1995 Mazda MX-5 Miata Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Other than a few updates in interior and exterior colors and options, the Mazda MX-5 Miata was virtually unchanged from the previous year. Power was provided by a 128-horsepower, 1.8-liter, double-overhead-cam four-cylinder engine that was installed longitudinally. It was linked to a five-speed manual transmission. A four-speed automatic was optional. The MX-5 Miata was available in both a Base model and an upscale M Edition. Standard features for the Base model included a manually operated soft top, power brakes, a driver's-side airbag, remote fuel and trunk releases, and 14-inch wheels. Options included a removable hardtop, air conditioning, power windows, anti-lock brakes, cruise control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, aluminum alloy wheels, and leather seats. The M Edition received such upgrades as air conditioning, power windows, anti-lock brakes, and leather seats, as well as special interior and exterior colors. Most drivers noted that the MX-5 Miata was a fun car to drive (its main selling point) as well as a good value. The car's handling, styling, and drop-top were also among drivers' favorites features. On the downside, trunk space was limited and the interior could be noisy at road speeds, drivers noted.
