1,600 Mazda MX Roadsters (MX-5) celebrate 20th anniversary at Miyoshi

Mazda is still celebrating its 20th Anniversary of the Mazda Roadster (known to us as the beloved Mazda MX-5). The Japanese automaker hosted a special commemorative event on Sept. 20 at Miyoshi Proving Ground with over 1,600 MX-5s and their owners as they made their way to the car’s birthplace.

“Approximately 2,600 owners and fans had journeyed from all over Japan and overseas to join in the celebration,” Mazda said. “The event was officially launched with a toast from a 20-year old Roadster owner, who had been born the same year as the iconic vehicle was launched.”

The event ended with all 1,600 MX-5s formed up to parade around the track before leaving the Miyoshi Proving Ground.
