********** 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.

Mazda struggles to meet demand on rising sales
Mon, 23 Sep 2013
For Mazda there's good and not-so-good news on the heels of strong US sales in 2012: demand is high - especially for the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5 - but supply is low, TheDetroitBureau.com reports. That's partly because all Mazda production happens in Japan, since it ended its alliance with Ford and pulled out of a joint venture with the blue oval building cars in suburban Detroit last year.
In 2012, Mazda sales here jumped 26.4 percent, but 2013 sales through August have just been keeping pace with the overall US auto industry, increasing at a rate of 6.8 percent. Mazda North American Operations director of marketing and communications Jeremy Barnes says that sales have slowed because the company is facing challenges delivering products here.
Petrolicious lets a 1971 Mazda RX-2 howl
Fri, Jan 15 2016Rotary engines scream to the heavens in the best way possible. To hear a wonderful example of the Wankel's battle cry, turn up your speakers and watch Petrolicious highlight an immaculately clean 1971 Mazda RX-2 in Australia. Owner Jason Humble took three years to build his RX-2 from a bare shell, and he started competing with it in vintage racing in 2005. The little coupe's class pits it on track against Mustangs and Camaros, but Humble claims that he's regularly near the top of the pack thanks to the Mazda's communicative chassis. We don't get to see the RX-2 mixing things up on track in the Petrolicious video, but Humble does treat us to a drive through the Australian countryside. He's happy to let the coupe's rotary rev, and the little engine is capable of making a wonderful noise. It's great to see Petrolicious continue to give the spotlight to these sometimes overlooked classic Japanese sports cars.
Mazda Miata 'fathers' Hall and Case offer a tour through the roadster's history
Wed, 10 Sep 2014The original Mazda Miata broke onto the automotive scene in 1989 and was a huge success. However, the convertible's genesis goes all the way back to the early '80s. Bob Hall and Dean Case were among the inside men of the program on the US side, and they were on hand at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca during the recent MX-5 event there to tell some of their stories about the project's beginning.
Hall was on the Miata project from very early on, and one of his most fascinating stories is how the convertible got its shape. The droptop wasn't necessarily going to be a rear-wheel drive roadster. There were both front-wheel-drive coupe and mid-engine concepts being considered. In fact, the classic look of the NA generation was the least favorite of the three at the sketch stage.
Hall comes off as a jokester hiding a genius mind. He has a fountain of information in his head about what a Miata should be, but it all comes down to "less is more." However, he admits that it's easy to conceive that idea, but it's much harder to actually execute it well.
