1995 Mazda M Edition Miata 95m Edition With Hardtop And Rollbar on 2040-cars
Niles, Illinois, United States
|
Second owner of this beautiful 1995 Mazda MX-5 M Edition with 110,900 miles on the clock. I purchased the vehicle about two years ago from an Indiana dealership and have loved it ever since. The car has retained most of its stock appearance, such as the standard factory seats, mats, BBS 15" wheels, tonneau cover, ABS anti-lock brakes, CD player, radio, power windows, antenna, A/C all work as they should. This specific vehicle is equipped with a 5 speed manual transmission. The timing belt, water pump, thermostat, valve cover gasket, fuel filter, clutch slave cylinder, CAS o-ring seal, plug wires and spark plugs have all been replaced with documentation. New (less than 10k) 195/50/15 tires are currently on the car.
The engine compartment has been left completely stock. What has been changed from factory spec is as listed: The original soft top has been completely removed and the car has since been fitted with an OEM factory paint A1Q hard top which is included in this auction. The hardtop is wonderful at increasing rigidity, reducing cabin noise, and adding a level of security to the valuables inside your car. The vehicle includes the front and rear pieces of the r-spec package. A Hard Dog Double Diagonal Hardtop M1 rollbar has since been fitted for roll over protection. The suspension has been changed with Stance Super-Sport+ 15-way dampening adjustable coilovers for a firmer ride. Also pictured and included will be the Project-G bikini top. This vehicle has served as a perfect weekend driver, and has the ability to become a great auto-x or track day car if you so desire. As you can see from the photos, the car is in overall great shape for a 19 year old vehicle.. The previous owner treated this car with great care but at the same time enjoyed it by driving it. The same level of care has passed down in my years of owning this vehicle. I have tried my best to include the small defects that I've seen, and I'll describe some here: there are two scratches near the driver side quarter panel and one on the right of the trunk, the front of the bumper has a small ding, and the front of the r-spec package has lost some paint due to rock chips. The hood has had some hail dings from the day I bought it. The driver side seat has had the tear spot pictured from the day I purchased the vehicle. These minor cosmetic issues haven't bothered me and are relatively simple fixes. The vehicle has a clear title and has never been in an accident, flood, etc. It was a summer vehicle and has only seen one Illinois winter. Overall, the car is a blast to drive, and I hope that you will be able to enjoy the vehicle as much as I have over the years! The buyer is responsible for the pick up or shipping of the vehicle. I'll be more than glad to assist in any way that I can. |

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata 2.0L First Drive [w/video]
Mon, Jun 1 2015The 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata is easy to comprehend. It is an enthusiast roadster in its purest form. There's no need for any sort of sales pitch. You don't have to ramp up in order to get people excited about it. Say the words "new Miata" to anyone who cares about cars, and you've immediately got their attention. And now that I have yours, I'll to cut right to the chase. It's brilliant. That's a fact I've known for a while. I drove the Japanese-spec ND Miata in Spain earlier this year, with the 130-horsepower, 1.5-liter engine that we aren't getting in the United States. The new Miata is a modern day reincarnation of the original NA that stole our hearts in 1989. It's smaller and lighter than the outgoing NC, yet boasts more interior room. It's comfortable. It looks great. And it drives like a Miata should. In other words, it's perfect. So what about this US-spec car, then? It's got more power – 155 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque from Mazda's 2.0-liter Skyactiv four-cylinder engine. But it's also heavier. Our car weighs 2,332 pounds, compared to the roughly 2,200 pounds of the 1.5-liter car. Yes, the ND Miata loses 12 hp compared to the outgoing NC, but it's up 8 lb-ft of torque. Plus, according to Mazda, because of the improved powerband, anytime you're under 5,700 rpm the new Skyactiv engine is stronger than the old MZR mill. It's more efficient, too. With the manual transmission, the Miata is estimated to achieve 27 miles per gallon in the city and 34 mpg highway. That a jump of six mpg in both categories compared to the old six-speed. Consider this: The Japanese-spec car uses a 130-hp engine, which I found to be perfectly adequate. The increase in power for the US-spec car mostly just balances out the extra weight, but it also improves performance on the highway. Hit the throttle in sixth gear with the 1.5 and nothing happens. Do the same with the 2.0, and there's movement. Low-end power is far more important in the US than it is in other markets, and that's why our car has the larger engine. "North America is why the two-liter car exists," engineer Dave Coleman told me. Plus, 155 hp power means you eke out the Miata's dynamics at legal speeds. 45 miles per hour in an MX-5 is a far more exhilarating experience than that same speed in any supercar. So yeah, it's not powerful. But to paraphrase Jay-Z, the MX-5 is a super car, not a supercar.
Mazda3 sales off to rocky start despite massive critical acclaim
Tue, 18 Mar 2014Like just about every other auto publication we've seen, we loved the way the Mazda3 drove when we reviewed it a few months ago, but those glowing reviews apparently aren't helping its sales. The new compact may be falling victim to a sales war between the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic, with the newcomer getting squeezed out by those with more established names and bigger marketing budgets.
According to Automotive News, Mazda3 sales have fallen every month since last August, and its sales are down 27 percent in the first two months of 2014. It certainly isn't helping that the entire compact segment is down five percent this year as well.
The biggest problem for the new model seems to be its price compared to rivals. Mazda is not offering the incentives that are on the hood of competitors. With the previous generation, the company offered more than $2,700 on the hood to move them out, but the current model only carries about $1,233 in markdowns, according to AN.
