Up for grabs is "Nadine" the LS-1 powered Miata. This car has been seen in the movie "Fireball Run; Northern Exposure" as well as the Feb '14 issue of Car Craft.
This car has been constructed with the complete Boss Frog catalog in it. This was the development mule for BF's 8.8" Cobra IRS diff mount. It sports a '99 Vette LS-1, an '02 F-body t-56 trans, and the '04 Cobra 3.73 posi rear. It shifts butter smooth with a shortened B&M shifter through the uncut stock floor. The Boss Frog kit allows the engine and trans to fit the car WITHOUT the need to extensively modify the trans tunnel as most other kits require. Handling is still Miata friendly and the ride is supple with a combination of Mazdaspeed springs on modified shocks. The rear sway bar was removed and the front was replaced with a Flyin' Miata hollow bar, bar reinforcements, and adjustable end links. Unlike most swaps, this car carries the Mazda PS pump and lines rather than cobble hoses to a GM pump. This was done to ensure that pressures and flow rates would not compromise other steering components. Also, should the need arise, replacement parts are inexpensive, easy to find, and fit without modification. Every system of the car has been upgraded from the chassis (floor supports/door bars/roll bar/engine bay stiffener/strut brace) to the cooling system (3" thick all aluminum double pass rad) to the fuel system (Walbro 225lph pump and 1/2" braided lines front to rear) to the brakes (4 piston Wilwood calipers on 11" rotors) all with the purpose of making sure the car could handle the added power safely. A full build history of pictures is on CD and will be included with the sale. Constructed with the best parts available including names like Griffin, Painless, Simpson Design, Boss Frog, B&M, Wilwood, and many more. Better than 8k trouble free miles since completion.
Turnkey cars of this type are selling at a starting price of $42,000 PLUS your Miata with a 12 week waiting period for construction..... "Nadine" has a reputation, history, and is ready to drive today! Stickers may be easily removed and extra original paint is included for future use.

Mazda6 Coupe coming along with more Mazdaspeed models?
Thu, 30 Oct 2014The predecessor to the Mazda6, the Mazda 626, was sold in a multitude of body styles across the globe. It could, of course, be had as a sedan, but a two-door coupe, known stateside as the MX-6, was also available on the same platform. Now, a new report from Motor Trend claims that a two-door version of the modern Mazda6 could be on the way.
This would be remarkable for a number of reasons, as automakers have been abandoning this type of non-luxury coupe for decades. A class that counted entries from Toyota, Nissan, Chevrolet, Dodge and Chrysler is now occupied solely by Honda with its Accord Coupe.
Ignoring that, though, MT claims we'll see a two-door Mazda6 in the second half of 2016. When that new variant arrives, it will be with an even more dramatic version of the sedan's Kodo design language. Mazda could rely even more heavily on styling inspiration of the Shinari Concept, which already informs the design of the current 6 sedan, when the two-door model arrives.
Mazda3 officially unveiled
Wed, 26 Jun 2013Mazda has officially pulled the sheets off of its 2014 Mazda3. The all-new compact boasts a wheelbase that's a full 2.4 inches longer than the outgoing model, yet the hatchback is a nearly two inches shorter from stem to stern. The machine is also lower and wider than before, which should give occupants plenty of space indoors. The driver gets treated to a new human-machine interface that features a new Active Driving Display for information like vehicle speed and navigation instructions conveniently in the line of sight. Likewise, the vehicle's infotainment system has received a complete rebuild.
Outside, the new Mazda3 makes full use of the company's KODO design language, and to our eyes, the result is one of the most attractive entries in the segment. Jump under the hood, and buyers can expect to find a Skyactiv-G 2.0-liter gasoline engine with 155 horsepower and 150 pound-feet of torque, though no fuel economy estimates are available. For those looking for a bit more thrust, Mazda also offers a 2.5-liter Skyactiv-G gasoline mill with 184 hp and 185 lb-ft of torque. So far there's no word on the diesel engine available to our friends in Europe.
Both engines can be mated to either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic and feature the automaker's i-ELOOP brake energy regeneration systems. The recaptured energy is stored in a capacitor and used to power the vehicle's various electrical systems.
Mazda replaces owner's crashed 2016 Miata with brand new car
Fri, Jul 24 2015The first shipment of 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miatas are finally here. Imagine the jubilant sensation of being among the 1,000 people to pick up the limited Launch Edition, only to feel eviscerated when the new roadster crashes hardly a mile away from the dealer. While it must be an absolutely horrendous experience, Mazda North American Operations is making things right for one forlorn couple. In what was surely among the first recorded crashes of the 2016 Miata in the US, a husband and wife recently went to pick up their new Launch Edition, but they were rear-ended almost as soon as they left the dealer. According to Jalopnik, the hit also caused the roadster to slam into the car in front and might have bent the frame. To make a bad situation even worse, the wife also needed to be taken to the hospital to be checked out. Mazda is coming to the couple's aid with a generous gift. Knowing that it's utterly unfair for the new owners not to enjoy some top-down driving while the summer lasts, the company is actually sending the pair another Launch Edition to replace their crashed example. According to a Facebook post by the dealer (below), the car should be available sometime next month. Hopefully, the couple can enjoy thousands of miles of roadster driving with this one. After hearing about one of our customers getting rear-ended just minutes after picking up their new Miata, Mazda is sending out a replacement next month! #LongLiveTheRoadster Posted by Tom Bush Mazda on Wednesday, July 22, 2015 Related Video:
