Mazda has just pulled the covers off the 2025 MX-5 Miata 35th Anniversary Edition. It’s a nostalgic nod to the roadster’s legacy, wrapped in a stunning new package that’s all about class and fun. This special 2025 Mazda MX-5 Miata edition stands out with an Artisan Red Metallic paint job that oozes sophistication, complemented by a beige soft top that gives it an effortlessly chic vibe.

The exterior also features a body-colored rear spoiler and a serialized badge on the rear fender, reminding you that this isn’t just any Miata. To round it off, the 17-inch wheels have a bright finish, adding a bit of sparkle to the whole look.

Drop the top, and you’re greeted by a tan Nappa leather interior that feels warm and luxurious. The 35th Anniversary logo on the headrests is a subtle but classy touch. Artisan Red trim accents tie the cabin back to the exterior, while the leather-wrapped steering wheel with tan stitching adds a sporty yet refined feel.

The tan Nappa leather treatment extends to the carpeting and key fob sleeve, demonstrating the attention to detail.

Mazda didn’t skimp on tech or comfort, either. Heated seats, a Bose audio system, and an 8.8-inch infotainment display with built-in GPS navigation are all standard.

You also get seamless smartphone connectivity via Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Other practical touches include automatic climate control and an auto-dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink.

Under the hood of the 2025 Mazda MX-5 Miata special, you’ll find the same delightful 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, punching out 181 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque. Purists will appreciate its exclusive pairing with a six-speed manual transmission.

Power gets sent to the rear wheels through a limited-slip differential, while sport-tuned Bilstein dampers and a shock tower brace sharpen up the handling for those twisty backroads.

Mazda is keeping this one special, limiting production to just 300 units. Pricing starts at $36,250, with a $1,185 destination fee on top of that. It’s $1,620 more than the manual MX-5 Grand Touring, but the extra style and exclusivity more than justify the premium.
