1999 Silver Miata on 2040-cars
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. |

Honda, Nissan and Mazda recalling 3 million vehicles for airbag inflators
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Three million more vehicles can be added to the worldwide tally to be repaired for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata. Honda, Nissan, and Mazda have all issued recalls to replace the bad part, including about 1.2 million of them in North America. NHTSA has been investigating all three companies, plus Chrysler and Toyota, for potentially affected vehicles.
Honda is recalling roughly 1.02 million Civic, CR-V, Odyssey and Element models In North America, built between April 2000 and October 2002. Mazda needs to repair 14,794 units of the RX-8 and Mazda6, and Nissan has 228,000 vehicles in North America to be fixed.
Chrysler is also starting what it calls a "regional field action" to replace the inflators in the 2006 Dodge Charger, according to a company spokesperson. The company says that it has not yet found the problem in any of its vehicles, but it's being done "out of an abundance of caution." The final number of Chargers affected will be announced later this week.
Mazda and Fiat finalize deal for Alfa roadster, next-gen MX-5 Miata
Fri, 18 Jan 2013Although a little bit later than expected, Mazda and Fiat have signed a final agreement that will bring a next-generation MX-5 Miata to the Japanese automaker and a new roadster to Alfa Romeo. When the proposed arrangement was announced back in May, the two automakers had hoped to seal the deal last year, but it doesn't appear that the production timeline for these cars has slipped any, with both expected to start rolling off assembly lines in 2015.
Other than a shared chassis with a rear-wheel-drive layout, it sounds like the two cars are still planned to be distinct in their own ways from their styling right down to their engines. Mazda will produce both cars at a plant in Hiroshima, Japan, but it isn't clear what role each automaker will play in the cars' developmental process. The big question, of course, is what clever portmanteau name we can come up with, like Toyobaru. Mazda Romeo is the easy choice, but Alfazda might roll off the tongue a little better.
Scroll down for a brief press release from both automakers.
Jay Leno celebrates Mazda Miata's 25th birthday
Mon, 10 Feb 2014Ask a car enthusiast what the best driver's car on the road is, and the Mazda MX-5 Miata is very likely to come up rather quickly. Unjustly saddled with a reputation as a "chick's car," the Miata has been, over its three generations, one of the finest driving instruments ever built - it's light, agile and rear-wheel drive with direct, snappy steering, an engine that revels in being revved and a precise, smooth-shifting transmission. The fact that it's ridiculously affordable and reliable is simply a bonus.
It should come as no surprise then, that a car with these traits has endured for 25 years, a milestone reached only by some of the most famous nameplates in the auto industry - Corvette, Mustang, F-150, SL, M3 and so on. To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Jay Leno spent some time with the little roadster that could, while also chatting with two of the Mazda employees that were central to the MX-5's arrival on the world's automotive scene, Bob Hall and Tom Matano.
Take a look below for the latest video from Jay Leno's Garage on the excellent Mazda MX-5 Miata.
