Mazda has officially confirmed that the 2009 MX-5 / Miata facelift, the first photo of which hit the net on Wednesday, will make its global debut at the Paris Motor Show in October. The Japanese automaker hasn’t released any details whatsoever, so for now, all we know is that the 2009 Miata / MX-5 gets a new face that is distinguished by the trapezoidal grille, the new fog light inserts, the restyled front bumper with a splitter and the more angular shaped headlights. Additionaly, the facelifted version features new alloy wheel designs and more sculptured side-skirts. While we’ll have to wait to see the car up close for our final take, we reckon that the styling tweaks manage to give Mazda’s highly successful rear-wheel-drive roadster a sharper look.
