90 Miata Red/silver 5 Speed Extraordinary Example Rust Free Florida!! on 2040-cars
Plant City, Florida, United States
Exceedingly nice example of an early Miata. Runs and drives properly, freezing AC, "makes it's own gas". Tasteful repaint in red over silver. 205/40/17's Good seats and doorpanels - Top appears new. Dash excellent - Carpets have the "fake" plastic mats Stereo I cannot identify: says iPLUG XDMA690 CD Reciever Media Player 200W - sounds fine to me - Plug in glovebox looks like MP3 player input - extra RCA's and plug in trunk Starts, steers, shifts and stops correctly. The oversize wheels and tires do not detract from the drive like I thought they might. I put a couple hundred miles on it already. Reminds me of my old MG days without the problems. Miata's are all "J" VIN cars, made in Japan as in "made well". Rust free. I took pictures of the underside, the bottoms of the doors and down in the recesses of the engine bay. The Carfax shows a lot of inspections in March and April in NY? Maybe they kept the car there and used it summers or maybe they kept it here and drove it up in the spring? I took some of the pictures where I washed the car - not leaks My theory of internet auto selling: I sell every car as if the person is going to come and get it, even though a great many people have it shipped to them. Anyway the principle is this: If I describe the car as being better than it is and you come here, what have I accomplished? I have an irate person who is right here, took time off, traveled a distance etc. Never happens if you take the time to read what I wrote and/or CALL me on the phone. Great Miata for the money here. FAULTS: In so far as I can determine...... Some chips here and there - A couple of fairly bad touch up's (done by me) - Hood pull handle loose (works fine though) - Split in the seam at the top of the passenger seat - Typical Miata tappet noise at warm start up (I go through a lot of these cars and they all seem to do it, I am driving it everyday, if it goes away I will edit this out) I put in a couple pictures of a "born without air", somewhat funky, 97 Miata I have as well. $2500. Runs great and would be a good starting point for a race car. Look at the pictures (50+) and CALL me - He who CALLS first gets the car bought..... 863-852-6315 We do our own shipping door to door, email for a quote sunautogroup@aol.com I have been in the car business over forty (sheesh!) years, and at this location for ten. |

Mazda reveals 25th anniversary edition MX-5 Miata alongside next-gen chassis
Thu, 17 Apr 2014Ford may be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Mustang this week, but it's not the only automaker with a sports car icon to fete at this year's New York Auto Show. Mazda is also celebrating the 25th anniversary of the MX-5 Miata with an array of 15 classic models. It's also showing off the chassis for the next MX-5, and unveiling a special 25th Anniversary Edition.
The special edition is based on the retractable hardtop model with either manual or automatic transmission, Bilstein shocks, a metallic red paint job with contrasting black roof and an off-white leather interior. Naturally, special badging can be found inside and out to set it apart from the record 940,000 other MX-5s sold to date, and just 100 examples will find their way to US buyers.
Along with the two-tone special, Mazda is also showing off the new Skyactiv chassis and engine that'll underpin and power the upcoming next-generation MX-5 (as well as an as-yet-to-be-determined Fiat Group roadster if the two parties can work out their differences). With a lower center of gravity that's also closer to the middle of the car, the new chassis promises even better balance and a good couple hundred pounds of weight savings over the outgoing model. Check it all out in the press releases below.
Mazda books first yearly profit in half-decade, NA still a drag
Tue, 30 Apr 2013Automotive News reports Mazda has posted its first annual profit in five years. The company made $364.3 million in the last fiscal year, following a $1.14 billion loss the year prior. Operating profit also jumped up by $91.3 million to $572.8 million, thanks in part to a revenue increase of 8 percent to $23.42 billion.
But the news isn't all rays of sunshine. North America continues to be a problem for Mazda where the automaker posted yet another loss. The manufacturer lost $519.1 million last year, up from $427.8 million the year prior. While the launch of the CX-5 helped see US sales increase by 2 percent to 273,000 vehicles, the region as a whole bought up 372,000 units. Mazda had predicted closer to 380,000 units.
Even so, Mazda says it should have North America back in the black by next year, with the company forecasting a sales increase of 11 percent to 415,000 units in the region. That's thanks in part to a boost from the redesigned Mazda6 sedan.
Road & Track to take Miata on million-mile march
Sat, 11 Jan 2014Road & Track has taken on a Miata project. One hell of a project, if we're honest. You see, the Miata in question, a 1989 example in Mariner Blue, isn't a high-mileage Mazda that the publication intends to fix up, or make race-worthy, or try to flip or give away to a reader or something. No, it's a rather typical well-used NA, with a hefty 325,000 miles on the clock to-date that the staff plans on driving until the six-digit odo reads all zeros again. One million miles or bust (or both, most likely).
Procured for the bargain-basement price of $1,600, complete with seat covers that "really do look like muppet pelts" (according to Zach Bowman) and a bondo-filled love tap on the nose, the NA Miata actually looks like just the sort of fun-machine that a real driving enthusiast would pick up to get some cheap thrills in. The R&T team already has some interesting plans for the Miata, including a potential run up Pikes Peak and loaning it out to readers (or perhaps your author...). Click through to read all about it.
