FAQ: Simple MX5 Things you may not know

Wheel Offset: Offset for Wheels on all NA/NB Models is 45mm

Cambelt: The MX5 has a non-interference engine, meaning that if you cambelt were to break you will stop (which is annoying...) but your engine will not likely be damaged.

There are speakers in the headrests.

I thought everyone knew this but I was talking to a couple of people with MX-5s and they had no idea.

(The headrest speakers are controlled by the rear speaker input. There is a left and right speaker in each.)

(Admin: Excellent point... They are in NA models only, I've created a FAQ page for Headrest Speakers here: http://www.mx5forum.co.nz/viewtopic.php?p=42330 )
