An excellent example of an American Miata in JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) trim. In Japan it is not called a Miata Convertible, it is a Eunos Roadster and is RHD with different badging and trim and colors and seats. I had purchased a Japanese Sales Brochure and a book with great color pictures and set about making my Miata over into a Eunos. After all, several years ago Mazda proudly announced the production of its millionth Miata, takes a bit of imagination to make yours stand out in this.... sea..... of long-lived Miatas.
One road-tester for a car mag called the Miata the "finest MGB that England never made", this was based on the similarities between the two cars: same weight, same CCs of engine, similar length/width/etc. Except the Miata regularly exceeds 200,000 miles as a good functional sports car, (you can find em on Ebay with those miles)....but the MGB ...not so much...sad, and I used to race an MGB in RMVR, loved em. But lack of reliability, early parts failure and so on doomed the Brits. O well.
The car is strangely optioned, power mirrors and steering with headrest speakers and manual windows?
Now there are cheaper Miata-Eunos cars out there but consider:
NEW in last 17 months: 4 tires, complete clutch SYSTEM (clutch, TO-bearing, P-Plate, clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder, refurbish flywheel), new top, 4 wheel alignment, new grille, JVC CD and radio, EUNOS bits, inner tie-rods, radiator and A/C condenser and silicone hoses, air-management undertray, brakes, refinishing Daisy wheels with clear lacquer, timing belt/water pump and A/C belt, etc.
Some of the more significant costs: tires=350, clutch System=2100, top=900, align=80, JVC=130, tierods=340, rad=155, condenser=105, hoses=50,timingbelt+pump=515.
total= $ 4,775. for the big lumps. All the other stuff: Wipers, Eunos Bits, louvers, swapping all the major-fluids and so on...who can keep track? So all the Major Maint and replacing stuff has been done (receipts for all the above go with the car).
And then I hit a tall Chevy SUV (Slid under his rear bumper) at 25 miles per hour in the rain....just two weeks ago.
So you can see the pics of the car before, and after with the primer front. I am due to see the new front-bumper cover tomorrow for possible purchase. So I had to replace the hood, passenger side front fender, one headlightr cover, a bumper support bracket and the bumper cover, The marker lights and reflector lights did not get broken because of the slow speed so....all the bits went back on with tasteful mods (see louvers pics). All the lights work well and the car moves down the road straight and smooth. Were it not for the primer you would never know. But now I am at a crossroads, about to move my girlfriend in (yeah, even at age 72 you still have "Relationships") and I own two convertibles, a Eunos-Miata and a Mustang. Gotta sell one so.....both are listed, fate will sell one and I will keep the other. And then her Elantra will sleep inside and there will be peace in the house..
So you can fly in and drive home in a solid reliable car. I will meet you at the airport with a full tank and point you in the right direction.
NOTE: someone sent me an email on a point that I was not clear enough on....The car is completely repaired and I am driving it now MINUS the bumper cover. I am looking at one tomorrow that may/may-not be worth buying? So the Worst-Case is that you buy a Eunos that is completely drivable to go home in...minus the front bumper cover. The Best-Case is that you buy a Eunos with the front bumper cover fitted that is completely drivable to go home in. BUT IN EITHER=CASE THE CAR IS IN PRIMER FROM THE WINDSHIELD FORWARD. So it will require paint and I would recommend, for obvious reasons, white. Color is up to you of course. And both fenders have been sanded on the inside and painted with Rustolieum satin black (see pics) so that the car will outlive its brethren without rust. Nothing like being OCD...
NOTE: the S-covers (pictured) were available only in Japan and covered the speakers in the door, who knew the Japanese were into art-deco. You also get all the stock parts that were replaced by Eunos bits: hubcaps, door sills, emblems, etc. As the JDM brochure shows, they were available in Japan with red or blue interiors in addition to the black/tan we got offered and my red console? You also get the black console with it. See pics. Also have all the front end lights, Marker and Side both. You also get the original Miata cassette player/radio (in the JVC box). In addition I have two more cans of the red flexible spray paint for the doors. And the headlights pop up and shine like always. The grille is Moss Motors new, and the somewhat rare plastic piece that goes across the bottom of the windshield (always cracked) is perfect and hanging on the wall. And I am sure that I have forgotten to list all the extra bits but they will be loaded into the car as I have no use for them if the Eunos sells before the Mustang.

Wards names its 2015 10 Best Interiors list
Fri, Apr 17 2015Wards Automotive has named the winners of its 10 Best Interior awards, covering a wide but affordable array of vehicles. Where last year's list contained two six-figure vehicles, including the $372,800 Rolls-Royce Wraith, this year's is, well, a whole lot more reasonable. The publication lists the Mercedes-Benz C400 at $65,000 (which seems off), making it the most expensive vehicle here. That said, we'd argue that the entire C-Class line deserves to make this year's list, owing to its varied and high-quality selection of materials. The other vehicle to break the $60,000 mark, meanwhile, is the $60,675 Ford F-150 King Ranch, which has 327,000 pounds of leather lining its interior. Only one other German car, the BMW i3, and one other pickup truck, the GMC Canyon, managed to make this year's list. Here's the full list of this year's winners: 2014 BMW i3 ($52,550) 2015 Chrysler 300C Platinum ($51,175) 2015 Ford F-150 King Ranch ($60,675) 2015 GMC Canyon SLT ($40,465) 2015 Honda Fit EX-L ($21,590) 2015 Jeep Renegade Limited ($33,205) 2015 Kia Sedona SXL ($43,295) 2016 Mazda6 Grand Touring ($33,395) 2015 Mercedes C400 ($65,000) 2015 Nissan Murano SL ($41,905) See what we mean about the mainstream vehicles? Not only is there a distinct lack of luxury brands, it's the price of some of the vehicles that surprise. The Honda Fit, Jeep Renegade and Mazda6 are very reasonably priced, especially when you compare Wards price with the starting price. The Renegade Limited starts at less than $25,000, the Mazda at less than $22K and the Fit at under $16,000. Head over to Wards for a more detailed explanation of why each vehicle won.

Top Gear recounts the fiery demise of the Mazda Furai
Mon, 02 Dec 2013This past September we reported on Top Gear's destruction of the Mazda Furai, one of the finest concept cars to ever grace an auto show stage. It turns out that the Furai, which was burned nearly beyond recognition at the hands of the British magazine, was actually destroyed back in 2008, and that the entire thing had been covered up for five long years.
Now, a few months after publishing that heart-wrenching composite of a half-baked Furai (shown above), the lads at TG have published their account of just what resulted in a priceless concept car being transformed into a smoking hulk on a Suffolk runway. Click over to read the full story about just what happened, along with pictures of the Furai before, during and after the inferno.
2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year entries announced
Wed, Jul 6 2016Over 40 vehicles will compete for the 2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year awards. If that name looks a little strange, it's because the competition added a third category. In years past, pickup trucks, crossovers, SUVs, commercial vans, and minivans competed for the same award. That's why there were occasionally weird comparisons, like last year's competition between the Volvo XC90 and Nissan Titan XD. The new format separates pickups and commercial vans into the truck contest and CUVs, SUVs, and minivans into the utility competition. A complete list of eligible vehicles is below, but here are a few highlights. For one, the entire list of entries has a luxurious lean. Of the 43 vehicles, nearly half of them are from premium brands. There are two eligible Bentleys – the Bentayga and Mulsanne – the Rolls-Royce Dawn, Jaguar F-Pace, Audi Q7, and the Mercedes-Benz GLS-, E-, and S-Class Maybach. The performance ranks are lofty, too, with the Audi R8, Acura NSX, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Mercedes SL- and SLC-Class, Porsche 718, and F-150 Raptor. The mainstream entries are just as comprehensive. From the Chrysler Pacifica to the Chevrolet Cruze to the Fiat 124 Spider to the Mitsubishi Mirage, NACTOY has covered an enormous price range with this year's contestants. Of course, these are only the eligible vehicles. They'll need to run through three rounds of judging, starting in September at NACTOY's traditional Hell, MI, test drive. The Canadian and American journalists involved in the judging will announce this year's nine finalists – three in each category – on December 6.
