I am the original and so far the only owner of this 2002 Blazing Yellow Mica Special Edition Miata. In the year that these were made this car was one of only 1000 produced. The other special edition color that year was Titanium Gray of which there were 1500 produced. So first of all this car was rare to start with. I purchased it and drove it off the dealer's showroom floor for it's first trip (other than being put in there in the first place). Since that day it has been protected by a garage throughout the year and a garage and a car cover through the off season. It has only seen the rain fall once. That was the weatherman's fault, not mine. It has never gone out in the spring before the salt is all off the road, and I put it up for the year way before the salt hits the road. My intention when I purchased this car was to treat with the utmost love and care and have it later in my life as a collector car that I could take to car shows with me. My health and therefore, my financial situation calls for me to rethink some of my priorities. This gives some lucky person out there a chance to own a fantastic car that you can't just find out there every day. Believe me, I look frequently just for fun. (And I keep looking for a 2000 Evolution Orange Special Edition - also rare)
That being said, it is not what you might think is a great deal considering the cost. But from the research I keep trying to do I think my pricing is fair. And if you don't, obviously you won't be buying it yet. I am including in the purchase the original window sticker that was on the car when it was new. Also the extra set of keys. The vehicle is equipped with an engine immobilizer if someone tries to take it without the keys. It also has a perimeter shock sensor alarm. I received a gift from Mazda after my purchase which was a leather duffel bag with "feet". I have never used that and it still is in the original box it was shipped in. See, I was really in this for the long haul as a collector's item. I currently have the vehicle insured with Haggerty Insurance Co. for a replacement value of $20000. I got that value with just a few pictures of the car.
I didn't really know what all to take for pictures so if you would like to see something specific just let me know. Also, any questions let me know. I have had the vehicle serviced at the dealership where I bought it since 2002. The guys there enjoy seeing it come back every year looking like it did when it left. The last of the pictures of the car shows the only damage that is on it. The very first month I owned it I pulled a little to far into my garage and hit a planter. I put touch up paint on the spots I made on the bumper.
As far as picking up the car or having it delivered to you, I have the flexibility to help you work on that if you need help. So, thanks for looking and feel free to contact me.

Mazda returning to top-tier racing with diesel-powered prototype in USCC
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Mazda has unveiled its latest challenger in the top flight of endurance racing, a diesel-powered prototype that will campaign the inaugural, 2014 Tudor United SportsCar Championship. The new Skyactiv-D-powered car will make its race debut at January's Rolex 24 at Daytona.
"This is the most significant step Mazda has taken towards returning to the global racing stage since our overall victory at Le Mans in 1991," said the director of Mazda Motorsports, John Doonan. That historic racecar, the rotary-powered 787B, has grown to become one of Mazda's many, well-known racers.
More recently, the Japanese brand has been making waves in the Grand-Am series, campaigning RX-8s and, most recently, running diesel-powered Mazda6 sedans in the GX-class. Mazda will campaign two factory-backed prototypes at Daytona. Driver lineups will be announced closer to race day.
NHTSA urges owners of recalled Takata airbag vehicles to take immediate action
Mon, 20 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Department of Transportation are taking the unusual step of issuing a followup press release urging owners of certain recalled vehicles "to act immediately" to fix their cars and trucks. The problem in question concerns the repair campaigns for rupturing Takata airbag inflators issued in June and covers a long list of models from Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Infiniti, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Oldsmobile and Pontiac.
While NHSTA doesn't specifically say why the recall is vital in the new release, Toyota's own explanation in its newly announced renotification campaign earlier today sheds some new light on the topic. According to the Japanese automaker, in testing, Takata found a possible link between the rupturing airbag inflators and high humidity. NHTSA is advocating that all owners pursue repairs immediately if they haven't already done so already. This is especially crucial for those drivers especially in Florida, Puerto Rico, Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, Virgin Islands and Hawaii because of the humid conditions there.
We don't need to tell you how dangerous an inadvertent airbag deployment could be - even in a stationary vehicle - but adding to the Takata issue is fears that the deployment could lead to shrapnel being sprayed into the cabin.
Reminder: Come hang out with Autoblog and the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata on Tuesday, May 19
Fri, May 15 2015Do you love chilidogs, French fries, meeting new friends, and the world's most popular convertible? Do you live in Southeast Michigan? Do you like lists of questions? If you answered "yes" to any but the last of those, we'd like to invite you to a little get-together we're hosting next week. Driving impressions are still under embargo for the US-spec 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata, but somehow we've conned convinced company PR reps to show the car to you, Joe Public Autoblog Reader. We're enthused about telling you more about the ND Miata, but before we do we'd love to share a Coke and talk about cars. Here's the skinny. A group of Autobloggers will be hanging out at the Athens Coney Island, in Royal Oak, MI, next Tuesday, May 19. We'll have the car on display from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and we'd love to see you. If you're a Miata owner, we'd also love to for you to bring your car along for the party. The more convertibles the better (just be prepared to have your picture taken). Go ahead and set your navi for Athens – 32657 Woodward Ave., Royal Oak, MI 48073 – and we'll look forward to seeing you Tuesday. Mazda Geeks unite. Related Video:
