PARIS — Mazda's midcycle change on the 2009 MX-5 roadster seems mild enough, judging from the single official photograph — and a few unofficial images leaked on the Web ahead of the car's official debut at the 2008 Paris Auto Show.
Mazda has revised the front and rear ends of the car, with updated bumpers and lamps and a reworked grille.
Word from the Tokyo underground is that the under-the-skin hardware tweaks are relatively minor. Powertrain choices are expected to remain the same, with some mild updates to suspension and gearboxes. European customers can choose from 16- or 17-inch wheels and tires, plus at least two new exterior colors.
