 Mileage – 150K miles on car.  This averages out to 13K a year for the 11 years I have owned the car.  I would say it is about a 70/30 split between highway and city driving…

Service – car was maintained with the recommended manufacture service schedule form local Mazda dealer, as well, the oil has been changed every 5K miles using new oil, not the re-manufactured crap you get Jiffy Lube. About this time last year, over $1500 was spent replacing the gaskets and seals on the engine, the spark plugs and wires/coils, throttle valve, front breaks, and some other miscellaneous maintenance..  The transmission oil has also recently been changed and was given a clean bill of health.. 

The brakes and suspension are in great shape with no flutter; however, I will say that a set of tires are on the horizon for the new owner and the car is price as such..  I would guess there is still 10K of meat left on them.

Appearance and Body – considering it age it looks good and is very clean..  There are a few parking lot dings scrapes and bumps, etc.,, but nothing bigger that a dime..  This car has never been in an accident as verified by the Carfax report. All the lights are working with no cracks, all power windows and side sliding remote doors work as they should, as with the power remote locks..  Also has a trailer hitch with a working standard plug for the trailer lights..  This was added for a bike rack which is included.  As for the extras… the only thing added to this car was an iPod hook up right to the radio..  Outside of that it is a stock well taken care of mini-van.

This car is mechanically sound and very tight, and I would not hesitate to drive this van coast to coast.

Long Road Racing will build you the Miata that Mazda won't

Tue, Jun 6 2017

One of the frustrating things about new cars today is that many features are exclusive to this trim level, or that package. Even the enthusiast-friendly Miata has many restrictions how you can configure one, which can make choosing one a bit tricky. You can't have the cheapest one or the leather-clad one with a limited slip differential, for example. And adding aftermarket parts on your own runs the risk of voiding your warranty. Long Road Racing, however, has a possible solution for creating the ideal, warranty-covered Miata. You may not be familiar with Long Road Racing, but you probably heard about one of its most-publicized products, the MX-5 Cup car. The car was developed by Mazda with the intention of creating a global spec series, and Mazda reports that about 140 of the cars have been sold so far. Every single one of those cars went to Long Road Racing to be specced out for racing before reaching their customers. So the company is familiar with the car, and has applied its expertise to its "Ultimate MX-5" program. The way the program works is, once you've purchased a 2016 or 2017 Miata, you can send it to the company to have it customized to your needs. The company has an extensive list of parts to choose from, all of which have been selected by the company to work well together. But if you need something outside of its offerings, or just need help choosing from the list, you can get in touch with the company to discuss how best to achieve your goals. Long Road Racing will also customize any trim level of Miata, and can even create a Miata Mazda didn't offer. For instance, you could have a Grand Touring with the leather interior, but also with the limited-slip differential and Brembo brakes from the Club model. All of these parts are fully warrantied by Long Road Racing for the length of the OEM warranty, and they don't void the factory warranty. We had the opportunity to try out a car customized by Long Road Racing at the M1 Concourse track in Pontiac, Mich. The car was there to sample alongside some of the MX-5 Cup cars as well as several of Mazda's stock road cars to drive on course. The road-going Long car started as a Grand Touring model, and it retains its heated leather seats and automatic climate control.

2014 Mazda6 Skyactiv-D Wagon

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

This was sort of a quirky surprise drive opportunity. I've been over here in Italy for a while now, and Mazda Italia contacted me seemingly out of the blue to drive test some version of the Mazda6 with a diesel engine. Supremo. The Mazda6 is a sexy everyday beast and I have been digging their SkyActiv-D engines for a while now. Very spirited units.
My contact phones me the day of, and says he can come by with the car, and then we'll head off to some sort of special spot for dynamics testing and technical conversation. Nice deal, say I.
My guy Ernesto pulls up outside of the house and - lo and behold - it's a dang Mazda6 station wagon with the very most recent 2.2-liter SkyActiv-D motor good for 148 horsepower and healthy 280 pound-feet of torque. The wee four-banger with 14.0:1 compression ratio hauls this 3,260-pound wagon around with the best of them. A decent 0-to-60-mph time of 8.7 seconds, too.
