Miata remains a classic-looking roadster with traditional rear-wheel drive. Miata was redesigned and re-engineered for 1999. The resulting car features a more aggressive appearance. Compared with pre-1999 models, exposed projector-type headlamps replace the old pop-up units, there's more sculpturing along the sides, and there's a little raised bump at the rear of the trunk lid reminiscent of the third-generation Mazda RX-7. This newest generation model is lighter, more powerful, more refined and boasts a stiffer chassis than pre-1999 models. For 2000, the model line was simplified and Evolution Orange Mica was added to the color palette.
