I am selling a 1999 Miata with lots of extras.  Most can be seen in photographs; otherwise I will elaborate upon.  
I replaced the factory radio with a Pioneer stereo system that has a CD/DVD player,  hands free phone capability and navigation system in July of 2013.  The stereo system was approximately $1,000.00.   At the same time I replaced the factory speakers and had the windows tinted.
The removable hard top has new window seal as well as bottom gasket. 
I have a cover and rack for the hard top which I am throwing in.  These items are not shown in the pictures.

I also have GarageStar bolt-on brackets for removable hard top.  In case you are unfamiliar with these, they are designed to prevent a quick "grab and run".  I have never gotten around to putting them on, so it just has the factory spring loaded latches. 
I have the original owner's manual, as well as the manual for the new stereo system.
Whereas this does not have the leather interior, it does have a Nardi steering wheel. 
It has a Billet grill.  
The AC is cold, and the heat is hot!
As can be seen in one of the pictures, there is some wear on the driver's seat.

The current mileage is 192,403.  At the time of the sale, mileage will probably be a bit higher, but not much. 
Even though, to the best of my knowledge, there is nothing seriously wrong with the vehicle mechanically, I realize the mileage is going to scare some people.  That is why I have the low Buy It Now for a quick sale.

As previously mentioned, this rides very firm, but there are no rattles, shimmies, vibrations, pulling, or any other negative "driving feel". 

MAINTENANCE:

At 185,928 miles the tires were replaced as was the timing belt, all light bulbs, brake pads and slotted rotors.   The tires that were put on are 205/45 R16.   I BELIEVE factory tires were 185/60 R14 and an option was 195/50 R15.  If I was 20 or 30, I would say these 16 inch wheels and tires are great; but they are REALLY, REALLY a firm ride which is tough on an old geezer like me!
 All of this cost $1,831.67.

At 186,662 I had the cylinder head rebuilt at a cost of $1,563.45. 

Now that I spent all this money on mechanical things, I have decided the car is just too small for me, and recently purchased a Z 28 convertible.  Therefore, I no longer need the Miata. 

I feel the pictures pretty much speak for themselves.  I have several more pictures ready to go, so if you want to see anything from a different angle or in greater detail, let me know and I will email them to you. 

If someone would like to look at the vehicle before bidding, I am located about 100 miles north of Little Rock, Arkansas in the Ozarks.   If you want the vehicle shipped, I will not make the arrangements, but I will work with your shipper in any way that I can. 

There are probably several things that I have forgotten to mention, so if you have any questions, I will answer them as completely as I can. 

A $200.00 non-refundable deposit by Paypal is required within 24 hours of auction's end.  Balance of payment (either cashier's check, money order, or cash) must be received before car is released.  Once car is paid for, I am willing to store it in my garage for a "REASONABLE" amount of time.  This time can be discussed with buyer at time of sale.

Mazda CX-3 almost ready for LA Show

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

The Mazda CX-3 is just days away from its unveiling at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show, but elsewhere in the world, the Japanese brand still has the compact crossover disguised for testing. These spy shots aren't too camouflaged though, and when combined with the previous teaser image, they give a pretty clear idea what the new model will look like.
The grille here is well covered, but the photo from the front reveals the similarities to the design sketch. The rear shows a similar horizontally oriented design as the Mazda2, which the CUV is based on. However, the dipping sides around the B-pillar from the teaser don't appear to be on this tester. Even with all the swirls, the vehicle looks fairly attractive.
Mazda is doing a fantastic job of keeping mechanical details about the CX-3 a secret. It's not yet known whether the model is front-wheel-drive only or if all-wheel drive is also an option. The crossover also likely shares the Mazda2's engine, which isn't revealed for North America, yet. The diminutive CUV will compete with a huge crop of new classmates, including the Fiat 500X, Jeep Renegade, Chevrolet Trax and Honda HR-V. Check out the gallery for the latest glimpses of this Japanese CUV just days ahead of its full debut.

Tow truck driver hilariously bad at righting a flipped Mazda

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

Can rolling your car get any worse? The correct answer is yes, as this poor soul found out when he rolled his Mazda3 onto its side. Calling a tow truck might be a logical, post-rollover move, but in this case, it kind of made the situation worse.
We don't want to give away just what happened, so you'll need to scroll down and watch the video. A fair warning, though, it does contain a moment of colorful language towards the end, so watching it at work, with the volume up, might not be wise. Have a look below for the full video.

Mazda3 celebrates 10 happy years

Tue, 25 Jun 2013

Mazda is on the cusp of unveiling an all-new Mazda3, but the compact will mark an important milestone before that happens. The very first Mazda3 rolled off of the assembly line on June 25, 2003. A decade later, the little car has snagged some 136 awards. The first generation sold 2.2 million units over the span of six years, and the second has smiled its way into the hearts of 1.4 million buyers since 2009. Mazda notes the machine even took the honor of being the top-selling passenger car in Australia in 2011 and 2012.
So, what will the future bring? The Japanese automaker is keeping the details to itself for the moment. From the spy photos we've seen, it looks as if the new design will fall under the company's new Kodo design philosophy. That same language brought us the perilously sexy Mazda6, and the new Mazda3 should be no less attractive. You can check out those photos here.
