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.

2015 Mazda2 revealed ahead of Paris debut [w/videos]

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

Small cars may be big business, but the world's automakers don't seem to be in any particular rush to keep them fresh. The new Smart Fortwo unveiled yesterday replaces a model that's already been around for seven years, and based on a structure dating back to the late '90s. The new Opel Corsa revealed just last week replaces a model that had been around for eight years. And the Mazda2 has been on the market in its current form for seven years now, but not for much longer because Mazda has finally revealed its successor.
Set to be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show this October, the new Mazda2 follows the stylistic lead of the Hazumi concept remarkably close, from the sharply creased front end right down to the wheel design - bringing the supermini hatchback in line with the KODO design language that characterizes its bigger siblings: the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5.
Although details released thus far are rather limited, and power will vary from one market to another, engine options center around a 1.5-liter four in both gasoline and diesel versions, joining the manual and automatic transmissions and the chassis itself under Mazda's Skyactiv technology umbrella. We wouldn't expect the diesel version to make it across the Pacific (or across the border from the plant that will build it alongside a new Toyota hatch in Mexico), but rumors have surfaced of a potential rotary hybrid. The new 2 will also include the company's MZD connectivity suite and i-Activsense safety technology.

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata reveal livestream is here and now

Wed, 03 Sep 2014

Let's not understate the significance and difficulty of what's been accomplished here. In this ever-connected, constantly surveilled modern auto industry, Mazda has pulled a coup - it's kept a new vehicle under wraps. Yes, we've seen hacked up and camouflaged mules and maybe a form under a sheet, but Mazda is about to reveal its next-generation MX-5 Miata, and the car - let alone its specifications - hasn't been leaked anywhere yet. Not via clandestine camera phone snapshot, not by patent drawing, not by leaked ad copy, not even by diecast model. Believe us, we've looked.
And this isn't just some humdrum crossover or workaday compact, it's the Miata, the world's most popular roadster, apple of the enthusiast community's eye and seeming center of gravity for the Japanese automaker. For those who are genuinely excited about cars - about motoring - this is an impressive feat. If anything, Mazda's radio silence regarding the fourth-generation ND Miata has only served to heighten our anticipation for a model that probably won't reach showrooms for another year.
So, what's true and what's false among all the rumors? Will the already lightweight Miata really shed hundreds of pounds? What exactly will live under hood and drive those rear wheels?

Mazda3 with Skyactiv-X engine technology caught testing in the wild

Thu, Aug 31 2017

Sometimes, automakers are fine with their mules coming under the watchful lenses of spy shooters. Proof of this can be seen plastered across the bodysides of the Mazda3 mule you see above. Clearly, Mazda wants the world to know that engineers are working hard on the company's so-called Skyactiv-X engine technology so badly that it's created a custom matte black vinyl wrap for its test mules. Clever. Expect to see this sweet new engine tech in the 2019 Mazda3. This SCCI, or Spark Controlled Compression Ignition system holds tremendous potential to boost the efficiency of gasoline-powered engines by 20-30 percent, thereby matching the fuel economy of a comparatively sized diesel engine. As an added bonus, torque figures are expected to jump a similar amount. Besides the placard-sized stickers, there isn't much to see here. The car is clearly a Mazda3 hatchback, though the fenders are punched out a bit and the fuel door is modified from stock. We'd wager that future prototypes will wear a lot more camouflage to cover up next-gen bodywork. In other words, stay tuned.
