2006 Mazda MX-5 Preview
"Kinba Ittai" (say gin-buy ee-tie) - get used to hearing this Japanese phrase a lot, as it encapsulates the purpose and existence of the Mazda MX-5 (Miata). Since day one, Mazda has taken this philosophy - of horse and rider as one - to heart, instilling it in every element of the vehicle's design. From powerplant to driver seating position to chassis, Kinba Ittai is what has helped the Miata become what it is today - the world's best selling roadster.
