Mazda MX-5 Kuro edition

Mazda has announced the latest in a long line of limited edition MX-5 two-seaters. Named the Kuro (meaning ‘black’ in Japanese), it will be available in either 1.8i Soft Top or 2.0i Roadster Coupé guises.

Appropriately, the exterior features a Brilliant Black finish for the door mirrors and roof, black detailing around the front grille and fog lights and dark gunmetal 17” alloy wheels. Buyers will be able to choose from Brilliant Black, Velocity Red Mica or Crystal White Pearlescent paintwork.
