Mazda MX-5 Black Edition vs GT

It’s been around for more than 20 years now, but the MX-5 shows no signs of slowing down. The Sport Black edition is a prime example of the characterful roadster’s enduring appeal, as it features no mechanical revisions at all. In fact, bosses are so confident of the two-seater’s sublime driving dynamics that they decided the newcomer needed nothing more than a lick of paint and specially trimmed cabin. For the ultimate in driver thrills, there’s no beating the GT. With its tuned engine, bespoke chassis and sticky, slick rubber, this MX-5 serves up breathtaking on-track ability. To get the best out of it, you need to be a highly skilled racer, but even a novice will climb out from behind the wheel wearing a huge grin. The really good news is that the Sport Black special serves up nearly as much 

fun – but for a fraction of the cost.
