After being officially known as only the Mazda MX-5 from 2006 through 2008, Car And Driver reports that the 2009 model will now once again be officially called the MX-5 Miata.
I'm VERY glad they are bringing back the name. It's well known in the US that a Miata is a Miata. More than half the people do not know what an MX-5 is.
