The 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF made its debut at this year’s New York International Auto Show. It was met with rousing excitement. The show car is now set to become the MX-5 RF Launch Edition. This MX-5 will be limited to 1,000 vehicles in the U.S. and destined for Mazda’s most loyal customers.
Revolutionary & Breathtaking
Simple and elegant in concept, MX-5 RF was introduced with a color combination that will be exclusive to MX-5 RF versus the MX-5 soft top: Machine Gray Metallic paint color, Auburn Nappa leather interior trim with a hand-painted black roof panel, based on the Grand Touring trim level.
Initially, Mazda will open up the pre-orders to a select group of customers. These customers will be notified via email. They will have a specific window of time to preorder the MX-5 RF Launch Edition before ordering opens to the public. Customers who opt to purchase an MX-5 RF Launch Edition will have but one option available—SKYACTIV™-MT six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. Each vehicle will be made to order. Outside of the exclusive color combination, MX-5 RF Launch Edition customers will also receive a special gift.
Other Available Models
For those who may miss out on purchasing an MX-5 RF Launch Edition, other retractable fastback models will be available. These will come with many of the same colors and interior combinations—just not the Machine Gray Metallic exterior color on the Grand Touring trim level with the black roof, Auburn Nappa leather interior and badging. While the 2017 MX-5 RF Launch Edition is based on the Grand Touring trim level, other MX-5 RF models are expected to arrive at U.S. dealerships in the first quarter of 2017 in either Grand Touring or Club trim levels.
Specific timing for MX-5 RF Launch Edition ordering, as well as pricing, will be announced in the coming weeks. In the meantime, give Beach Mazda a call. We have a terrific selection of Mazda MX-5 Miatas available for you to test drive. They are driving off the lot quickly, so don’t delay!
