Up for auction is this ONE OWNER, Rare, 2004 Mazda Miata Turbo (MX5.) Rare Turbo charged version, 6-speed manual!!!!! The Miata belongs to a very good friend, who purchased it brand new, back in 2004. He is a filming director, doing commercials and trailers. The Miata was becoming too small for him carrying recording equipment etc every single day. He wasn't really ready to part with it just yet, but when I let him borrow a Mercedes, he instantly became hooked. Along with the Miata he handed me a thick folder containing service and repair records. It's way too many for me to go through and list here. What I can tell you is, we at Autobahn Auto started servicing the Miata when we first met 3 years ago. Since then we performed a few repairs such as new Alternator, Battery, a new fog light and lots of oil changes. All previous service and repairs had been done by Mazda dealerships and other places he traveled to film. I was asked to use my expertise and sell the Miata for him, so any questions you may have just ask me.
To get the Miata sales ready we had the car detailed. We also refurbished the headlights by using a technique only we do at Autobahn Auto. So no auto-parts store kits were used to redo the headlights. They were water sanded and clear coated with several layers. Then they were buffed. They will look like new 2 years ++++.
The Miata has a few minor flaws which I will explain to the best of my knowledge. Some years ago the left side was keyed and needed to be repainted. It was done by a Mazda dealership and most of the paint matches except the trunk lid at the time had suffered some fading due to age. I tried my best showing this in the photos, but it's really not too noticeable until you're standing two feet away. The other issue is the driver seat needs to upholstery. The bottom cushion is heavily cracked as you can see in the photo. That's the reason I left the seat cover on that seat. The check engine light is on and the code is the Oxygen sensor.

Otherwise the Miata looks great and she runs and drives AWESOME!. The AC is freezing cold and the heat will run you out of the car. Power door locks work as they should and so are all the other controls. The vinyl top was replaced just 2 years ago!!    




 


If I get a reasonable offer before the auction ends I will cancel all bids and sell the car. It is also for sale on our lot. If this is something you're interested in, don't wait for the auction because many of my listed cars sell before the actual auction ends!!!

Live pics of 2014 Mazda3 from NYC, sedan on its way

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

Here it is, ladies and gentlemen, straight from the memory cards of our own cameras. As you can see, the only version of the 2014 Mazda3 that the automaker is showing off at the moment is the hatchback, but we've gotten confirmation from Mazda that the sedan version will be shown sometime within the next five weeks.
So far, Mazda isn't commenting on whether or not we can expect a higher-performance Mazdaspeed3 version of the car, but we've got our fingers crossed. In any case, we're quite drawn to the appearance of this new hatchback from Mazda, with its flowing lines and character creases setting it apart from the rest of the compact segment in which it competes.
We also appreciate the sound engineering that went into the new 3. Despite boasting a wheelbase that's longer than the car it replaces, we're pleased to see that Mazda has kept its exterior size in check - it's actually shorter overall than the last-gen model - while also reducing weight by about 200 pounds. That's bound to be good for the new 3's dynamic properties.

Mazda sells 10 millionth car in the US, does something special

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

When Lauren Carter of Glen Ellyn, IL was in the market for her first car, she went for a Mazda3. Not a bad choice, but not necessarily remarkable on the surface. After all, Mazda sold 123,361 of them here last year alone. What she didn't know was that the car she bought was the 10 millionth Mazda had sold in the US over the course of its 43-year history here, since selling its first rotary-powered R100 here in 1970.
Rather than let the occasion pass with nothing more than a press release (like the one below), Mazda gave Lauren a brand-new 2014 Mazda3 to replace the 2013 model she had bought. Which is a nice gesture, of course, but also enables Mazda to hold on to the landmark 10,000,000th car in its heritage collection.

Mazda names new North American chief

Tue, Dec 22 2015

Mazda has announced today the appointment of a new president and CEO of its North American operations. Jim O'Sullivan, who has been running the office for 13 years, is now leaving the company. In his place the head office has appointed veteran manager Masahiro Moro, and as you can see, he could not be more thrilled with the appointment. A 55-year-old native of Kyoto, Moro has been with Mazda since 1983. One of the company's managing executive officers, Moro currently heads up its global sales and marketing division. He also previously served as vice president of marketing and of product planning for Mazda Motor Europe, and as director of the company's Australian operations. He'll now be relocating with his wife and family to Southern California to take over the North American division based out of Irvine, effective January 1. His predecessor Jim O'Sullivan has held the office since 2003, also ranked as one of the Japanese automaker's managing executive officers. The Detroit native previously worked at Ford, where he started his career in 1976. "I have been very lucky that the car business has afforded me so many incredible experiences, and taught me so much. However, now is the right time for me to retire from Mazda," said the 40-year industry veteran of his departure from the company in the statement below. "I don't know how the next chapter in my life will read, but it's time for me to spend time with my wonderful wife, my children and my grandchildren. I've travelled the world for nearly 40 years, who knows what the future holds?"
