your video mentioned FD has changed in the 2019, it only applies to the A/T

Got it from their media info. Didn't specify if it was transmission specific.

Quote:
New final drive ratio: The transmission's final drive ratio has been increased from 3.454 to 3.583 in order to improve linear response to match the driver's intentions. Gear ratios are otherwise unchanged from previous models.

^ that was in the initial media release statement, but they've since clarified but i'm too lazy to find you the source...either way you're not alone in providing the inaccurate statement, I see most youtube reviews have stated the change in FD without clarifying

My camera operator's first use of a gimbal wasn't that effective with it lol

Thanks!

Bringing back this thread from the dead...

A 100th Anniversary video popped up on my Youtube feed. So I searched for more videos and this one came up.

The video is kind of cringe.. But only 100 in Canada I'm really surprised a Campbell River dealer ordered one. From their site, it looks like it's still sitting there lol

New owner will be a old white retiree who will drive the car daily to and from the local pub with the top down, wearing a Mazda baseball cap and polo shirt

I love polymetal grey, wish Mazda offered it in the 3 sedan. Shame it's only in the 3 hatch and in the special editions of other segments.

And the rest of us will be waiting for a low mileage, never driven in the rain 100th Anniversary Miata to show up for sale in a few years when the old guy dies.
