2005 Mazda Miata Base Convertible 2-door 1.8l on 2040-cars
Naples, Florida, United States
|
********** 2005 MAZDA MIATA MX-5 ********** THE SLICK COCKPIT OF THE MAZDA MIATA IS PACKED WITH EYE-CATCHING AMENITIES, INCLUDING RED-GLOW ALUMINUM GAUGES, WELL-BOLSTERED BUCKET SEATS, A SHORT-THROW SHIFTER AND A THREE-SPOKE LEATHER-WRAPPED STEERING WHEEL. SILVER-FINISHED INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES, AIR VENT BEZELS, CENTER PANEL AND GAUGE RINGS ENHANCE MIATA’S SPORTY YET SOPHISTICATED LOOK. MIATA’S ZOOM-ZOOM PERSONA SHINES THROUGH FROM UNDERNEATH THE HOOD. BOASTING A HIGHLY RESPONSIVE 1.8-LITER, 142-HORSEPOWER ENGINE (AT 7000 RPM), MIATA IS UNDOUBTEDLY A FUN CAR TO DRIVE. THE 16-VALVE, FOUR-CYLINDER ENGINE USES VARIABLE VALVE TIMING (VTT) TO MAXIMIZE LOW-END TORQUE AND HIGH-END POWER, GENERATING THE GET-UP-AND-GO ACCELERATION ENJOYED DURING DAILY DRIVING AND WORSHIPED ON THE RACETRACK. IN AN EFFORT TO BUILD THE BEST-HANDLING ROADSTER ON THE MARKET, MAZDA DESIGNERS CONSTRUCTED MIATA WITH A LOW CENTER OF GRAVITY AND SPREAD THE CAR’S WEIGHT EVENLY OVER THE FRONT AND REAR WHEELS FOR PERFECT 50/50 WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION. DUE TO AN INHERENT LACK OF STRUCTURAL STIFFNESS IN CONVERTIBLES (THE STEEL ROOF STRUCTURE OF A COUPE CONTRIBUTES AS MUCH AS 40 PERCENT OF THE CAR’S CHASSIS STIFFNESS), MAZDA’S ENGINEERS ADDED AN INTEGRATED POWERPLANT FRAME TO THE CHASSIS, LOCKING THE TRANSMISSION AND DIFFERENTIAL TOGETHER AND MINIMIZING TWISTING AND MOVEMENT IN RELATION TO THE ENGINE AND FRAME. THEY ALSO DESIGNED BRACES TO FULLY TIE THE FONT AND REAR SUSPENSION TO THE CHASSIS, AND BRACE ACROSS THE REAR OF THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT TO FURTHER REDUCE BODY FLEX. THE RESULT IS AN EXCEPTIONALLY RIGID CHASSIS/BODY COMBINATION THAT DELIVERS PURE DRIVING ENJOYMENT BECAUSE IT IS SO FORGIVING AND PREDICTABLE. THIS VEHICLE HAS A REBUILT TITLE. THE VEHICLE WAS LOCATED AT A NEW MAZDA DEALER DURING A STORM. THERE WAS DAMAGE INFLICTED DURING THE STORM IN THE WAY OF A BROKEN WINDOW. A SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND THUS WAS CLAIMED AS A LOSS TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE VEHICLE HAS SINCE BEEN DRIVEN FOR OVER 18,000 MILES WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. CLOSE INSPECTION WILL REVEAL THAT THERE WAS NO PERMANENT WATER DAMAGE TO THIS VEHICLE. ANY POTENTIAL BUYER IS WELCOME TO AN INDEPENDENT INSPECTION TO VERIFY THE CONDITION. TRANSPORTATION CAN BE PROVIDED FROM SW FLORIDA/ FT. MYERS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. WE CAN ALSO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE IN SHIPPING THE VEHICLE ALMOST ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.
Mazda on sales upswing in Europe but won't build there
Sat, 20 Jul 2013Auto sales in Europe have been a tricky proposition for some years, but Mazda has seen some success on the backs of the CX-5 and new Mazda6. According to a report form Automotive News Europe, though, that doesn't mean we should be looking for the Japanese manufacturer to set up production operations there.
Mazda's European CEO, Jeff Guyton, explained to AN that "Our intention is to have manufacturing scale. That gives you scale economy and quality through repeatability." In other words, a big honking plant in one part of the world is preferable to a half dozen small factories building the same vehicles.
European sales for Mazda are up 5.4 percent in the first half of 2013, with 74,000 units sold. That kicked the Zoom-Zoom brand's market share up from one to 1.2 percent. Small gains, but gains nonetheless. According to Guyton, Mazda would need to sell 200,000 units of just one model in Europe for local production to make sense. Mazda's best European year saw 320,000 units sold across the entire range.
Mazda MX-5 Miata to spawn coupe, Mazda6 to get quick successive updates
Thu, 28 Aug 2014
Despite the PRHT's availability, some are still yearning for a proper fixed-head coupe.
We are just days away from the official unveiling of the next-generation 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata on September 3, and it's fair to say that the mouths of enthusiasts are watering in anticipation for the latest version of this iconic roadster. Hard facts about the new droptop aren't easy to find, and in the absence of further disclosure from Mazda officials, the rumormill is in full swing, including word that a long-awaited hardtop coupe model will figure into the new generation's plans.
