The SEMA show is ready to cater to all our custom car needs, but we have to admit that many creations presented at the event come with a bit too many features for our taste. However, there are certain projects that really show good taste and which we’d really love to include in our garage.
One example is the Mazda MX-5 Spyder, which has now been fully revealed. The vehicle’s design has been significantly modified through the use of a single-piece soft top, which brings a sleeker profile. This comes with two special locks at the back, which give the project a retro look.
The MX-5 Spyder sits closer to the road, thanks to the use of a lowering suspension, riding on 17-inch, 10-spoke ADVAN RS rims, wrapped in Yokohama AO48 225/45 rubber.
The vehicle’s 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit has been converted to run on BP isobutanol, a biofuel also used by the Mazda/Dyson Racing American Le Mans Series team.
Mazda claims that the fuel doens’t affect performance and has tweaked the engine in order to demonstrate this, using a Racing Beat header, intake and exhaust tweaks and other goodies. The vehicle has also been fitted with Brembo stopping power.
The cabin hasn’t been neglected either, with the vehicle receiving a tanned Saddle black leather finish for the seats, mixed with Aqua leather and Coal Ash suede inserts, Silk Gray Metallic trimming, as well as a Mazdaspeed short-throw shifter.
