“Designed to deliver outstanding lumbar and lateral support, the heated Recaro seats are perfectly aligned with the Jinba Ittai concept of car and driver as one that defines the Mazda MX-5.”
The special edition is based on the top Sport Nav model in the UK, featuring a 2.0-litre four-cylinder producing 115kW. It comes with LED headlights, digital radio, and a premium Bose sound system.
On top the standard specification, the Sport Recaro also gets sports suspension with Bilstein dampers, a front strut brace, and a limited-slip differential for improved cornering precision.
Mazda UK says the model is the first limited edition version of the new MX-5 to be launched in the region. Each will come with a special build number plaque to mark its exclusivity.
