"After a tremendously positive response to our global reveal of the 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF, we knew we had to do something unique for the MX-5 RF Launch Edition," said Robert Davis, senior VP, U.S. Operations, MNAO. "Exclusive access to the presale is a way we can offer something special to our most loyal customers who can't wait to get behind the wheel of one of the most anticipated vehicles in Mazda history."
The MX-5 RF Launch Edition is based on the Grand Touring trim level of the 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF and features a Machine Gray Metallic paint color and Auburn Nappa leather interior trim with a hand-painted black roof panel.
