Mazda Miata
181 hp. 151lb of torque. A curb weight under 2,400 pounds. Behind the wheel of the Miata, numbers transform into beautifully visceral, windswept joy. One of the many secrets to this exhilarating drive lies in its ideal power-to-weight ratio. You feel as though your Miata is connected to you, anticipating, and answering your every command.
Every Miata is engineered with the driver in mind.
Netflix
Netflix is a global streaming entertainment service offering movies and TV series commercial-free, with unlimited viewing on any Internet-connected screen for an affordable, no-commitment monthly fee. Netflix is a focused passion brand, not a do-everything brand.
We are a relief from the complexity and frustration that embody most MVPD relationships with their customers. We strive to be extremely straightforward. There is no better example of this than our no-hassle online cancellation. Members can leave when they want and come back when they want.
We are about the freedom of on-demand and the fun of binge viewing. We are about the flexibility of any screen at any time. We are about a personal experience that finds for each person the most pleasing titles from around the world.
