The 2022 Mazda MX-5 Miata Club Is Still A Perfect Weekend Topless Sports Car

The current generation #MazdaMX5 Miata has been around for 7 years but Mazda has managed to keep the #MazdaMiata fresh over the years. For 2022, the #MX5Miata gets some tweaks in the form of updated suspension tuning and changes to the availability of the automatic transmission, which #Mazda has limited as an option to only the GT trim. It still uses a high-revving 2.0L N/A 4-cylinder engine that revs to 7,500 RPM paired up with a lively 6-speed MT. While an electrified #Miata is on the table for the next generation, this is one of the purest new sports car that money can buy today.

Where has the time gone?! Our host Sofyan actually bought one of the original ND Miata's exactly 7 years ago and it's still one of the few cars that he owned which he misses everyday. Luckily, Mazda has managed to keep this car fresh and still desirable after all these years. We're looking forward to the next-generation model but hopefully Mazda preserves some of that raw feeling you get from this generation when/if they decide to go electrified for the next model.

[@katanamast279]

I absolutely love the MX5. This spec with the brembo package and in their soul red color is sex on wheels. The only thing about the MX5 I don't like is that it has gotten very expensive. The club trim with the BBS/Brembo package is 37k unfortunately. Also the used market nowadays does not favor this car either. I think in 2022 this is a problem considering the GR86 is significantly less money. Even though not a convertible I think the GR86 handles better and probably give you more bang for your buck handling wise. The used alternative would be a first generation Z4 which can be had between 10k-20k for a 3.0i or 3.0si model. Thanks for the review and keep up the great work!

[@erikruggels9177]

Lovely review, I love my nd too!! But looking at what a horrible prospect the mx30 is I don’t get why mazda doesn’t pull an i3->mini electric and just put that drivetrain in the mx5 reversed.

[@joskjj3625]

In a world where crossovers are killing of many beloved vehicles,seeing vehicles like the Miata is super refreshing

[@Hoosierbeau]

I owned a 2016 Mx 5 and traded it in 3 years ago. I really missed it. Yesterday, I got an email from a local Mazda dealer about the Mazda 3, but decided to check the inventory for the MX 5 at all the local Mazda dealers which I have done for the last couple of years hoping I would see one that was too good to pass up. Today, the dealer I went to had two brand new white 2022 Mx 5 GTs with good discounts and only about 5 miles on them. I took one for a test drive and loved it. They gave me such a great deal on my trade...over 7 grand more than I expected and threw in some great options at no additional charge. I literally jumped out of my seat to sign the offer sheet. I'm glad to say I'm now the owner of a new 2022 MX 5!!

[@nettejean5912]

My husband and I just bought a white GT last Saturday. We also got a great deal since the 2023s are out! We both love it! I have a GTI which is fantastic but when I drive the Miata it puts a huge smile on my face and it is so much fun to drive! It’s the best! My favorite!

[@chrisx5127]

Which Mazda dealer is that?

[@Hoosierbeau]

Bob Moore Mazda in Oklahoma City. As an update to this story...I owned that 2022 Mx-5 for less than 3 months before being involved in an accident that totalled the car. The MX-5 had less than 800 miles on it. I was uninjured except for a very sore arm, shoulder and bruised temple. After settling with the insurance company, I was able to locate and buy a similar new 2022 Mx-5 about 100 miles away for around $2500 less than I paid for the original. I'm just as pleased with it as I was with the other...especially since I've consistently averaged over 42 mpg in the city and almost 48 mpg on the 100 mile trip back from when I bought it.

Congratz man!

Great review, although don’t dismiss the automatic too quickly. I just bought a ’23, and while I understand all about how the manual suites this car, while test-driving the auto, I was completely & utterly blown away by how good it was. When in “Drive” you can pop the shift lever a titch over to the left, taking it out of full auto mode into a manual control, and then simply blip the lever forward & backward (with a tiny throw) to shift up & down. The paddle shifters are also there as another shifting option too! It was so shockingly good that I bought it over the manual. Much more relaxing during those times when you want to just cruise and enjoy your coffee, or when dealing with city traffic. Have you tried one?

[@ag4allgood]

Sofyan your MX-5 reviews really hit the spot ! As a daily driver of a 2016 MX-5 Club soft top with the BBS / Brembo package my love for this car has grown. If anybody thinks the 181 hp ND2 engine is a great upgrade .... no its the lower end of the flat torque curve where this engine does shine for a 4 cylinder engine. I put winter tires on when the snow / ice starts to fly & its still a blast to drive in the cold weather. I look forward to each drive with this car as the fun factor is very high. I'm calling it the Best Car I've ever owned in 50 years of driving manual transmission cars & never would I have thought to consider a convertible Miata but Engineering Explained did a 2016 MX-5 video review which completely changed my thought. Also Savage Geese review of the 2016 MX-5 was confirmation on this car. TY Sofyan !

[@donrichter3523]

You are FOS! The ND2 engine upgrade makes the car. Your ND1 has a crap econobox version of the engine from the base Mazda 3. Yuck!!

[@horatiotimewaster5755]

I see what you're saying. I have an ND2 but rarely rev it to 7k+. It's a good engine, but I actually prefer the turbo engine in the Fiat 124.

[@ag4allgood]

@@horatiotimewaster5755 I test drove a 2017 Fiat 124 Spyder Abarth with Brembo brakes & found the clutch pedal to be very heavy in traffic. That shifter felt very finicky in the Abarth missing shifts from a stop thinking I was in 1st but instead in 3rd. Turbo lag was not fun. The next day is when I went to the Mazda dealer to test drive a 2016 MX-5 Club soft top. Basically the same car in the same color. The clutch pedal was super light & throttle response was instant. In turns it also felt more athletic. It was a magical feeling driving in that MX-5. The dealer even extended my test drive ( it was 15 minutes past closing on a Saturday ) thru the weekend asking me to come back Monday after work to make a decision. I drove that car 240 miles in a little more than a day. My trade in car stayed in their dealer lot. Monday I was there after work with my checkbook ! 6.5 years later I still think it was one of my best decisions. So my experience in back to back test drives !

[@mrnrfan182]

The BBR package is a hell of a deal. Sourcing those parts individually would cost you quite a bit more. You clearly prefer the bells and whistles of the GT, but if you’re a weekend warrior that sees casual track time, that BBR package is the way to go. The seats alone are better than anything on offer from Mazda’s cloth or leather options. I would love auto rev matching though. The throttle response on the blips is immediate which makes rev matching a joy but it is a nice feature when it can be toggled on and off.

[@horatiotimewaster5755]

Agreed! I chuckled when Sofyan was wishing for power and cooled seats. He also complained about the trunk, which I think is very roomy for such a little car. The interior feels way tighter than The NA,though.

[@pushslice]

Title may be a bit too wordy. It’s just the perfect car. Arguably the best overall car made today for driving enthusiasts.

[@paulh6517]

I bought a Miata back in 2007 or 2008 (my first convertible). I loved that car and the very first thing I noticed were the smells with the top down. Even more so than my motorcycle (face shield), the smells were great riding by wildflowers, fresh cut lawn or hell even a cow pasture. There is nothing like a convertible as a second car, almost the feel of a motorcycle but with a wee bit more safety and creature comforts. I miss that car, but I have just a bit more room in the '14 370z convertible but the Z does not convey the ethereal experience of the Miata . I have never had any problems from either car so both are/were reliable. The Z does not have the connected driver to car experience that the Miata did, however ingress and egress is a bit easier as I have aged. The motorcycles are gone because of Tahoes which the owners refuse use bluetooth or maybe I have just aged out.

[@falcodog2917]

I've been resisting making comments on the ND. I bought an ND3 GT and I have been driving it for three months and it has literally transformed the way I drive. It is a weapon in the canyons, fast, smooth and predictable at the limit, it is truly outstanding. I occasionally commute with it and it's hard not to get judgemental with people commuting by themselves in ridiculous lifted trucks and giant SUVs. I'm sorry but they come across as greedy, needy for attention and somewhat belligerent. Do we really need 5k to 6k lb vehicles to drive back and forth to work? I guess it's a reflection of where we are as a society. My MX-5 will pull over 40mpg on the highway and averages 34mpg all while offering an amazingly fun time, even when slogging to work.

Your reviews are really detailed and they are much appreciated but sometimes, I just completely disagree with some of your opinions. Here, for example... power seats in a Miata ? Really? That goes against the mantra of the car.. it adds unnecessary weight. If I remember correctly, I think you also wanted moonroofs in cars like the 86 and Civic Type R or something along those lines (not going to fact check this). Like you missed the point that those features are intentionally left out by the engineers for a reason.

[@courtneypuzzo2502]

have always liked the styling of the Miata and its coming up on its 35th anniversary its sold well though sales have dwindled in the recent years

[@RobHTech]

haha. Love the Redline Reviews. Nice too that the engine is behind the strut towers.it's stupid that you can't use carplay touch screen while driving. Also, I agree that for $4,800 for upgraded calipers and seats is not worth it, esp. bc the rotors are the same size. IDK it's slow. But, many people buy for the track and upgrade stuff. It must be really fun to drive though. How did they get rid of the throttle-by-wire rev hang? Wow, the Revs drop fast like a regular engine--throttle by wire.

[@MYGTO7]

Mazda charges an outrageous amount of money for those BBS wheels. They should combine the Brembo brakes with their standard wheel and save the buyer thousands of dollars.

[@klauss_aquatics6537]

They probably won't add power seats due to adding unnecessary weight and price

[@dlg5485]

I still love the Miata and I'm still planning to buy a ND2 before it goes away. It's such a timeless design and the ND2 will be highly sought after in the future, when the NE gets electrified. I do wish more channels would review the GT trim because that's the one that most buyers choose. Personally, I think the Club with this $4550 option package is too expensive and, even if I got a Club, I'd skip this package. Like you, my Miata of choice would be a GT manual soft top at around $34k (just over $32 with S-Plan). The GT still gets the Bilstein dampers and LSD, so you're not giving anything up from a performance standpoint. The Brembo brakes just aren't necessary, in my opinion.

[@sandweiler4640]

That is exactly the spec I got in SRC of course. In Europe the sport package is an extra 1500€ as compared to the GT line. But before (eventually) modifying the suspension I wanted to try the “normal” trim. Even the sport package is too soft for me most probably and I did not wanted the BBS wheels but original Mazda rims. Recaro seats were also not a must have for me. So I went for the exact trim you are describing. Furthermore, one car was available at the dealership with these exact specs. So I called my wife, got the green light 😂 and got the car 😊. It was that or waiting at least 8 to 10 months. Got it in June and had a blast with it this summer. My reasons for getting the car were the exact same ones as yours: it is an analog car, a non-electrified car, a light car, it comes with a minimum of electronics or assistance BS. The NE might be great but the EU rules are a major concern, especially safety requirements (assistance that is useless). So the ND appeared to me as the Last of the Mohicans and I jumped on it while it still exists.

No doubt, the body lines of the RF are stunning. But being an older traditionalist, I would opt for the drop-down cloth top that hearkens back more directly to the British roadsters of early '60s, which inspired the creation of the Miata from the beginning. I would choose that in the classier GT trim with the brighter wheels and interior chrome bezels around the switch gear and air vents. This video covered a 2022 model, but for 2023, Mazda added a new color: Zircon Sand Metallic, which makes this car appear more exotic and more expensive than it is.

I have a 2022 MX5 Club and you can't unlock doors with your phone. If you find out you can please let me know. BTW, the club with the BBS/Brembo/Recaro package is awesome. I love mine. too bad for others wanting it that it is sold out for 2022

God please don’t “hybrid “ can we please for the love of God keep something for the purist.

I bet it’s got specifically bilstein b6 ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Very Nice Bro. Get Good People!

[@patrickk611]

I want this car so bad ❤️

[@kingwilliams4749]

200 HP would do wonders for this car.

[@ZACH_95_]

Then they would bump the price up even more, and at that point i wouldn't think it would be worth it.

@king Williams - how much time do you have behind the wheel of the ND2?

[@dreiz.]

Love the ND Miata but I’m 6’3, so top up is a no no for me.

[@brianlee9233]

Me neither. I'm 6'2 and getting inside the car without putting down the seat (just like the Toyota 86, the late Scion FR-S and the Subaru BRZ) is physically impossible.

[@Hogtown1986]

@@brianlee9233 I’m 6’2” and had no problem with the 1992 original generation. I drove it for work and was in it all day. I was 30 pounds lighter then though.

Miata Is Always The Answer.

[@awatukee7]

Nice roadster, if it comes with ventilated seats(convertible vehicles needs it)I would buy one.

[@RLTtizME]

GASSY?

[@jocamp5]

If this car goes hybrid, it will loss two of the elements that make most sports cars exciting: manual transmission and its exhaust note.

[@paulcote1654]

Why did you sell your nd1?

[@john_dee1431]

'2016, miss that car to this day.' Did you buy another?
