WE BOUGHT THIS GREAT LITTLE CONVERTIBLE NEW IN 1992. WE HAVE AROUND 55000 MILES ON THE SPEEDOMETER AND ENJOYED THE CAR IMMENSLY. BUT WE NOW ARE OLD  HAS BEENS, AND IT IS TIME TO SELL THIS WONDERFUL VEHICLE TO A YOUNGER PERSON WHO CAN GET THE FULL ENJOYMENT OUT OF ITS ROUSING PERFORMANCE. THE STICK SHIFT IS A JOY TO DRIVE AND THAT IS ABOUT ALL WE EVER USED IT FOR. THAT IS SHORT DRIVES INTO THE SUMMER SUN AND IT WAS ALWAYS STORED AWAY FOR THE MEAN WINTER WEATHER OF NORTH OHIO. THIS AUTOMOBILE CAN BE A HAZZARD TO DRIVE IN SNOWY AND ICY WEATHER.

YES, IT DOES NEED SOME WORK DONE ON IT TO BRING IT UP TO ITS BEST.  AS WE AGED WE TENDED TO LET THINGS GO AND SO THE AUTOMOBILE AS IT SITS IN OUR DRIVEWAY TODAY IS IN NEED OF THE FOLLOWING:

A NEW TOP.

A PAINT JOB

A RADIO REPAIR

WINDOWS THAT ARE ACTIVATED BY PUULING ON A ROPE AND CLOSED BY SIMPLY PUSHING DOWN ON THE WINDOW.

THE ONLY DAMAGE EVER DONE TO THIS CAR WAS A SLIGHT RAMMING FROM A VEHICLE IN THE REAR AND I REPAIRED THIS TO MY SATISFACTION AND POCKETED THE INSURANCE.

THE LAST REPAIR, WHICH I DID MYSELF, WAS REPLACE THE CLUTCH WHICH GAVE OUT A YEAR OR SO AGO.

THE RADIO HAS BEEN REMOVED AS IT BECAME VERY QUESTIONABLE AS TO ITS PERFORMANCE AS THE CAR GREW OLDER. i HAVE THE RADIO IN A BOX IN MY WORKSHOP AND I WOULD THINK IT FIXABLE.

THE ONLY PROBLEM BESIDE THE CLUTCH REPLACEMENT, WAS A SPARK PLUG WIRE PROBLEM WHICH I REPAIRED MYSELF.

I BELIEVE THE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT WORKING, BUT WOULD GUESS THAT A REFILL OF REFRIGERANT WOULD SOLVE THAT PROBLEM?

THIS HAS BEEN A GREAT VEHICLE AND I FEEL THAT IT HAS ONLY BEEN NOW BROKEN IN PROPERLY, AND WILL GIVE MANY YEARS OF RELIABLE SERVICE.

I MIGHT ADD THAT THE RUBBER IS IN NEW CONDITION AND THE BRAKE PADS REPLACED ONE TIME.

Mazda returns to rotary with RX-Vision Concept, crowd goes wild

Wed, Oct 28 2015

Rotary! Forget everything for a second. Ignore the sleek styling, formed-by-wind sheetmetal, outrageously rear-drive proportions, and general ridiculousness of the sideview mirrors. And please be so kind as to ignore the poorly lit photos here – Mazda has a thing for drama. Concentrate instead on one fantastic phrase from the concept car press release: "next-generation Skyactiv-R rotary engine." The crowd here in Tokyo was downright frothing to get a look at the new concept car – hoping to catch a glimpse of the first evolutionary stage for a RX-9 sports car. The critical factor in that effort is of course the rotary engine. Mazda says that, while production of the powerplant is "on hold," the company has "never stopped research and development towards the rotary engine." The fact that the company has named the new engine gives us great hope that it exists in reality, and will be available for sale at some future date. The devil is in the details though, and there are precious few available at the Mazda stand. Other than a brief history lesson about Mazda's racing heritage, and fuzzy-vision talk about the future, we only have expectations to feed on. Oh, there's also a tiny press release, below. Related Video: HIROSHIMA, Japan—Mazda Motor Corporation unveiled the rotary-powered Mazda RX-VISION sports car concept at the Tokyo Motor Show*1 today. The rotary engine is a symbol of the company's "never-stop-challenging" spirit. RX-VISION represents a vision of the future that Mazda hopes to one day make into reality; a front-engine, rear-wheel drive sports car with exquisite, KODO design-based proportions only Mazda could envision, and powered by the next-generation SKYACTIV-R rotary engine. Rotary engines feature a unique construction, generating power through the rotational motion of a triangular rotor. Overcoming numerous technical difficulties, Mazda succeeded in commercializing the rotary engine, fitting it in the Cosmo Sport (known as Mazda 110S overseas) in 1967. As the only automaker to mass-produce the rotary engine, Mazda continued efforts to improve power output, fuel economy and durability, and in 1991 took overall victory at 24 Hours of Le Mans with a rotary engine-powered race car. Over the years, the rotary engine has come to symbolize Mazda's creativity and tireless endeavor in the face of difficult challenges. While mass production is currently on hold, Mazda has never stopped research and development efforts towards the rotary engine.

2014 Mazda6 to start at $20,880*

Wed, 19 Dec 2012

We got our very first taste of the impressive 2014 Mazda6 back in October, and had more than a few good things to say about the midsizer. One piece of information that was conspicuous by its absence, however, was a sticker price.
Now, with zero pomp and circumstance (not even a press release as of this writing), Mazda has dropped what looks to be official pricing for the 6 on its consumer website.
$20,880 is the asking price for the base Mazda6 Sport with a manual transmission (plus $795 worth of destination charges, for a total of $21,675). Alaska residents will need to cough up $840 for destination. The loaded-up Mazda6 Grand Touring shown on the site will set you back a total of $30,290 (MSRP of $29,495), but it isn't clear if that's the starting price of the Grand Touring trim. Mazda is taking orders for the new 6 right now, and the cars will be available on January 2, 2013.

2016 Mazda6 and CX-5 see gentle price hike

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Mazda has modestly updated the Mazda6 and CX-5 for the 2016 model year, and the company just announced revised pricing for the pair. The vehicles cost a little more now, but buyers also get additional features and an improved look. When it comes to the 2016 Mazda6, the already attractive sedan wears a revised look up front with more chrome and a redesigned cabin with a new instrument layout and seven-inch infotainment system on most models. Mechanically, things carry over with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder making 184 horsepower and 185 pound-feet and either a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox depending on trim. The base Sport trim with a six-speed manual gearbox costs $305 more than it did in 2015, and starts at $21,495*, plus an $820 destination charge on all models. Upgrading to the automatic gearbox at $22,995 also adds the revised infotainment system and reverse camera. Prices top out at $30,195 for the Grand Touring, which is $300 more than last year. All of the other versions see a $100 year-over-year increase. LED headlights are standard on the Grand Touring, but they can be added to the Touring through the Touring Technology package for $1,675. The 2016 CX-5 sees light exterior upgrades and similar interior improvements as the Mazda6, including the improved infotainment system for some trims. Pricing rings up for $250 more than last year, except the all-wheel drive Sport trim at just an extra $50. The cheapest CX-5 is the front-wheel Sport with a manual gearbox and 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 155 hp and 150 lb-ft, and it costs $21,795. All other models combine a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 184 hp and 185 lb-ft with a six-speed automatic. Prices go all the way up to $29,470 for a CX-5 Grand Touring with all-wheel drive. There's a new i-Activesense package for the Grand Touring for $1,500, as well, that adds safety sensors and radar cruise control, but it can only be combined with the Grand Touring Technology Package for $1,505 with navigation and LED headlights. 2016 Mazda6 Pricing Announced IRVINE, Calif. (February 9, 2015) – Mazda North American Operations (MNAO) today announced pricing for its refreshed 2016 Mazda6 midsize sedan lineup. The 2016 Mazda6 is available in three trim levels – Sport, Touring and Grand Touring – and is equipped with the SKYACTIV-G 2.5-liter gasoline engine. There are a number of enhancements for 2016 including bold changes to the shape of the instrument panel and floor console giving the interior a fresh new look.
