Year:2006 Mileage:35000 Color: trim changes
Location:

Springboro, Ohio, United States

Springboro, Ohio, United States

 I purchased this car two years ago, it has never seen snow, always garaged, never used as a daily driver, and was in Florida until 2012. Beautiful condition with many expensive extras.  Wife says too many toys and this one has to go.

This is a collectible MX-5 that will retain its value when compared with non-limited edition cars.
It also has the desirable, optional black leather interior. Runs and drives as new, except for the improved handling. . .and gets an honest 30 MPG!

The paint is in excellent condition, with just a few typical, tiny paint chips on the nose. Interior shows virtually as new, with no notable wear on the seat bolsters, carpeting, etc.
Includes factory manuals and both keys, original window sticker.

I have the clear title, and the car is ready to drive anywhere. Car is located in Springboro, OH.

Extras:
• New Enkei PF01 17" Alloy wheels (perfect; not a scratch) with new Michelin PS2 235/40ZR-17 tires. Perfect fit with absolutely no rubbing.
• Custom fitted CocoMats which match silver 3rd Generation Limited trim.
• H&R coilovers and sway bars. Lowered to a height that looks fantastic, improves handling, yet rides great with no issues. Easily adjusted higher or lower if desired.
• AEM cold air intake
• Flyin Miata sport exhaust for a great sports car sound
• HID (high intensity discharge) headlights
• Hidden hitch for hitch mounted bike rack

Standard equipment on the 3rd Generation Limited includes nearly every feature Mazda offered on the MX-5:
• Velocity red mica special paint
• 6 speed manual transmission
• Limited slip differential
• Leather interior (this has the optional black leather)
• Keyless entry and power locks/windows
• Power mirrors
• Cruise control
• Bose sound system with CD changer
• Leather wrapped steering wheel
• Tilt steering wheel
• Steering wheel controls for audio system and cruise control
• Air conditioning
• Fog lights
• Stainless steel door entry scuff plates
• Numbered "3rd generation limited" badge
• Silver/chrome trim throughout specific to 3rd generation limited cars

Below is a write-up covering the 3rd Generation Limited:

"As the range-topper, the MX-5 3rd Generation Limited's eye-catching color and unique features will surely turn heads and bring pure driving excitement to all who sit behind the wheel."
Only 3,500 3rd Generation Limited cars will be available globally (just 750 in the US) -- each delineated by a numbered plate on the transmission tunnel -- ensuring they'll be in short supply and moving fast off of dealers' lots.
The exclusive color for the MX-5 3rd Generation Limited is Velocity Red Mica. Front and rear bumpers feature the same distinctive red color, while the front bumper grille, A-pillar, outer door handle, head lamp bezel and foglamp cover all boast unique, silver trim. In addition, and to make the car stand out from a distance, the windshield frame is clad in silver trim. Between the Velocity Red Mica paint, dynamic 17-inch alloy wheels with exclusive silver finish and the exterior trim changes, onlookers and owners alike will recognize it as a truly exceptional -- and collectable -- vehicle.
Inside, the MX-5 3rd Generation Limited includes a Sirius(R) satellite radio-compatible seven-speaker BOSE(R) AM/FM/CD stereo, stainless steel scuff plates and a numbered badge. In addition, exclusive red leather seats nicely match the exterior of the car and offer excellent support and an ideal driving position. Black leather seats are optional.

Mazda3 diesel under consideration for US, hybrid not so much

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

It's been a long time coming, but we finally clapped our eyes on the real deal, officially official 2014 Mazda3 in hatchback form yesterday. Yet there's a lot more to learn about this next-generation version of what has always been one of our favorite compacts. We know that the US version will come with one of two Skyactiv engines, but what about alternatives? Will there be any... or will the gasoline-fed four-cylinders be powerful and frugal enough to carry the day?
According to Automotive News, the answer is a definite maybe. Mazda North America CEO Jim O'Sullivan has told the trade publication that his employer will consider adding the company's well-liked 2.2-liter Skyactiv diesel powerplant to the model down the road. However, the company first wants to see how the engine fares with American consumers in its big-brother Mazda6 sedan, a model that goes on sale later this year. As for a potential Mazdaspeed3 successor, mum is still the word.
Anything else? Uncharacteristically, Mazda will build a hybrid model of its new 3. We say "uncharacteristically," because the Japanese independent has long shied away from gas-electric powertrain tech. In fact, it's gone so far as to boldly announce its aversion to the technology, with auto show banners proclaiming "Not Electric. Not Hybrid. Not A Drag To Drive." Despite all that, this new generation of Mazda3 will in fact be the company's first full hybrid production model. According to AN, however, O'Sullivan says that the company has "no plans" to sell it in the US.

Xcar tries to figure out what makes the Miata so great

Tue, 12 Aug 2014

Over the past 25 years and 3 model generations, the Mazda MX-5 Miata has shown that you don't have to be the best to be a massive success. The little, Japanese roadster has never been the absolute peak of automotive performance, but it's precise handling, good reliability and frugal running costs have helped make it a star. Autoblog recently tried to give you the experience of driving one on video, and now Xcar Films has made its own in an attempt to show what makes this droptop an icon.
As Xcar puts it, the Miata isn't the world's best sports car, but it is the world's favorite. When they were originally designing the roadster, Mazda's engineers took everything that made British droptops from the '60s great, and junked all of the stuff that made them a terror to own. The result was a car that would start up everyday with no fuss and get drivers wherever they needed to go with a huge grin on their face.
The fourth-generation Miata is imminently on the way for its September 3 unveiling, and the very early rumors indicate that Mazda doesn't plan to rock the boat too much with the latest one. It supposedly rides on a longer wheelbase and wider track but with the weight trimmed by over 200 pounds. Check out Xcar's video for a primer on MX-5 history and why the automotive world loves this little roadster.

Mazda has right mix to chase 120,000 more US sales

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

The Mazda MX-5 Miata was named to Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list for the eighth year in a row and for the fourteenth time overall. The CX-5 tops or comes in as runner-up on every AOL Autos staff poll we take on compact crossovers. The Mazda3 is a perennial favorite among auto critics. That's three clear, unquestioned winners in the Mazda showroom. So, why does Mazda seem to struggle sometimes for recognition and clarity in the marketplace?
For that, I chatted with Mazda North American Operations President, Jim O'Sullivan, who has run the outfit since 2003. O'Sullivan, a former Ford sales and marketing executive who came to Mazda from Dearborn, MI when Ford owned a controlling stake in Mazda, is one of the quieter, but very menchy, leaders in the industry whose longevity in the job speaks to the stability of Mazda.
