Rapid City, South Dakota, United States

Oh, The Things we do for Love! I bought this little beauty 2 years ago. It had been hit in the rear end, all she needed was a bumper cover and a trunk deck. No suspension damage at all. First: A bit of Basic Information about our little Miata: !No body Damage! No Rust Top looks like new No rips/tears in interior No cracks on dash Touch Screen Am/FM/MP3/DVD Player (cool!) You'll see in the pictures above the radio a Air/Fuel Gauge, a Fuel Pressure Gauge and a Boost Gauge (from left to right) (See Supercharger below!) Power Windows Air conditioning (nice and cold!) 5 Speed Manual Transmission Body Kit (From Mazda OEM) A Whole Heck of Awesomeness! The vehicle has 45217 miles on it, but I had the engine rebuilt by an outfit that specializes in only Miatas in Sunnyvale, CA called Track-speed Engineering: I did this to ensure that the addition of the supercharger would never be a problem, the engine was wroking just right. Here is What They Did: Rebuilt Head with Super tech valves, Springs, and Valve Seals Port Matched Head Super tech Forged Pistons with 8.5:1 Compression for Forced Induction (Bored .030 Over) Eagle H-Beam Forged Rods Weisco XX rings ACL Race Bearings New Street/Strip Oil Pump New Water Pump New Gates Racing timing Belt/Pulleys/Tensioner All New Seals/Gaskets Threw on a Racing Beat Header for good measure! The Engine has exactly 233.6 Documented miles Then I put on the beast! MOSS Motors MP62 Supercharger Kit For anyone who does not know, the MP62 is the largest supercharger available for the Miata. I set i up with a modest pulley size to put out about 7 PSI according to the boost gauge. With pulley changes, this is capable of pushing as much as 20 PSI Then To hold Down the Power: I added a Racing Clutch form 949 Racing: Again, Miata specialists. This can hold down plenty of juice. So what's the catch? There isn't one. I have truly loved this car for the last two years, it has been a labor of love for me to take this MX-5 from something good to a truly great little car. But it's time to move on to the next project. So, the bottom line, if you are looking for a reliable, incredibly fun and very reasonable sports car, this is it. Oh, PS, this is an adult owned car from start to finish. Also, the sponsor vinyl on the side is completely removable. if you don't like it, but who wouldn't right? I like to have a little fun with my ads, but without any reservations, this is an excellent car and a blast to drive! Good luck bidding! And take care of her! |

How long will the 'golden age' of performance last?
Sat, Mar 26 2016High-powered sports and luxury cars were everywhere at the New York Auto Show, prompting the obvious question for enthusiasts: How long will this golden age of performance last? Industry leaders have some time before regulations elevate the Corporate Average Fuel Economy level in 2025. Even then, they expect cars rippling with power to survive in some form. "Is it the end of an era," I don't think so," said Ola Kallenius, Daimler AG board member for Mercedes-Benz cars marketing and sales. "That performance element of individual mobility I don't think will ever go away." Kallenius, who oversaw the company's AMG division from 2010-2013, expects it to continue to grow. Last year, AMG sold a record 68,875 units around the world, an increase of 44.6 percent over 2014, with strong growth in the US, China, and Germany. Still, there's always the potential for gas to spike, and pending fuel economy regulations are looming. That could lead AMG to add electrification to its products, Kallenius said, pointing to the electric SLS as a test case. Chevy is also thinking ahead, said Al Oppenheiser, chief engineer of the Camaro. He wouldn't bite when asked about electrification for the Camaro (he did say "never say never"), but admitted in 2025 "it's going to be pretty tough to sell V8s." For now, things are rosy for muscle cars, and Chevy confidently showcased the 640-hp Camaro ZL1 in coupe and convertible form in New York. "I think that this is truly the golden age of performance," Oppenheiser said. It's hard to disagree. News & Analysis News: The 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF was a show-stopper in New York. Analysis: There was a palpable energy when this RF — for Retractable Fastback — was revealed the night before the show at a trendy off-site venue near the Hudson River. Even as a parade of SUVs and flashy luxury cars rolled out the rest of the week, the Miata remained a hot topic. The Retractable Fastback is really a clever targa top, with part of the roof stowing behind the seats, adding about 100 pounds compared to the standard convertible. It makes the car more practical and arguably more attractive. The RF continues Mazda's tradition of selling the Miata with a hardtop variant. The first and second generations offered a detachable one, and a power retractable hardtop (a $1,700 option) was available on third-gen models. Judging by its reception in New York, the RF could prove to be even more popular than its predecessors.
Mazda recalls 109k Tribute models for rust issue
Fri, 18 Apr 2014The Mazda Tribute is being hit with a similar recall as its platform-mate the Ford Escape underwent a few weeks ago. Mazda is recalling 109,000 Tributes from model years 2001 to 2004. On the trucks, the subframe can rust from road salt, potentially causing the lower control arm to detach. If this happens, a loss of steering control could occur.
Mazda is adding a reinforcement crossbrace for added strength on the affected models. The recall covers Tributes currently registered in or originally sold in 20 northern states and Washington, DC, where road salt is used.
The reinforcement braces aren't available yet to do the repair. Mazda will send a letter in May to owners of affected vehicles that will inform them of the problem, and a second letter telling them when the parts will be ready. Scroll down to read the full recall press release.
