The car was never driven in winter and has little to no rust.
I'm the 3rd owner and have it since 2011. Bought it with 62k on the clock and only put another 4k miles in 3 years on it. Car was bought completely stock (other than short ram intake) from a gentlemen in his 50s who had 4 more other cars and was driving miata on a very rare occasions. The original owner was his friend who owned it for the first 3 or 4 years.

The car is in a really good shaped - the one you would expect from a car with just 66k, never driven & garaged in winter through it's entire life and well taken care of. The car is my joy ride which I basically only drive on the weekends.
The only thing that needs attention is paint - I polished the car after I got it and the paint layer became very thin so the car currently has a few minor scratches here and there. There are a couple of minor dents as well. I was looking to repaint the car entirely, so the issue wasn't addressed.
The car will be sold with a factory hardtop which also has some paint chips.

There was no corners cut or expense spared maintaining or modifying the car.

I purchased the car as I always wanted cabriolet for the summer. Then I made a few mods to make it more enjoyable to drive. The car had never been to track or auto-x.
I had all modes documented on my old pc, but HDD died and I never recovered the list so I might be forgetting something. All modes were professionally installed by a good friend of mine who is a well known mechanic & diagostics specialist in my area.


Maintence:
- Oil changed every spring at the beginning of the season with full syntetic mobil 1 5w30
- Timing belt (oem), spark plugs (NGK irridium), spark plug wires (NGK), brake fluid (motul rbf600) & battery (oem) were replaced when I got the car in 2011


Modes list (all modes were done by me and have less than 3 years / 4k miles on them):
- Rays engineering Volk Racing TE-37 15x7 white rims with 205/50/15 Dunlop Direzza Star Spec tires (purchased in 2011, have around 4k miles on them)
- Rays red valve stems, Rays Formula hub caps, Rays extended red lug nuts 
- Boss Frog Clearview Single Hoop rollbar painted flat white
- NB 6-speed Mazdaspeed Miata transmission purchased with around 25k miles on it, currently sitting at around 28k
- NB 4.1 limited slip rear differential with currently around 5k miles on it
- Energy Suspension rear diff bushings
- Mazda competition motor mounts
- 949 Racing Twin Disc organic race clutch
- Upgraded clutch master & slave cylinders, stainless steel clutch hose
- Flyin' Miata cannon rear subframe brace
- Flyin' Miata full butterfly brace
- I'm probably forgetting something since the original mode list is gone

Mazda doubles down with a pair of Threes

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Looking to appeal to the compact tuner crowd, Mazda brought two different flavors of its 2014 Mazda3 to the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week. The Club Sport 3 Concept hatchback (above) has more of a racing vibe to it, while the Vector 3 Concept sedan (right) looks to inject a little extra fashion into the all-new Mazda3.
Hotting up the 3, Mazda stuck with the stock 2.5-liter engine on the Club Sport 3 Concept but added a limited-slip differential and six-speed manual gearbox, the latter of which was lifted from the CX-5 crossover. Other upgrades include coil-over shocks, a performance exhaust, Brembo brakes and an aero body kit - the latter of which will be offered to buyers at a later date.
While the Vector 3 Concept does get some performance bits like two-piece Brembo brake rotors and grippier tires, the focus on this sedan is all about styling. Starting with a custom paint job and ghost stripes, the whole look is tied together with 19-inch, V-spoke Rays wheels.

Mazda and Clemson collaborate on Deep Orange 3 concept

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

There are school projects, and then there's the Mazda Deep Orange 3 Concept Car, a one-off built by Clemson University automotive engineering students and designed by Frederick Naaman from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. Clemson students unveiled the chassis at the 2012 SEMA show in Las Vegas, although this is the first showing of the car fully clothed.
Sporting a unique hybrid powertrain that can automatically switch between front-, rear-, and all-wheel drive. A gas-powered engine handles the fronts, while the rears are powered by an electric motor and a battery pack. The Deep Orange 3 also has an unusual three-plus-three layout, making it a much cooler version of your parent's old Vista Cruiser. The exterior sheetmetal clearly follows Mazda's established design language, and looks like it could easily pass for a five-door version of the Shinari Concept. It really is a great looking vehicle.
The Deep Orange 3 was part of Clemson's graduate-level auto engineering program, and is a regular partnership between the east coast school and the Pasadena-based design college's students. Clemson, Art Center and Mazda will be showing the Deep Orange 3 at the Center for Automotive Research Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City, MI, from August 5 to August 8.

2023 Japan Mobility Show Mega Photo Gallery: All the highlights and reveals from Tokyo

Fri, Oct 27 2023

The 2023 Japan Mobility Show managed to serve up a surprise heap of exciting and futuristic designs and production reveals. Our staff was on the ground in Tokyo for this year's show, where we captured not just all of the latest automotive trends, but some genuinely weird and fascinating stuff.  Browse: Some Delightful Oddities of the 2023 Japan Mobility Show But on to the cars. This year's show featured introductions from Daihatsu, Honda, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota. Some are weird; some are wild; most are probably destined to change significantly before production or merely fade into the void with the rest of the industry's vaporware, but if even a few of these make it to showrooms, we'll consider it a win. Scroll on down for our live galleries of each of the show's major debuts (and cars we're only now seeing in person for the first time).
