    When will we reach ONE MILLION MIATAS ?

    I was thinking about this the other day. With it's 25th Anniversary, and the much anticipated release of the new ND model, I wonder, how close is Mazda to selling it's One Millionth Miata? And, what type of fanfare will that event have?

    This seems like the "Year of Miata"!

    Here are the numbers through the end of 2011:

    421,107 NA
    276,778 NB
    203,556 NC

    At least two of the numbers are static.

    I would imagine we are already there, or if not then right on the edge!

    i thought mazda said in one of their reports recently that we are around 920,000 but not positive. might have been a while but the nc isn't going to sell well for the next year since everybody that is into miatas and not just buying a cheaper roadster, would atleast want to wait for the nd. I personally thing the nd will be the one to reach 1 million but you never know. i hope mazda puts up a thing when they get really close and update around every day with how many miatas got sold worldwide.

    I wonder how many of those NAs are still in existence? Seeing those numbers makes me realize and understand why you still see so many NAs out there though!

    My guess is in the neighborhood of 65-75% of NAs produced are still on the road. A further 10-15% probably have passed on their parts to those still on the road.
