Greenfield, Massachusetts, United States

I am the second owner. I purchased the car in 1987 in California. It was my daily driver until 2000. I gradually modified the car over 26 years I owned it.
Shocks were replace 3 times, I think it currently has KYBs in front and Koni in rear with heavy duty sway bars from racing beat and a shock tower bracket. Transmission was replaced in 1992 with a stock 5 speed from Mazda In 1997 I installed a 13B 4 port motor with a stage II Port and polish, Dynamic Balancing , rear graved oil ring, high volume oil Pump, electric cooling fan that is thermostatically controlled. I replaced this motor again with the same in 2005 and it has been running perfectly. Car has a light weight fly wheel that was balanced with the new motor and a Centerforce III clutch. Motor winds past 8000 RPM and is getting just under 200 HP. It sounds great at high RPM. It is running a Makuni Side draft Carburetor, headers that have been heat wrapped Replaced everything that could possibly be replaced over the years to make it run and look great. It is a great drivers car. New Head lights, new pedals, alarm system, Momo wheel and shift knob. New speakers, new battery, maintenance done this summer. The leather seats are starting to show some ware and the drivers seat has some surface cracks in the leather. The Air conditioning was disconnected in 2005. It had been running but since it has not been used in 7 years it might need work. It is all still hooked up except the pulley. The sound system Nakamichi TD1, top of the line for that error and it will play an IPod I now live in Colorado and the Car is currently in western Mass, in Greenfield, I am not completely sure or the exact milage as of the posting I am not able to look at the car, I know that it is close I purchased an 89 Porsche and after 26 years I am ready to let go of the Mazda |

2009-2013 Mazda6 door latch recall covers 161k cars
Mon, 30 Sep 2013Mazda is voluntarily recalling 161,400 Mazda6 cars due to door latch mounting screws that may loosen, which could cause a door to open while the vehicle is in motion, thereby increasing the risk of accident or injury. The recall covers 2009 through 2013 Mazda6 models manufactured between February 4, 2008 and August 24, 2012.
The recall is expected to begin by October 18, 2013. Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will provide repairs free of charge. Scroll down for the official recall notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Takata airbag recall spreads to China with 42k Mazda sedans
Mon, 07 Jul 2014The scope of the problem with the faulty airbag inflators from Takata continues to broaden and is now reaching China, as well. Mazda is recalling 42,732 Mazda6 units there, produced by its local joint venture partner China FAW Car Company, to replace the front passenger airbags. It comes as part of Mazda's recall of nearly 160,000 vehicles worldwide, including about 34,600 in the US, according to Reuters.
This is the same problem that caused seven automakers in the US to recall an estimated 2.1 million vehicles in late June. The airbag inflators can potentially explode instead of deploying the airbag, which hampers the bag's inflation. In some cases occupants are also hit by the metal shrapnel, which can cause further injuries. In the US, Mazda is repairing the 2003-2007 Mazda6 (pictured above), 2006-2007 Mazdaspeed6, 2004 MPV and 2004-2008 RX-8 originally sold in or currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii.
This is hardly the first instance of this issue. Since 2001, there have been 20 recalls tied to the exploding airbags supplied by Takata. The problem is possibly linked to the propellant in the inflators, but there's no conclusive evidence of that yet. Most of the automakers in the US limited the most recent recalls only to a few humid states because moisture potentially exacerbated the problem.
We go Unplugged to celebrate Mazda Miata Month
Tue, 29 Jul 2014Chances are good that you, loyal Autoblog reader, have long since chosen to follow us on Twitter and 'like' us on Facebook. (If you haven't, feel free to take a second and do so right now.) Anyway, if you're one of our social media posse, you might have already heard that we're smack dab in the middle of Miata Month. We've gotten Mazda to loan us a couple of MX-5 Miatas, allowing us to say a protracted, tear-filled goodbye to the current generation (NC) of the beloved roadster, just before it exits stage right and ushers in the next generation.
You'll see a few more Miata Month items here on Autoblog after we've said our final farewell, but we absolutely wanted to make sure we created some great video evidence of our month, as well. Right down below, then, in its unfiltered-audio splendor, is the Autoblog Unplugged version of the 2015 Mazda MX-5 Miata PRHT. Your author had a pretty great time wringing out the roadster for the creation of our short vid, and we really hope you dig listening along.
