This is a 1994 Miata M-Edition with 84,000 miles. I am the 4th owner. The second owner drove it until the timing belt broke at the 83,000 mile mark then let it sit. The third owner bought it to repair, but didn't have time to, so I bought it from him. The body is perfect with absolutely no rust.
The following have been replaced:
o The Radiatior
o All radiator hoses
o Fuel Injector Harness
o Most Gaskets
o Timing Belt
o Engine Mounts
o Clutch Master Cylinder
o Clutch Slave Cylinder
o Fuel Tank (yes, the Fuel Tank)
o Starter
o Battery
o Radio
o Tires
o Vinyl Top
The air conditioning system was professionally repaired by Mazda of Wesley Chapel and is blowing cold air. The fuel injectors were removed, professionally serviced and flow tested and they are working like they're new.
Here are all the negatives:
o The leather seats are worn and need to be either covered or replaced. See picture.
o While installing the new cloth top, I inadvertantly drilled a hole through the top. I know, I was cursing myself for days. It's been patched and doesn't leak at all. I've driven the car in the rain and not one drop has come in. But, and you knew there was going to be a but, right? But, I tried to match the color of the repair to the top and I did a brutally awful job. Good thing it's small. See picture.
o The paint. I'm no paint expert, but I think it's a top (clear) coat problem. It looks like it peeled off the front fender (see picture), but the rest of the body looks good.
o Speakers - Their best days are behind them.
o Antenna - Top is broken and I believe it should retract, but it doesn't.
o Steering Wheel - is worn
Only 3,000 of these were made in 1994. According to a Miata websire, "the Mazda Miata M Edition series of vehicles are very desirable and sought after by Miata enthusiasts. Searching for a low mileage clean M Edition and finding one is to may like finding the ultimate Miata. Fairly expensive when first introduced, they can now be found priced as a regular used car, particularly if the seller has no idea what an M Edition is. Further, the well known used car resale value guides seem to somewhat under value what Miatas are actually trading hands for. Most clean Miatas will usually sell over blue book value, that's not to say you can't find one at a bargain price though. M Editions are not sequentially numbered and their VIN numbers will be scattered throughout the regular run for each year".
The 1994 M Edition was produced in Montego Blue Mica (color code M8) with tan leather interior, tan boot, and tan top. Special Features: Nardi wood shift knob and hand brake handle, polished 7 spoke alloy wheels with locks, air conditioning, stainless M Edition sill plates, M Edition custom mats, M Edition key ring/badge/lapel pin gift set, Includes all A and B package options which included: power steering, leather- wrapped steering wheel, power mirrors, alloy wheels, Torsen limited slip differential, cruise control, power windows, headrest speakers, power antenna.

Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"
Mon, 03 Dec 2012The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.
Mazda2 production fires up in Mexico
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Mazda has officially kicked off production of the next-generation Mazda2 at the company's new factory in Salamanca, Mexico. Alongside the auto assembly plant, operations have also commenced at the facility's engine machining factory.
"With the start of production of the all-new Mazda2, operations underway at the engine machining plant, and an increase in our annual production capacity, we now have an even stronger production framework capable of supplying global markets with Skyactiv products of the same high quality level as those made in Japan," Mazda de Mexico Vehicle Operation's President Keishi Egawa said in a statement. "At the same time, we are pleased to be able to make a contribution to Mexico's further economic growth."
MMVO joins Mazda's Hofu Plant in Japan and the Auto Alliance factory in Thailand, which commenced Mazda2 production in July and September, respectively.
Mazda3 Skyactiv-Hybrid and CNG Concept shown in Japan
Thu, 21 Nov 2013Mazda has received a tremendous amount of public and industry praise in the last few years, following up the successful introduction of its Skyactiv technology (powertrain and otherwise), with strong products like CX-5, Mazda6 and most recently, the Mazda3. At the Tokyo Motor Show, Mazda has taken yet another step forward with Skyactiv and the 3, showing the compact (called "Axela" in Japan) with an all-new compressed natural gas engine in the Skyactiv-CNG Concept.
The end result of the Skyactiv-Hybrid is fuel consumption estimated at something like 74 miles per gallon.
Mazda thinks that CNG-powered vehicles are due for an uptick in demand, and the company believes this new powertrain will add valuable breadth to the Mazda3 range. The CNG Concept is actually a duel-fuel vehicle, capable of running on either natural gas or gasoline. In fact, we're told that the high compression ratio (14:1) inherent in Skyactiv-technology gasoline engines makes conversion to CNG particularly simple.
