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 to celebrate 25 years of MX-5 with 15 Miatas in New York
Thu, 20 Mar 2014Having first debuted at the Chicago Auto Show in 1989, the Mazda MX-5 Miata has been on the market now for an impressive 25 years. So to celebrate that quarter-century anniversary, Mazda is bringing no less than 15 examples of the legendary roadster from throughout its history to the New York Auto Show this year.
Mazda isn't saying just which versions of the MX-5 it's bringing to the Javitz center this year, but with three generations to choose from and over 900,000 units built and sold, there are plenty of examples - including production versions, special editions and concept cars.
What would really put the cherry on this birthday cake, however, would be if Mazda were to surprise us in Manhattan with the debut of the highly anticipated fourth-generation Miata that we're expecting to debut sometime this year.
eBay Find of the Day: 1990 Mazda Miata with just 27 original miles
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Some cars have low mileage, and others have close to no miles at all. This 1990 Mazda Miata, currently listed on eBay Motors and located in Kingman, Arizona, falls into the latter category with only 27 miles on the odometer, according to the seller. But we have to wonder: how did one of the best-driving, most influential sports cars of the past two decades sit without being driven for 24 years? Consider it the seller's loss on this one.
The seller says he bought the car with 20 miles on it, and explains 6.9 miles were added when the car was towed home on a car dolly. It was never registered. Furthermore, the seller says the car didn't come with a set of keys, so he had to have a set made. Though the paint is clean and shiny, the Miata didn't escape minor cosmetic damage over the years, with scratches on the hood, the trunk and the factory hardtop that is included with the car. The front, right fender has a small dent as well, which can be seen in a picture. The seller says the car was stored in a building with windows, so the paint is faded a bit in some places. It's missing its antenna and the battery, and the only non-original parts on the car are the windshield wipers. The clear-title car comes with all paperwork, according to the seller, but, besides the owners manual, he didn't specify what other documentation would be included.
With bidding currently at $10,300 and the reserve not met, this Miata definitely isn't the deal of the century, and we have to question where the value is in this one. The way we see it, it's hard to justify the money if it can't be driven as-is (come on, no battery?), has questionable history, isn't rare and sat in storage for its whole existence. The "weather cracked" tires are probably just the first rubber parts on the car that need to be replaced before it can be driven, but at least the spark plugs were removed and the cylinders were filled with Marvel Mystery Oil prior to storage, which helps to prevent rust and corrosion from forming in the engine.
Mazda considers expanding Takata recall nationwide
Tue, Dec 9 2014Vehicle recalls have come in force recently. Honda expanded its front driver's side Takata airbag inflator recall nationwide to cover an estimated 5.4-million vehicles, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration added 19 notices to its database covering safety campaigns dating back to October. It looks like there could be one more to add to the list soon because Mazda is considering a possible nationwide expansion of its own inflator repairs. A company spokesperson tells Reuters that there is no decision yet when to actually make this nationwide expansion of the driver's side inflator recall official, and the company isn't sure how many vehicles may be affected. Mazda just expanded the scope of its Takata inflator recalls to additional regions earlier in December. The move took its total number of units in need of repair from around 65,000 under the earlier NHTSA estimate to 86,773, according to the company. So far, the automaker's US campaign has included the 2003-2007 Mazda6, 2006-2007 MazdaSpeed6, 2004-2008 Mazda RX-8, 2004-2005 MPV and 2004 B-Series pickup.
