The 1999-2005 Mazda MX-5 Miata (NB), affectionately known as the "NB" generation, is the second generation of the iconic roadster, building upon the success of its predecessor and further solidifying Mazda's reputation for building exceptional driving machines. This generation brought substantial improvements over the original NA, featuring a longer wheelbase for greater stability, a wider track for enhanced handling, and a more refined and powerful engine. The powertrain options included a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine with either 133 or 140 horsepower, offering a thrilling driving experience. The NB also boasted a more spacious and comfortable interior with greater headroom and legroom, while still retaining the lightweight and agile characteristics that define the Miata.

The 2004 Mazda MX-5, belonging to the mid-cycle refresh of the NB, introduced subtle yet notable changes. The exterior received a new front bumper, grille, headlights, and taillights, adding a more modern and aggressive aesthetic. The interior also saw refinements with updated gauges and a revised center console. However, the core driving experience remained unchanged, offering the same exhilarating open-top driving pleasure that the Miata has become synonymous with. Despite its age, the NB MX-5 continues to be a popular choice among enthusiasts for its affordable price, excellent handling, and timeless design. The 2004 model year, in particular, benefits from the mid-cycle refresh updates, offering a more modern and refined experience without sacrificing the fundamental principles that made the Miata a legend.
