The Mazda MX-5 Miata is celebrated for many things, one of which is its unchanging look. The design of the Miata has not changed much in its 22 years. This is a great thing for those who love the car, and a point of contention for those who like to trash it. Still, it is one of the most affordable and fun to drive sports cars on the road today. An official redesign of the Miata is en route to showrooms in the very near future, but there are a few one-off and DIY designs that put a fresh new face on the iconic roadster.
The MX-5 Miata Spyder concept is an aggressive redesign with a look compared to the Porsche Boxster Spyder. This concept has 17-inch Advan alloy wheels and runs off of isobutanol, the eco-fuel used in Mazda’s/Dyson Racing ALMS car. The MX-5 Miata Spyder also features a lithium ion battery to increase the concept’s already impressive green credentials.

Sometimes when you want something done, you’ve got to do it yourself.
