Three finalists will be selected to attend auditions with the CarAdvice expert panel in Sydney on August 15 where they will be among the first people in Australia to test drive the all-new 2015 Mazda MX-5. From there, the expert panel, consisting of CarAdvice founder Alborz Fallah, FIA World Rally Driver, Chris Atkinson, TV Presenter and car enthusiast, Lauren Philips, and James Ward, Associate Publisher at CarAdvice will select the CarAdvice Correspondent winner.
 
“Three months of living and breathing the latest new cars - for anyone passionate about cars or interested in a new career avenue, this has to be a once-in-a-lifetime dream opportunity,” said Andrew Beecher, CEO of CarAdvice.
