At Budd Baer Mazda, there are few things we love more than seeing our outstanding Mazda models winning the awards they so deserve, so it’s with an especially happy heart that we’re announcing the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata was named the winner of two categories in the 2016 Autobytel Car of the Year Awards, taking the top honors in the segments of ‘Convertible of the Year’ and ‘Sports Car of the Year.’

It’s incredible that the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata took home two awards from the same series, but the Autobytel editors really loved the little roadster, saying of it: “The new Miata stays true to Mazda's successful small roadster formula with its lightweight platform, excellent handling, and modest but fun 155-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine.” When fun driving mechanics and on-the-road performance matter more than price tag and nametag, the Mazda MX-5 Miata fits the bill perfectly.
In the ‘Sports Car’ category, the MX-5 Miata bested some more expensive, technically more powerful competition, with the Autobytel editors noting that “the MX-5 Miata's low-mass design philosophy and its giggle-inducing chassis tuning helps propel it past much more powerful sports car options, proving that it's not just tire smoke and big displacement motors that can stir the blood. Sometimes, as demonstrated here, it's the connection between the driver, the car, and the pavement underneath the wheels that proves to be far more important.” If the feeling between yourself, the car, and the pavement below matters, the MX-5 Miata wants to invite you to stir your blood from the cockpit of your own.
If you’re looking to kick off your summer with fun and style, the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata delivers fun-to-drive performance at an incredible price, and it comes backed by award after award, including World Car of the Year, in addition to the two mentioned above.
