The result was the “R Limited,” which was the first truly hot Miata, and came from the factory ready to race. Offered as a $1,500 option for just four years, R Limited cars were about 50 pounds lighter than the base model roadster, had a stiff racing suspension and lightweight BBS wheels, all making the car’s superlative handling even more responsive. To show that it was serious, Mazda didn’t offer creature comforts like power steering, leather seats, or an automatic transmission on the R cars. Despite a serious performance boost, Mazda found few takers for the R cars, selling only 1,841 of its track day specials. a base model equipped with the R Package—"R" meaning "race." Although the Miata is no stranger to the racetrack—Miatas have won the SCCA's Showroom Stock C Division for two consecutive years now—Mazda is taking the car one step further this year with a race handling package. The $1500 package includes stiffer springs and bushings, stiffer shocks (now by Bilstein), alloy wheels, and front and rear spoilers. There are restrictions, too: power steering and anti-lock brakes are not available, nor are extra-cost items from the regular Miata option packages. An exception is air conditioning. Our R Package car weighed only 37 pounds less than the M Edition, which is a smaller difference than we expected. The package has obvious benefits. Compared with the M Edition, the lighter R was quicker out of the gates, reaching 60 mph more than a half-second sooner. (Because the weight advantage was only minor, we think our R car must have had a somewhat stronger engine.) Handling is altered profoundly.
