The 2013 Mazda MX-5 Miata has been named to Car and Driver’s 10 Best Cars list for the eighth straight year and for the 14th time since the vehicle made its global debut in 1989.

With a nearly 50:50 weight distribution, the small-in-size MX-5 offers road-hugging handling and superior driving dynamics, making the roadster a favorite among weekend warriors and daily drivers alike.

It remains the most popular two-seat roadster ever. “Sleek, stylish and sporty — the MX-5 remains an uncomplicated sports car with such a visceral driving experience, you won’t want to take your hands off the steering wheel,” said Jim O’Sullivan, president and CEO, Mazda North American Operations.
