2008 Mazda MX 5 Touring Hard Top. Near perfect condition! We bought this car in early spring from a dealer with 10000 miles on it. It was traded in by the son of the older gentlemen that had bought it new! He had transferred the title to his son? That is why the title exception showed up on the carfax. My wife works for the Illinois Sectetary of State we verified this. This is a no accident low miles car! We added a new Roadster Q exhaust ( nice mellow monza sound). The as new factory exhaust goes with the car! I curbed (Very slight ) one of the rear wheels at the bank. I have a new OEM wheel that goes with the car. I am very particular. We also added a few pieces of chrome trim to the car that are pictured. We installed a Burlwood dash trim kit (Not the cheap stuff ) , it looks great and really dresses up the car! The tires have over 60% tread left and it drives perfect. It has the 6 speed manual. It also has the Bose premium stereo. The car is the Retractable Hard Top model. This option is a great option to have! The car has the tire inflator in the trunk and all the manuals in the glove box. It also has the factory mud flaps and lower valances front and rear. I have owned numerous British sports cars over the years and decided to by this Mazda because it is so much better than the old british stuff. I am an avid collector and we bought this car for my wife and I to enjoy this summer. If you have not driven one you should befor you buy. You will be very impressed with the power, styling and fit and finish ! I am sending my 2008 Shelby GT to Shelby to have it upgraded to a GT/SC. That is why this car has got to go, for now. We will probably buy another next year , We really liked this car! My phone number is 618 841 2918 with any questions or to see the car in person. There is a lein at our credit union. We are experienced car people and can assist with a smooth financial transaction. We will assist with shipping arrangements but we encourage you to fly in and drive it home! This would be a great Christmas present for that special someone! ( Hint Hint) We are Kevin and Moni Shaffer call us with any questions.

Xcar tries to figure out what makes the Miata so great
Tue, 12 Aug 2014Over 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.
2014 Mazda3
Fri, 12 Jul 2013The Cure For The Common Corolla
I hate the Toyota Corolla. I'm not talking about the new 2014 model; I can't yet judge a car I haven't driven. I'm referring to the current, old-as-dirt sedan. As an appliance, I get why people buy it, but it represents everything that I, as a car enthusiast, dislike. I don't like looking at it, I don't like sitting in it, and I really don't like driving it. There is absolutely no amount of emotion dialed into any part of the Corolla experience and every other vehicle in the segment is a far better choice. But still, somehow, Toyota sells 'em like hotcakes.
Thankfully, there are a lot of people who agree with me. And for folks like us, companies like Mazda exist. This small Japanese automaker places emotion and driver involvement as its top priorities when creating new products, and mostly - especially in recent years - the end results have been great. The new CX-5 crossover is a doll, to say nothing of the rakish and lovely new Mazda6 that launched earlier this year. And let's not forget the Miata...
Modded budget Mazda Miata takes on new Porsche Boxster in more challenges
Tue, 23 Sep 2014Earlier this month, our friends across the pond at Auto Express released the first in a two-video series that would see them try and build up a second-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata that could best a standard Porsche Boxster around the track. While that first video detailed the mods to the MX-5 - a supercharger, some suspension upgrades and a new set of super-sticky rubber being chief among them - and set baseline lap times for the stock car, today, we have the results of the 5,000-pound ($8,200) upgrade job.
Of course, we aren't going to spoil those for you. You'll need to watch the full video, which recaps the upgrades before digging into a comparison of both straight-line-speed differences between the 2.7-liter Porsche Boxster and blown Miata, as well as their behavior and lap times on the track.
