I am considering selling my 2002 Mazda Miata LS. This car is a great example of an unmolested original Miata. The ONLY things that are not stock on this car are the wheels. They are the Racing Hart 17" wheels from a 2005 Mazda Speed. I do not have the originals. Other than that this car is as-equipped from the factory. The tires are brand new (205/40/ZR17 Falkens), with less than 300 miles on them. I do not have a hard top for this car.
The car has less than 38k original miles on it. Yes, I'm sure they are original, I purchased the car from the original owner and the mileage has been documented. The title reads "actual mileage". It has never been in an accident.
The car runs great, shifts smoothly and stops great. The AC is ice cold. The power windows, locks and mirrors all work as they should. The cruise works. The fog lamps work. The rear glass in the convertible top has defrost that works. It comes with 2 factory keys and 2 key-less Fobs with security, trunk release and panic buttons. I have the original owners manual in it's case and it's in nice condition. I have the original window sticker (over 27k MSRP) The top is great, no leaks. The seals are original but still in good shape. The boot appears to be unused, all the snaps work and there are no tears. The dash is perfect, no cracks or fading. The Bose radio sounds great, I have not tested the in-dash CD Player. The power antenna works.
I wouldn't call the interior spotless, but I challenge you to find a nicer one outside of a museum.
Here are the condition issues with this car.
1: The biggest issue is the paint. There are plenty of nicks, chips, scratches, door dings, scuffs and touch-ups etc. The pictures ARE of this car, taken on 9/22/2013. And it does look that good, at that distance.
2: There are a few scuffs on the outer edges of the wheels.
3: There is wear, not wear through, on the drivers seat bolster. This mostly amounts to discoloration.
4: There are a few of the LEDs in Radio display that are faded or burned out. Every function of the radio works as it should, and after driving awhile, some seem to come back on.
The third owner of this vehicle will appreciate that there will be no joy rides of this car. I expect that a buyer will want to drive the car to verify it's condition. That's fine. However, to test drive the car, I require cash in hand to complete the sale when we get back. I will accept cash only. No checks of any kind. I am not interested in trades. I have a clean, clear Florida title in my name, at my current address, in-hand to sign over to the new owner.

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata first engine shot revealed
Mon, 08 Sep 2014We've dug deep for just about every scrap of 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata info available out of the car's California reveal celebration, but powertrain particulars have been especially hard to come by. While we still don't have engine specifications, the folks over at Autoweek have scored a nice scoop - the first underhood photos of one of the display cars.
In the image above, the ND-generation Miata is clearly shown to be powered by a Skyactiv inline four-cylinder, as expected, but its displacement remains unclear. The engine is most likely either the 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G engine offered in low-end Mazda3 and CX-5 models or the 2.5-liter Skyactiv-G found in those same vehicles' upper trims. In those iterations, the 2.0-liter generates 155 horsepower and 154 pound-feet of torque, while the larger-displacement engine nets out at 184 hp and 185 lb-ft. There is no sign of a turbocharger, a feature rumored to be fitted to at least one test mule. There has also been previous rumors of a 1.5-liter Skyactiv engine, possibly for overseas markets.
The 2.0-liter strikes us as the most likely scenario, particularly as Mazda has worked diligently to save every gram in the new car, dropping a pledged 100 kilograms (220 pounds) over the current model, even while adding content. It's entirely possible that the alleged turbo car was, in fact, a mule for the Miata's Alfa Romeo sister car, which is expected to have a wholly different powertrain. Or it could simply be a second engine option for an eventual Mazdaspeed variant, perhaps.
Five vehicles named Top Safety Pick+ including new Civic, MKZ
Fri, 08 Mar 2013In an attempt to help push vehicle safety to a higher level, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety created a stricter Top Safety Pick+ rating last year, which incorporates a brutal small overlap test and requires cars to get Good ratings in four out of the five categories (and no less than Acceptable in the fifth). Joining the list of the safest cars of 2013, the 2013 Volvo XC60, Lincoln MKZ, Honda Civic (sedan and coupe) and the 2014 Mazda6 have all received the coveted TSP+ rating.
The Mazda6 and Lincoln MKZ have both been completely redesigned, and both received Acceptable ratings in the small overlap test. The Honda Civic, coming off its emergency refresh for 2013, is the first small car to be subjected to the small overlap test, and IIHS says that one of the car's many upgrades includes a stiffer front structure allowing it to receive Good ratings in all categories. Similarly, the XC60 gets all Good ratings thanks to, according to IIHS, Volvo updating the airbag software allowing the side airbags to inflate during the small overlap test.
The 2014 Subaru Forester has not yet been subjected to the small overlap test, so it must make do with just a Top Safety Pick rating until the IIHS tests small utility vehicles, which is expected to happen later in the spring.
