Exterior
With a sleek frame and a stance that’s low to the ground, the Mazda MX-5 Miata RF prioritizes nimble handling and precise control. To complement its streamlined silhouette, the standard fastback roof is retractable and provides an open-air experience on I-95 with the push of a button. Down below, the standard 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels come with a BBS® with Dark Gunmetal finish for a polished appearance. These work side-by-side with standard high-performance tires that emphasize efficiency, horsepower, and torque while accelerating. For your nighttime travels, the available Adaptive Front-lighting System pivots your LED headlamps in the direction of your steering wheel for a clear perspective of what’s around the corner on winding roads.
Performance
The 2025 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF is synonymous with athleticism, so let’s explore the vigor emanating from beneath the hood. You’ll zip out of the starting gate with pure excitement, as the standard 2.0L SKYACTIV®-G 4-cylinder engine supplies 181 horsepower and 151 lb.-ft. of torque. To reach your preferred velocity in moments, the standard SKYACTIV®-MT 6-speed manual transmission comes with an intuitive and responsive short-throw shifter. On the other hand, if you prefer the gearbox to complete the guesswork for you, feel free to upgrade to the 6-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. With this setup, you’ll be able to enjoy a 26/35 MPG city/hwy1 fuel economy rating to motivate your weekend excursions to Pinecraft Park.
Interior
Since the Mazda MX-5 Miata RF is categorized as a workhorse that’s built for extended travels, it’s important to keep yourself relaxed from point A to point B. Fortunately, this model showcases standard black RECARO® sport seats that contour to your posture. Pair that with heating functions built into the cushions, and you’ll feel muscle tension melt away after a long workout at the gym. Once you settle in and recline, reach out to the standard leather-wrapped steering wheel and sink into the padded armrests. This model doesn’t solely focus on comfort either, as the standard 8.8-inch touchscreen puts your favorite multimedia features within arm’s reach.

Testimonials
Had an excellent experience buying my car at Mazda of Port Charlotte.
Highly recommend!
“ I bought 2 cars with Sam and it was the easiest transaction! I went to look at a different dealership and came straight back. I will not ever make that mistake again. Sam and everyone at Mazda of Pt Charlotte treated me kind and respectful. Answered all my questions thoroughly and have been just as helpful after the purchase. Highly recommend! ”
Highly recommend both of them!
“ I had a great experience purchasing my 2025 CX-5! Tim was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy without any pressure. Steve in finance was just as helpful, walking me through everything clearly and getting me a great deal. They made the experience smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend both of them! ”
This dealership was one of the best ones I have ever bought a car from.
“ UPDATE: I had to update this review because I found several dents in the roof of my “new” truck after having PPF installed. The installer pointed them out to me. I spoke to Eli afterwards and we was not made aware there were any dents on the truck prior to selling it to me. I was fully expecting the dealership to blame me and stick me with the repairs. This would be typical for most dealerships. THAT is not what happened. Eli spoke to the sales manager and they took care of me! I can’t speak highly enough about Eli and this dealership. They are different in a good way and stand by their cars and more importantly their customer. Thank you Eli and Mazda of Port Charlotte. Eli was a great salesman. Not pushy really easy to work with. This dealership was one of the best ones I have ever bought a car from. ”
Great experience.
“ Eli was fantastic to work with. I never felt pressured to purchase nor did he use any hard sell tactics. He answered all of my questions and found answers for the ones he didn’t know off the top of his head. Great experience. ”
