2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF Grand Touring

The 2017 MX-5 Miata RF is the retractable-hardtop version of Mazda's iconic two-seat roadster. It's a joy to drive, with razor-sharp steering and a chassis that makes every corner feel like an event. The cabin is snug but well laid out, and the RF's power-folding roof gives you coupe-like quiet with the top up. Cargo space is tight, so plan for weekend bags rather than a full set of luggage. Heated leather seats and automatic climate control set the Grand Touring apart from the Club trim below it. Its 2.0L I4 makes 155 horsepower and pairs with a six-speed automatic, sending power to the rear wheels for a lively, engaging drive. The Grand Touring adds a shock-tower brace for sharper handling, though the ride is firmer than the Club's standard setup.
