This is a super clean low mileage Arizona Car, which means no rust. This car looks and drives practically new.

I am a Master Mazda Mechanic by trade. I bought this car with a hydro-locked engine (from the second owner, who owned it less then a year) with the intent to replace the engine
and go threw the car to make sure it is ready to drive and well maintained. So that is exactly what I did. I installed a New (NOT Remanufactured) Mazda Crate Engine directly from Mazda. This was definitely not the cheapest way to go but definitely the best. The engine alone was almost $5,000. It does have a 12 month / 12,000 mile warranty (on the long block). I replaced the clutch, thermostat, spark plugs, all the gaskets and fluids, installed a newer intake manifold (because the other one had debris in it and I was not going to take a chance with it.) There is around 500 miles on the engine now. This think runs great, super smooth at idle. Best of all everything works! The a/c is cold, all the windows work, shifts great and smooth, seats work properly, etc. The only aftermarket item on this car is the Cold Air Intake, even the battery is a Mazda replacement (and still has some warranty left). Because of the Cold Air Intake, you have to be some-what careful when driving in the rain, which is why the engine was hydro-locked in the first place. There was no damage at all to the vehicle other then the engine. I have pictures of the original engine, #1 rod was broken and put a hole in the block. There is no traces of that damage now. I was planning on keeping this car for myself but other projects are waiting for my money. Now is your chance to own a hard-to-find Mazda. I will include a few links from the Mazda website for more info., also see the following for all of the specs. If you have any questions or would like more pictures please ask! Thank You and Happy Bidding!

Mazda Miata celebrates 25 years of rocking our worlds

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

For its birthday it hasn't been profiled on 60 Minutes or been to Jay Leno's Garage, doesn't go on a retrospective tour of vintage racetracks or get a special Spyder Zagato edition. That doesn't mean we think any less of the Mazda MX-5 Miata, the roadster with a simplicity that was as enjoyable as it was barely believable when it arrived in 1989. A quarter of a century and three generations later, the Miata remains the go-to roadster when you want easy, balanced and economical thrills.
It grew from a 116-horsepower speedster with a five-speed manual transmission and a curb weight of 2,116 pounds, to a 167-hp go-kart with a five-speed manual coming in at 2,480 pounds (in Sport guise). Along the way it's picked up hundreds of awards, including 14 nods on Car and Driver's "10Best" list, its most recent eight-year streak coming to an end last year, the Guinness Book of World Records title as "Best-Selling Two-Seater Sports Car" and innumerable trophies as weekend racer extraordinaire.
We'll see the fourth generation at next year's Chicago Auto Show, and we're certain to hear more about its 25-year milestone this year. Until that happens, enjoy the images above and the gallery and press release below.

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata firsthand impressions and notebook scribblings

Thu, 04 Sep 2014

In a temporarily repurposed airport hanger in Monterey, CA, the world caught its first glimpse of the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata tonight, and I was fortunate enough to attend in person along with my fellow auto media colleagues, Mazda execs, a couple hundred Miata devotees and, oddly, a fair number of Duran Duran fans. The klieg lights have dimmed, Simon Le Bon is no longer ringing in my ears, and I'm left to ponder what I've seen. I've scavenged my notes - and my Twitter feed - to give you some details and brief thoughts.
Fair Warning: I can't claim to be completely impartial (I own a second-generation NB and consider the Miata franchise to be one of but a few sacrosanct franchises in modern motoring), but I will share my honest first impressions of the new car, both good and bad.
Here are my notes:

Mazda hard at work on Skyactiv 2 engine technology

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

As Mazda continues the current rollout of its still-new Skyactiv technology, the automaker is already looking at improving its family of engines for even better fuel economy and emissions reductions. Automotive News reports that with stricter fuel economy and emissions regulations planned for 2020 and 2025 in Europe, Mazda will likely release engines with next-generation Skyactiv 2 technology by the end of this decade, and Skyactiv 3 units just five years later.
The latter is expected to focus on improved engine cooling and lessening energy losses, but the big news in AN's report is that the next-gen Skyactiv 2 engines will use Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition, or HCCI. This type of ignition is very similar to how a diesel engine operates (with high compression and using the compression stroke for fuel combustion rather than spark plugs), a method said to provide a cleaner and more efficient fuel burn - to the tune of a 30-percent improvement in fuel economy compared to current Skyactiv engines. Other automakers, including Hyundai, have already announced they are developing HCCI powerplants with similar technology and characteristics, so Mazda likely won't be a lone wolf here.
Equipped with HCCI technology, Mazda figures to be able to compete with larger automakers in terms of fuel economy and emissions without resorting to hybrid powertrains, continuously variable transmissions or automatics relying on more forward gears (eight or more) for optimal efficiency. Some of the challenges of HCCI, according to AN, include the need for better engine cooling, risk of misfire at high and low rpm and uneven engine performance based on fuel properties.
