WE BOUGHT THIS GREAT LITTLE CONVERTIBLE NEW IN 1992. WE HAVE AROUND 55000 MILES ON THE SPEEDOMETER AND ENJOYED THE CAR IMMENSLY. BUT WE NOW ARE OLD HAS BEENS, AND IT IS TIME TO SELL THIS WONDERFUL VEHICLE TO A YOUNGER PERSON WHO CAN GET THE FULL ENJOYMENT OUT OF ITS ROUSING PERFORMANCE. THE STICK SHIFT IS A JOY TO DRIVE AND THAT IS ABOUT ALL WE EVER USED IT FOR. THAT IS SHORT DRIVES INTO THE SUMMER SUN AND IT WAS ALWAYS STORED AWAY FOR THE MEAN WINTER WEATHER OF NORTH OHIO. THIS AUTOMOBILE CAN BE A HAZZARD TO DRIVE IN SNOWY AND ICY WEATHER.
YES, IT DOES NEED SOME WORK DONE ON IT TO BRING IT UP TO ITS BEST. AS WE AGED WE TENDED TO LET THINGS GO AND SO THE AUTOMOBILE AS IT SITS IN OUR DRIVEWAY TODAY IS IN NEED OF THE FOLLOWING:
A NEW TOP.
A PAINT JOB
A RADIO REPAIR
WINDOWS THAT ARE ACTIVATED BY PUULING ON A ROPE AND CLOSED BY SIMPLY PUSHING DOWN ON THE WINDOW.
THE ONLY DAMAGE EVER DONE TO THIS CAR WAS A SLIGHT RAMMING FROM A VEHICLE IN THE REAR AND I REPAIRED THIS TO MY SATISFACTION AND POCKETED THE INSURANCE.
THE LAST REPAIR, WHICH I DID MYSELF, WAS REPLACE THE CLUTCH WHICH GAVE OUT A YEAR OR SO AGO.
THE RADIO HAS BEEN REMOVED AS IT BECAME VERY QUESTIONABLE AS TO ITS PERFORMANCE AS THE CAR GREW OLDER. i HAVE THE RADIO IN A BOX IN MY WORKSHOP AND I WOULD THINK IT FIXABLE.
THE ONLY PROBLEM BESIDE THE CLUTCH REPLACEMENT, WAS A SPARK PLUG WIRE PROBLEM WHICH I REPAIRED MYSELF.
I BELIEVE THE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT WORKING, BUT WOULD GUESS THAT A REFILL OF REFRIGERANT WOULD SOLVE THAT PROBLEM?
THIS HAS BEEN A GREAT VEHICLE AND I FEEL THAT IT HAS ONLY BEEN NOW BROKEN IN PROPERLY, AND WILL GIVE MANY YEARS OF RELIABLE SERVICE.
I MIGHT ADD THAT THE RUBBER IS IN NEW CONDITION AND THE BRAKE PADS REPLACED ONE TIME.

2014 Mazda6: Introduction
Thu, 30 May 2013An Extended Stay With The Sexy Six
The new-for-2014 Mazda6 sedan is more than just a pretty face. For Mazda, it marks the company's best effort yet at competing in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment, all the while staying true to the brand's core value of offering high levels of driver involvement above all. We certainly came away impressed after our first drive of the sleek Six in France last fall, and we knew right from the start that this would be a car we'd want to spend a lot of time with back here at home.
So with that in mind, the folks at Mazda graciously agreed to loan us the fully loaded Soul Red tester you see here for a one-year stay in the Autoblog long-term garage. Because of how important this car is to the segment, and to Mazda as a brand, we know there's going to be a lot to talk about it over the next 12 months. Right now, though, allow us to introduce you to the newest member of our long-term family.
Takashi Yamanouchi to retire as Mazda chairman
Mon, 12 May 2014Takashi Yamanouchi has been with Mazda for a long time. He signed on with the Japanese automaker in April 1967 - one month after graduating from Keio University - and rose through the ranks over the years. By 1996 he was named to the company's board of directors. In 2008 he was named president and CEO, an office he held until 2013, after which he handed over the day-to-day reins to Masamichi Kogai and took up the seat at the head of the board room to serve as the company's chairman. But now, after 47 years working for Mazda, Yamanouchi-san is retiring at the age of 69.
During his tenure as CEO and then as chairman, Yamanouchi was credited with growing Mazda's business despite unfavorable fluctuations in exchange rates, opening the company's first plant in Mexico, and spearheading the development of Mazda's Skyactiv technologies and Kodo design language.
In his place, current vice chairman Seita Kanai will take over as chairman. The changing of the guard will take place after the annual shareholders' meeting on June 24.
Will Mazda show the next Miata's chassis in NY?
Fri, 21 Mar 2014Mazda is being very sneaky about what it is bringing to the New York Auto Show, and it might have something to do with the next-generation MX-5 Miata. Australian website Motoring.com.au spoke to a company insider who told it that at least the chassis for the roadster would debut in Manhattan. The rumor goes that the show will act as the kickoff for the PR campaign for the new model.
We contacted Mazda USA PR Director Jeremy Barnes to find out more, and he would neither confirm nor deny the rumor. "Just because you read it on the Internet doesn't mean you should repeat it," he said to Autoblog. That's not exactly an outright, No.
Supporting evidence that the new drop top might be appearing in the Big Apple includes Mazda's plan to celebrate the model's 25th anniversary at the show. It's bringing 15 cars from the first three generations to display. "It will be absolutely worth attending the New York Auto Show if you're a Miata fan," Barnes said. That at least hints that there might be something he's not telling us. Otherwise it's a lot of sizzle without much steak.
