Tamiya 24082 - 1/24 Mazada MX-5 Miata  [24082]

The MX-5, also known as Miata in North America and Eunos Roadster in Japan, is a lightweight two-seater roadster, of front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, built by Mazda in Hiroshima, Japan. The model ended up being introduced in 1989 at Chicago Car Show. The MX-5 had been conceived as a tiny roadster – with light weight and minimal mechanical complexity restricted just by legal and safety needs; technologically modern, but a philosophically direct descendant of small British and Italian roadsters of the 1960s including the Triumph Spitfire, MG MGB, Fiat 124 Sport Spider, Alfa Romeo Spider and Lotus Elan.
