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.

2015 Mazda2 spotted in Japanese magazine

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

The styling changes at Mazda are proceeding at a fairly quick tempo. The CX-5 was unveiled, followed by a refreshed CX-9, the excellent Mazda6, and most recently a new Mazda3. This all happened over the course of less than two years, which in the auto industry is like a long week.
Now the Mazda2 is getting its revamp. Thanks to a magazine scan from Japan, we now have our first look at the new sub-compact, called the Demio, in its home market. Mazda's familial front end has been fitted, and it doesn't look quite as suited to the smaller car. Lacking the long-hood look of the Mazda3 and Mazda6, the new styling looks overly rounded, almost bulbous from our angle. It's still attractive, but the shape is kind of off-putting compared to the chiseled faces of the 2's big brothers. We'll concede that the folded magazine page may have something to do with it, however.
The next-generation 2 should adhere to Mazda's Skyactiv philosophy, which means we can expect a highly efficient four-cylinder engine, although it's impossible to say if Mazda will do away with its smallest offering's one-engine strategy. Considering the Mazda2 will be riding on a shortened version of the CX-5's platform, we'd expect some degree of mechanical parts sharing, regardless of how much the larger platform needs trimmed. Perhaps a detuned version of the 2.0-liter, Skyactiv four-cylinder could be under the 2's hood?

Will the new Mazda Miata be available with multiple engines?

Mon, 01 Sep 2014

At this point, the countdown until the launch of the all-new, fourth-generation 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata can be measured in hours until its September 3 unveiling as easily as it can in days. With the debut of such a highly anticipated model so close, the rumors about the new sports car are starting to boil over.
We recently heard that the new Miata would likely get a 2.0-liter Skyactiv four-cylinder with a six-speed manual, plus a decent drop in weight compared to the current gen. There's even the rumored possibility of a fastback coupe version sometime in the future.
Now, Australia's GoAuto is adding another dollop of speculation into the mix with the claim that there could be "potentially more engine options," according to Mazda Australia managing director Martin Benders to the website. The more potent option would still be the 2.0-liter Skyactiv with a power bump from its current 167 hp to closer to 200 ponies. The other possible powerplant option would be a 1.5-liter, naturally aspirated four-cylinder taken from the upcoming Mazda2 replacement. This version would also ditch some of the MX-5's more premium features to cut the weight and the price slightly.

Five automakers now being investigated by NHTSA for airbag woes

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

It appears that Toyota's renotification to owners of recalled vehicles from last year is just the tip of the iceberg for what could potentially be a much larger industry-wide recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation investigation into roughly 1.1 million vehicles from Chrysler, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Toyota and parts supplier Takata regarding faulty airbag inflators in several models.
NHTSA has received six reports - three directly, two from Takata and one from Toyota - of vehicles with ruptured airbag inflators from 2002-2006, which resulted in three injuries. So far, all six incidents have occurred in high humidity areas like Florida and Puerto Rico. According to Toyota's latest recall announcement, the inflators may have an improper propellant that could cause it to rupture in a crash and the bag to deploy abnormally.
This new investigation follows a previous recall from April 2013 of about 3.4 million vehicles worldwide for the airbag inflators from Takata. As Autoblog reported, Toyota jumpstarted the new situation when it found that the original list of serial numbers for the faulty part was incomplete and discovered more cars in need of replacement. Honda and Nissan told us that they were investigating whether further models would need called in again as well. Mazda told Autoblog: "Regarding the current Takata situation, we're working closely with NHTSA and investigating the situation, but nothing else to report at this time." Chrysler Group responded to us with the statement: "Chrysler Group engineers are conducting the appropriate analysis. The Company will cooperate fully with the National Highway Traffic Administration."
