2007 Mazda Miata Grand Touring
Red Mica with Tan Leather Seats and Canvas Top
6-Speed Automatic with paddle-shifters
Leather, Heated Seats
Just under 60,000 miles but will be driven occaisonally until sold
Brakes are original, but have plenty of life left. Tires were new last fall with about 5,000 miles on them. Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus. Also included for this price are a set of 1-season old snow tires and lug nuts, Michelin X-Ice Xi3 mounted to aluminum wheels, Sport Edition F10, like new with only a few thousand miles driven.
Car includes premium package, with Xenon headlights, RFID "smart-key" door locks, and stability control. The key is credit-card shaped and you don't even have to take it out of your pocket/bag/wallet.
I also added, and installed by Partyka Mazda, an OEM limited slip rear end that was parted from a 2006 miata. In addition, I've added an aux input to the factory Bose radio
Other add-on is an air-horn. Not train-loud, but helps get attention when needed. Also included is a cabin air-scoop for those top-down summer drives. (Google cool-breeze scoop if you're interested)
I absolutely love this car, but I have automotive A.D.D. and am looking to buy something else this year.
For the bads, there are a few things that are known as problems on this model/year car, that are present. It's a small convertible, and noises are easily heard. You can hear the fuel pump, since it's just behind the seats. Plus, there are a few interior squeaks that come and go. Didn't stop me from taking it top-down to Alabama and back though! The seatbelts are a bit lazy, the drivers especially so. This doesn't effect their use or safety, other than you have to help them back in. The speakers have developed a buzz that comes and goes, which is a common problem with the Bose speakers, since they are not shielded from the weather from inside the door and eventually rain and humidity get to them. There is an aftermarket replacement set available for $2-300 if it becomes too bothersome for you. The other maintenance item that should be considered, is that one of the serpentine guide pullys in the engine is beginning to develop a slight whine. This is just a 60,000 mile maintenance item that needs addressed at some point, and parts are less than $100. 2 of the rims have curb rash, but this was before the new tires, so all are balanced and roll smooth. Paint is 8.5/10 as there are the usual small scratches and front end chips, and 2 small dings over the LR wheel well.
Any questions?
There is currently a lien on the vehicle, which will delay you being able to register it for a short while.

2015 Mazda2 spotted in Japanese magazine
Tue, 16 Jul 2013The styling changes at Mazda are proceeding at a fairly quick tempo. The CX-5 was unveiled, followed by a refreshed CX-9, the excellent Mazda6, and most recently a new Mazda3. This all happened over the course of less than two years, which in the auto industry is like a long week.
Now the Mazda2 is getting its revamp. Thanks to a magazine scan from Japan, we now have our first look at the new sub-compact, called the Demio, in its home market. Mazda's familial front end has been fitted, and it doesn't look quite as suited to the smaller car. Lacking the long-hood look of the Mazda3 and Mazda6, the new styling looks overly rounded, almost bulbous from our angle. It's still attractive, but the shape is kind of off-putting compared to the chiseled faces of the 2's big brothers. We'll concede that the folded magazine page may have something to do with it, however.
The next-generation 2 should adhere to Mazda's Skyactiv philosophy, which means we can expect a highly efficient four-cylinder engine, although it's impossible to say if Mazda will do away with its smallest offering's one-engine strategy. Considering the Mazda2 will be riding on a shortened version of the CX-5's platform, we'd expect some degree of mechanical parts sharing, regardless of how much the larger platform needs trimmed. Perhaps a detuned version of the 2.0-liter, Skyactiv four-cylinder could be under the 2's hood?
Mazda hard at work on Skyactiv 2 engine technology
Wed, 08 Jan 2014As Mazda continues the current rollout of its still-new Skyactiv technology, the automaker is already looking at improving its family of engines for even better fuel economy and emissions reductions. Automotive News reports that with stricter fuel economy and emissions regulations planned for 2020 and 2025 in Europe, Mazda will likely release engines with next-generation Skyactiv 2 technology by the end of this decade, and Skyactiv 3 units just five years later.
The latter is expected to focus on improved engine cooling and lessening energy losses, but the big news in AN's report is that the next-gen Skyactiv 2 engines will use Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition, or HCCI. This type of ignition is very similar to how a diesel engine operates (with high compression and using the compression stroke for fuel combustion rather than spark plugs), a method said to provide a cleaner and more efficient fuel burn - to the tune of a 30-percent improvement in fuel economy compared to current Skyactiv engines. Other automakers, including Hyundai, have already announced they are developing HCCI powerplants with similar technology and characteristics, so Mazda likely won't be a lone wolf here.
Equipped with HCCI technology, Mazda figures to be able to compete with larger automakers in terms of fuel economy and emissions without resorting to hybrid powertrains, continuously variable transmissions or automatics relying on more forward gears (eight or more) for optimal efficiency. Some of the challenges of HCCI, according to AN, include the need for better engine cooling, risk of misfire at high and low rpm and uneven engine performance based on fuel properties.
Mazda just restored the 787B's forgotten older brother
Fri, Aug 12 2016Among Mazda's many racecars, none is as famous as the 787B, and for good reason. The 787B remains the only Japanese car and the only rotary-powered car to win overall at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. It wasn't Mazda's only successful endurance racer, though. Before the 787B, there was the 767B. Mazda's 767B racecars competed in the IMSA GTP class at endurance races throughout 1989. They featured 630-horsepower four-rotor engines and were very successful in their class. This newly restored car took first and second place class finishes in five of the six races it participated in, and each finish was in the overall top ten. The one exception was a DNF in which the transmission failed. Twenty-five years after the 767B's glory days, Mazda initiated a complete teardown and restoration of the aged car. The work was done by Downing Atlanta and supervised by former Mazda racers Rick Engman and Jim Downing. (Fun fact: Downing was one of the designers of the HANS device.) The shop has also restored other racecars for Mazda, including one of the 787Bs. The car went through a two-year rehab and will make its track re-debut at the Monterey Motorsports Reunion. The event takes place next weekend at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca where the track will once again feature the angry shriek of a competition-grade rotary engine.
