Tune this car

Resist the urge to add power: stickier tyres, a stiffer rear bar and a small drop in ride height transform the Miata's already chatty chassis. If you must add boost, add brakes and tyres first.

Confirmed class data

Engine, drivetrain and power reflect the real world car. In-game class and PI are stock values and may shift with game updates and tuning.

Overview

If a single car defines 'slow car fast' it is the original NA Miata: 1.8 litre, rear-drive, around 130 horsepower and roughly a tonne to push around. In Forza Horizon 6 it sits in D class as a benchmark for chassis feel, the kind of car you reach for when you want to learn how a corner actually works instead of how to wrestle horsepower. There is a reason it is the most popular budget track car in the world.

Why it stands out

Lightweight, balanced and endlessly fun.

D class covers PI 100 to 400. Classics, kei cars and everyday runabouts.

FAQ

Is the original Mazda MX-5 Miata good for beginners?
It is one of the very best. Low power and a balanced rear-drive layout mean it will not punish small mistakes, and you can lean on the chassis at sane speeds to learn weight transfer and throttle steering. Many sim-racing coaches start students here.
