Apparently this MX5 is only 1 of 200 made? *cough*

Looks to me like artistic licence...

However it does appear to have the Mazdaspeed type B spoiler and side skirts

Maybe he was talking about that there was only 200 made for that particular day it rolled off the factory floor.

If this is a genuine 99 sport the dealer is out by 100, there were 300 sports packs in red and 300 in blue. how ever there seems to be some parts missing or changed the radio surrond gear knob and hand brake should be wood grain and it should have leather seats. if it is genuine there were only 7 automatics. from what i have read.
