Up for auction is my 1990 Mazda Miata with a 5.0 V8 conversion, better known as a Monster Miata. This vehicle was purchased last year as a project vehicle top turn into a track car. Unfortunately because of health and finances, I am forced to sell this cool car. The car has a salvage title, for some fender bender years ago, but was taken care of at the time. The title is free and clear. The swap used many, but not all, parts from the Monster Miata Kit. The engine is from a 1992 Mustang 5.0. The engine was rebuilt to stock specs and has hardly passed the break in mileage. The transmission is a T5 manual, which is mated to a 7.5" Thunderbird rear end. The body has a real nice unknown body kit, as well as good looking 17" wheels with very good tires. All brakes are stock, however I will include the some 1.8l brakes and brackets to upgrade. The car is not currently running just because I removed the intake manifold to upgrade, but then decided against it, and just didnt get the old one back on. The air conditioning and heater were removed and are not available. The convertible top is included, frame is good, top is bad. The car also has a 4 point rollbar. I have all of the interior pieces available. Also the seats are included, just not pictured at this time. I will post a link to a video of the car running, as well as numerous pictures. This car will make an incredibly fun project for someone. Personally I wanted to strip it all down, paint it matte black, and go race it. The conversion is not cheap to do, and this car could be up and running in two days. I MAY get it running before the end of the auction for the winner. If there are any other questions I can answer, please ask, and I will do the best I can. I can also take additional pictures if needed.

Feds investigating 2010-11 Mazda CX-9 CUVs over braking issues
Mon, 17 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating 62,000, 2010-2011 Mazda CX-9 models over brake problems. The government safety watchdog says it has received seven complaints of an observed loss of power braking power to stop the crossover, according to the The Detroit News.
The NHTSA complaints say that the problem causes a hard pedal, increased braking effort and reduced braking effectiveness. Some complaints allege that they hear a hissing noise during braking similar to the sound of air leaving the tires. No injuries or crashes have been reported.
"As always, we are fully cooperating with NHTSA on their investigation. We cannot comment further at this time," said Mazda spokesperson Tamara Mlynarczyk to The Detroit News.
2014 Mazda6 to start at $20,880*
Wed, 19 Dec 2012We got our very first taste of the impressive 2014 Mazda6 back in October, and had more than a few good things to say about the midsizer. One piece of information that was conspicuous by its absence, however, was a sticker price.
Now, with zero pomp and circumstance (not even a press release as of this writing), Mazda has dropped what looks to be official pricing for the 6 on its consumer website.
$20,880 is the asking price for the base Mazda6 Sport with a manual transmission (plus $795 worth of destination charges, for a total of $21,675). Alaska residents will need to cough up $840 for destination. The loaded-up Mazda6 Grand Touring shown on the site will set you back a total of $30,290 (MSRP of $29,495), but it isn't clear if that's the starting price of the Grand Touring trim. Mazda is taking orders for the new 6 right now, and the cars will be available on January 2, 2013.
Dealers think Mazda's new Mexico plant will increase Mazda3 sales by 20%
Mon, 27 Jan 2014Mazda3 sales in the US were down about 15 percent last year to a total of 104,713 units. According to a report from Automotive News, though, the slowdown in sales has been due more to production constraints than demand.
Good news for Mazda dealers, then, that a new plant in Salamanca, Mexico has just come online. Tom Carey, chairman of Mazda's national dealer council, told AN, "We're going to be in good shape because of that Mexico inventory." If estimates prove accurate, sales of the Mazda3 will increase by about 20 percent when the new plant begins production this month.
If those lofty projections come to pass, Mazda will reportedly be on track to exceed 300,000 total sales in the US in 2014, which would represent the brand's highest figures since its 375,000-unit peak in 1994. The brand hopes to sell more than 400,000 vehicles in the US by 2016, and with well-received products like the latest 3 and Mazda6 sedan, such expectations seem quite possible.
