The Mission of the Sahuaro Miata Club is to increase the fun of driving and owning a Mazda MX-5 Miata. This is achieved by combining fun runs and outings that allow us to take advantage of our roadster’s phenomenal performance. Through meetings, meals and activities, we meet like-minded club members. We share our Miata experiences and develop friendships along the way that makes us all proud to be Miata owners and members of the Sahuaro Miata Club.

History & Facts

In June of 1991, a group of 30 Miata owners got together in Phoenix, to talk about forming a common interest owners club. Within a year, the new club was organized, incorporated and approved as a non-profit entity. We were one of the first chapters of the “Miata Club of America”.

Since then, Sahuaro Miata Club membership has grown to over 150 members dedicated to driving and socializing. Our membership is inclusive and welcoming to all Miata owners only limited by how far a person is willing to travel.

Typically, we have four to eight restaurant outings a month and up to four “Events” each month. Those consist of runs all over the greater central Arizona area. Some of them finish the day with a trip back home. Other “Events” consist of overnight runs requiring lodging. We have stayed in 1950’s style RV’s and haunted hotels. Arizona offers our club such a diverse number of fun activities, there is always something to please even the fussiest member :)

The main purpose of any Miata Club is getting our members out on the road, with wind in our hair and sun in our faces. We make every effort to be a driver’s club first. One reason that the Miata had garnered such high praise, top ten reviews and intense owner loyalty is the sheer fun factor.

Reviewers say “Miata’s are a pure driver’s car”.

“The fact is that if you want a sports car, the MX-5 is perfect. Nothing on the road will give you better value. Nothing will give you so much fun.” -Jeremy Clarkson
