled at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show in March.

Just 2000 of the Anniversary Edition Mazda MX-5s will be built and will be only available in the European market. The special edition two-seater comes with a stainless steel scuff plate and unique serial number from 1 – 1000.

The Anniversary Edition MX-5 is based on the 1.8-litre SE soft-top roadster but boasts an additional styling pack including chrome grille, door handles, headlight fascia, 17-inch alloy wheels and 20th anniversary MX-5 logos.

Three exterior colours will be available: true red, crystal pearl white and aurora blue. The interior receives colour-coded elements to match the exterior paint and the Anniversary Edition's dynamics will also receive a boost thanks to the addition of a front suspension bracing bar which gives the vehicle a more sporty edge.

The new limited edition MX-5 won’t be the only Mazda model making its debut at the Geneva Motor Show. The all-new Mazda5, face-lifted Mazda6 and Mazda’s next-generation Sky concept will all be unveiled at the prestigious motor show in March.
