1999 Silver Miata on 2040-cars

US $6,500.00
Year:1999 Mileage:192403
Location:

Leslie, Arkansas, United States

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.

Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata won't get power folding hardtop

Thu, 11 Sep 2014

Following the reveal of the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata, more and more details (and rumors - oh, the rumors) are coming out regarding exactly what's in store when the car finally goes on sale. Our own Chris Paukert had plenty to say about the exterior and interior, and we've now seen the first photo of the engine. But a new report from Automobile sheds even more light on the 2016 Miata - specifically, that the power folding hardtop model won't be available, at least initially.
Automobile reports that the 2016 MX-5 will only be offered with a cloth top, and an insider confirmed that the mechanism is light and accessible enough that it can be raised and lowered with one hand from inside the car. Mazda officials would not comment on the availability of a hardtop in the coming years.
That said, a hardtop Miata isn't out of the question. There will likely be some sort of fixed roof available - even as a one-piece, lift-off accessory - if only for club racing. Also, remember that the current NC Miata's hardtop is the only one on the market that doesn't take up any additional trunk space, so it's an attractive proposition for buyers. Currently, the power hardtop is only offered on the Club and Grand Touring MX-5 Miata trims.
