They hit on the idea of a two-night Slumberland 35 event and scheduled it for this weekend. Friday at ChurchKey is the debut of the beer, billed as a collaboration among the label

Can you believe it’s been 35 years since the Mazda Miata hit the market? Now in its fourth generation, more than one million of the beloved sports car have been sold over the three decades it’s been on sale.

The small Japanese roadster is celebrating its birthday with a new limited edition model. Unfortunately, it may be too limited for most.

The 35th Anniversary Edition is similar to the Grand Touring trim, which means features like heated seats, and Mazda says it has added a limited-slip differential, additional bracing, and some newly tuned Bilstein dampers. There's also a beige convertible roof and some shiny 17-inch alloy wheels.

Mazda has unveiled the 2025 MX-5 Miata 35th Anniversary Edition, celebrating 35 years of its popular lightweight car. Debuting at the iconic IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season opener in Daytona, the special edition is a tribute to the MX-5 Miata’s legacy and limited to just 300 units for the U.S. market.

Mazda brought out some of the best examples of the car from its collection and had a whole corral full of fans on hand with their own cars.

In our minds, that's a bargain at $1,320 more than the Grand Touring with a tan interior for a car that might be impossible to find.

Sure, there have been plenty of special edition MX-5s before — but this one might be the nicest yet.

It’s easy for enthusiasts to complain about limited editions of widely available sports cars, which are often expensive and ornate, but we just can’t bring ourselves to resent the 35th Anniversary Edition Miata,
