But what happens when you give this formidable little JDM classic to the car designer Kasim Tlibekov and the design studio Tlibekua to develop a speedster concept? The team of artists took the best-selling sportscar of all time and turned it into the MX Speedster, and now, XENEX MOTORSPORTS is making the car in real life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What started life as a render will now become reality. Beginning with the original naturally aspirated era of 1989-1997 Mazda Miatas, the company then sheds 250 lbs of weight before crafting its bespoke Speedster body kit. This brings no roof and a very low-slung window screen rake, as well as humps at the rear for that quintessential look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">17\u201d wheels and tires, competition Wilwood brakes, a track-ready suspension, and a supercharged engine that produces almost 200 BHP in such a small and lightweight machine (in the MX\u2019s \u201cS\u201d trim) all result in the MX Speedster becoming a formidable track day weapon. However, if you\u2019re looking for more, XENEX MOTORSPORTS will also drop an LS-V8 into the car to produce 350+ BHP, becoming the MX Speedster RS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Customers wanting the car will have to wait until January 2023 to put in their orders. Find out more information about the car on XENEX MOTORSPORTS\u2019 website now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/93afcfa8c14afec3607d96717e296f99.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23648\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;width:900px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/93afcfa8c14afec3607d96717e296f99.webp 900w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/93afcfa8c14afec3607d96717e296f99-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"937\" height=\"624\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/aedb43d6023d0b2198caa87c0f4bf187.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23649\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.501602564102564;width:937px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/aedb43d6023d0b2198caa87c0f4bf187.webp 937w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/aedb43d6023d0b2198caa87c0f4bf187-768x511.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"972\" height=\"648\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2beec32fd704af0ab35365a245c98b23.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23650\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;width:972px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2beec32fd704af0ab35365a245c98b23.webp 972w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2beec32fd704af0ab35365a245c98b23-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 972px) 100vw, 972px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"923\" height=\"616\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/b65445bb3ec04ee590f086a3f8e5ae98.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23651\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.4983766233766234;width:923px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/b65445bb3ec04ee590f086a3f8e5ae98.webp 923w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/b65445bb3ec04ee590f086a3f8e5ae98-768x513.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 923px) 100vw, 923px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"964\" height=\"643\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/4adb6f0a8752513bd6a52817c3e2511b.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23652\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.499222395023328;width:964px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/4adb6f0a8752513bd6a52817c3e2511b.webp 964w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/4adb6f0a8752513bd6a52817c3e2511b-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 964px) 100vw, 964px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mazda MX-5\/Miata is one of the most adored cars to come out of Japan for its tunable properties and subsequent performance capabilities, inclination to drift, and for its simplistic stylish good looks.
