Mazda will bring a burst of colour to the MX-5 range next spring with the launch of the new Z-Sport special edition. On sale from 1st March 2018, this exclusive model will stand out thanks to its deep cherry red fabric hood, 17-inch black BBS wheels and standard Machine Grey Metallic paint.
Inside, the stand-out feel continues with Sand Leather seats, Z-Sport floor mats and scuff plates. To further highlight its uniqueness, each car comes with an individually numbered Z-Sport plaque on the dashboard. Exclusive to the UK market and limited to just 300 cars, the 2-litre 160hp MX-5 Z-Sport features a limited slip differential, Bilstein dampers and a strut brace to ensure it has the dynamic excellence to match its sporty exterior looks.
Representing the first chance to buy a current-generation MX-5 convertible with an alternatively coloured canopy, the Z-Sport provides customers with exterior differentiation through its unique roof.
The second MX-5 to wear the Z-Sport badge, the latest car revisits a name last used on the third-generation MX-5 in 2007. A 2-litre model with 17-inch BBS wheels, Stone Leather seats and Radiant Ebony Mica paint, the first MX-5 Z-Sport’s cabin featured brushed aluminium dash inserts, alloy pedals and coordinated stitching on the steering wheel, gearknob and handbrake. With just 400 examples sold, the 2007 Z-Sport shared the exclusivity of next year’s new Z-Sport MX-5.
