Get a jump on Spring! For sale is a 1992 Mazda Miata. The car is a 5-speed “A-package” with A/C , for those familiar with the option packages for that year, and features roll-up windows and manual door locks which I think adds to the appeal of a basic roadster. The color is the desirable and less common Mariner Blue (the majority of Miatas of this vintage are red). This rust-free Miata currently has 62k (~3000/year) miles on it - it has always been stored in a garage, never driven in the snow, and rarely driven in the rain. It has been completely stock since day one except for the style/roll bar which simply unbolts if the new owner wants to remove it (no interior panels were cut to install). The fenders, hood, doors, and trunk all have the original stickers that match the VIN. I (certified small engine mechanic) am the 2nd owner of this car, the first owner was a middle aged adult, and he had the car for 11 years. This is one of the cleanest NA's you will see on the road – especially in the Northeast. It runs like new, sounds great, and gets over 30 MPG. Top is intact, no rips, and the plastic rear window is also in excellent shape with no cracks and no yellowing. Interior is also in very good condition with no cracks in dash or other parts, no tears in the seats, and good carpet, etc. There are a couple of very minor dings and small scratches here and there on the body as would be expected on a car of this age. The passenger lower rocker has a small dent up from the bottom - looks like the prior owner ran over a small rock – and you have to specifically look to see it. Everything works on this car – plenty of tread on the tires, plenty of life in the brake pads. Even the original radio is in place and it works. Clutch slave cylinder recently replaced. Some service records available including the original sales receipt.

I have to make room for other cars/projects and the Miata has to go. This is a beautiful car and it won’t last long – if you are looking for an original Miata, here’s your chance.

Car is for sale locally by word-of-mouth (and other means) and the listing may be cancelled at any time. I can take more pics of anything you want to see when the weather improves (currently in the middle of a snowstorm). I'll add some interior pictures this weekend - I'm stuck inside and I figured I'd list the car while I have the chance.

Lexus, Mazda win KBB 5-Year Cost To Own Awards

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

We focus a lot on what new cars are like to drive, but it's difficult on a one-week loan to really get a sense of what a car is like to live with. Sure, we try to recreate that sense with our long-term vehicles, but even after a year, it's impossible to know fully learn about a car, particularly in terms of reliability and cost of repairs. For 2014 model year vehicles, Kelley Blue Book has put together a list of the most affordable vehicles over a five-year period.
At the tippy top of the list are Mazda and Lexus, with the Zoom-Zoom automaker winning the award for best non-luxury brand. Lexus, meanwhile, was the most affordable luxury marque over a five-year period. It's interesting to note, though, that not a single Mazda won its segment in this year's awards.
General Motors did quite well, taking eight segments, including both the subcompact and plug-in segments, with the gas-powered Chevrolet Spark and Spark EV. The Chevy Camaro SS and ZL1 took the high-performance car award. Toyota was well represented, with five winners split between the main brand (Corolla, Prius C and Tacoma) and Lexus (LS and RX).

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Mazda3 successor due in dealers this fall

Sat, 23 Mar 2013

Following exciting new models like the 2013 CX-5 and 2014 Mazda6, Mazda is getting ready to introduce the next generation of its high-volume compact, the Mazda3. After talking to several of Mazda's dealers, Automotive News is reporting that the automaker is planning to introduce its new compact this fall, which is earlier than what was originally reported.
Aside from what we've seen in recent spy shots and what appeared to be a full-scale design mockup back in October, there is little information about the third-generation 3, but we can see that the car will get plenty of cues from Mazda's stylish Kodo design language, and we expect even more technologies from the company's SkyActiv efficiency program to come to bear. AN says that Mazda is hoping to top 300,000 sales this year in the US, and the sooner Mazda can replace the current aging 3, the better chances it has at reaching that goal.
