Times are tough, finances are tight, and now Mazda is looking to offer a little bit of relief to those who have gone above and beyond to help and support their communities. Fifty lucky folks who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to their communitieswill each receive a 2020 .

We appreciate the 100th Anniversary special edition Miata, and now the automaker is returning some of that appreciation by giving away 50 of them. Not just to anybody, but to those nominated by their communities who may deserve a little something back.

For our 100th anniversary, Mazda is honoring the human spirit by giving back to those who’ve given their all to their community. As we move towards the end of this very difficult year, Mazda is honoring 50 individuals by sharing their stories and giving them a special piece of our history, a Mazda MX-5 Miata 100th Anniversary Special Edition.

The Mazda MX-5 Miata 100th Anniversary Special Edition comes in Snowflake White Pearl Mica and is paired with Red Nappa leather seats and matching red accents inspired by the original R360 Coupe. The interior features special 100th Anniversary badges and logos throughout, giving it a look that’s destined to leave a legacy of its own.

For whatever reason, the instruction website requires that you upload your minute-long nominating video to either a public or unlisted but accessible YouTube channel. It also can’t feature music, or it’ll be disqualified. Just be sure you have a shareable YouTube link they can use.

If a winner elects to trade in the $35,750 ARV of the Prize Vehicle and use it towards the purchase of a 2021 Mazda CX-5 of equal or lesser value or donate to a charitable organization, such winner will still receive $12,997 cash (awarded in the form of a check).
