Hello and welcome to the auction for my Flawless 1996 supercharged Mazda Miata with only 20,884 original miles. I purchased the car 8.5 years ago with only 12,500 miles and have enjoyed the car very much. I'm the 3rd owner and purchased the car from a couple that was retiring and moving to Florida, the first owner passed away and left it to the 2nd owner. Back when I purchased the car it was bone stock so I decided to make a few tastefull modifications. The original paint holds a very high luster and is so bright that my camera detected blinks while taking pictures. The exterior has NO dings, dents or scratches and has always been stored in a climate controlled garage. The interior is very nice and shows only some fray marks on the drivers seat. Under the hood is extremely clean and is ready to show off at a moments notice. The under side of the car looks as good as the rest of it (in other words flawless). This reliable Miata runs, shifts and drives perfectly and is ready for any road trip you can dream up. Here is a list of what I have done to the car over the last 8.5 years.
Jackson Racing Supercharger
Chapperal Wheels 15x7 38mm off set
Falkon ziex tires 205/50-15
Drilled/ slotted rotors and painted calipers
Turn signal air intakes (perfect paint match)
Rear spoiler (perfect paint match)
Clear side marker lights, trunk light, and custom tail lights and fog lights
Custom exhaust (NOT LOUD just a little over stock)
Apex lowering spring (1" front, 1.5" rear) Still rides very nice
Pioneer head unit, headrest speakers, Polk door speakers, custom stealth subwoofer enclose with 8" Polk subs (I like my music to sound good)
Nose screen
Powder coated valve cover, outlet manifold, air box and few chrome accents under the hood
This flawless Miata has only been adult driven in nice weather from May-October and has always been well maintained and cared for. It has never seen a winter and is caught in the rain maybe 2-3 times a season This car has never been raced or beat on and has only seen one driver being ME in the last 8.5 years. The Jackson Racing Supercharger really wakes up this little roadster and pulls nice and smooth and shifts perfectly. Inside and out this car looks as if it was stored in a bubble and will be hard pressed to find another this clean that is still in it's stock form. In the end this is an amazing opportunity for those of you looking for a first generation Miata with very low miles in this condition. If you have any question or would like to see the car (weather permitting) please feel free to contact me via email or call Rob @ 860 559-4869. Please do not bid on the car unless you plan to purchase the car (it's that simple). If you are local payment will be in the form of cash, if you are shipping payment will be in the form of a certified bank check. Car and paperwork will not be released until payment is cleared by my bank. If you need shipping I will help in anyway I can but the cost is the buyers expense. Please enjoy the pictures and happy bidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mazda6 Skyactiv-D Racecar ready to bring diesel to Grand-Am
Tue, 15 Jan 2013It may not be quite as radical as some of the company's past rotary racers, but the new Mazda6 Skyactiv-D racecar does have a notable powertrain underhood: the automaker's brand-new clean diesel four-cylinder engine.
Three of these new diesel-powered Mazda6 racers will take to the track in the Grand-Am GX class of the upcoming 2013 Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 26, with five drivers on each team. The car you see above, number 70, is sponsored by Mazda's longtime motorsports partner, SpeedSource.
Check out our full gallery of high-res images live from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show above and feel free to read through the related press release from Mazda below.
Mazda goes on engineer hiring binge as recovery picks up speed
Mon, 10 Mar 2014Japan's larger automakers - companies like Toyota, Honda and Nissan - have tremendous engineering talent at their disposal. That's largely because, selling as many cars as they do, they've got more revenues to tap into. Logic might dictate, then, that smaller automakers like Mazda, which no longer has the deep pockets afforded to it by its former partnership with Ford, might have less of a budget and workforce for engineering. But Mazda has been raking in record profits, and it plans on cashing those revenues in by hiring a substantial new pool of engineers.
According to Automotive News, Mazda is preparing to hire as many as 185 new engineers over the next two years - almost four times as many as the 50 engineers it previously targeted. Many of those engineers will be put to work developing the second-generation, Skyactiv 2 technologies that are on the drawing board while the first round of Skyactiv features are still being rolled out.
The boost in recruitment is enabled by a positive fiscal year that ended last March, marking the first profits Mazda had logged in four years. Sources anticipate that the fiscal year culminating at the end of this month will mark the company's most profitable yet, netting over a billion dollars to eclipse the fiscal year that ended in 2008 when it recorded $872.5 million in profits.
Mazda3 Skyactiv-Hybrid and CNG Concept shown in Japan
Thu, 21 Nov 2013Mazda has received a tremendous amount of public and industry praise in the last few years, following up the successful introduction of its Skyactiv technology (powertrain and otherwise), with strong products like CX-5, Mazda6 and most recently, the Mazda3. At the Tokyo Motor Show, Mazda has taken yet another step forward with Skyactiv and the 3, showing the compact (called "Axela" in Japan) with an all-new compressed natural gas engine in the Skyactiv-CNG Concept.
The end result of the Skyactiv-Hybrid is fuel consumption estimated at something like 74 miles per gallon.
Mazda thinks that CNG-powered vehicles are due for an uptick in demand, and the company believes this new powertrain will add valuable breadth to the Mazda3 range. The CNG Concept is actually a duel-fuel vehicle, capable of running on either natural gas or gasoline. In fact, we're told that the high compression ratio (14:1) inherent in Skyactiv-technology gasoline engines makes conversion to CNG particularly simple.
