1999 Mazda Miata Mx-5 Built Supercharged Fast! No Reserve on 2040-cars
Rapid City, South Dakota, United States
Oh, The Things we do for Love! I bought this little beauty 2 years ago. It had been hit in the rear end, all she needed was a bumper cover and a trunk deck. No suspension damage at all. First: A bit of Basic Information about our little Miata: !No body Damage! No Rust Top looks like new No rips/tears in interior No cracks on dash Touch Screen Am/FM/MP3/DVD Player (cool!) You'll see in the pictures above the radio a Air/Fuel Gauge, a Fuel Pressure Gauge and a Boost Gauge (from left to right) (See Supercharger below!) Power Windows Air conditioning (nice and cold!) 5 Speed Manual Transmission Body Kit (From Mazda OEM) A Whole Heck of Awesomeness! The vehicle has 45217 miles on it, but I had the engine rebuilt by an outfit that specializes in only Miatas in Sunnyvale, CA called Track-speed Engineering: I did this to ensure that the addition of the supercharger would never be a problem, the engine was wroking just right. Here is What They Did: Rebuilt Head with Super tech valves, Springs, and Valve Seals Port Matched Head Super tech Forged Pistons with 8.5:1 Compression for Forced Induction (Bored .030 Over) Eagle H-Beam Forged Rods Weisco XX rings ACL Race Bearings New Street/Strip Oil Pump New Water Pump New Gates Racing timing Belt/Pulleys/Tensioner All New Seals/Gaskets Threw on a Racing Beat Header for good measure! The Engine has exactly 233.6 Documented miles Then I put on the beast! MOSS Motors MP62 Supercharger Kit For anyone who does not know, the MP62 is the largest supercharger available for the Miata. I set i up with a modest pulley size to put out about 7 PSI according to the boost gauge. With pulley changes, this is capable of pushing as much as 20 PSI Then To hold Down the Power: I added a Racing Clutch form 949 Racing: Again, Miata specialists. This can hold down plenty of juice. So what's the catch? There isn't one. I have truly loved this car for the last two years, it has been a labor of love for me to take this MX-5 from something good to a truly great little car. But it's time to move on to the next project. So, the bottom line, if you are looking for a reliable, incredibly fun and very reasonable sports car, this is it. Oh, PS, this is an adult owned car from start to finish. Also, the sponsor vinyl on the side is completely removable. if you don't like it, but who wouldn't right? I like to have a little fun with my ads, but without any reservations, this is an excellent car and a blast to drive! Good luck bidding! And take care of her! |

2015 Mazda2 spotted on the road
Tue, 15 Apr 2014When Mazda unveiled the Hazumi Concept at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, our excitement for the next Mazda2 increased considerably. The Hazumi looks to retain much of the driving character that makes the current 2 one of the very best cars in its segment while infusing it with more aggressive styling. Of course, when the 2 arrives, it won't look exactly like the Hazumi. That's why these spy photos are so important.
This is our very first look at the next-generation 2, and although the Hazumi influence might be difficult to discern, thanks to the swirly camo, it's still there. The grille shape and the headlights are very similar in shape to the items shown on the concept, while the camouflage disguises the shape of the greenhouse, which looks somewhat like the Hazumi.
What we can't see, though, is under the hood. That's where our spies come in, reporting that a pair of 1.5-liter SkyActiv engines will see action in the tossable 2. The former, which we'll almost certainly see in the US, is a gas-powered mill found in the Euro-spec Mazda3. In the larger 3, it produces 99 horsepower and 111 pound-feet of torque, which is broadly similar to what the current 2's 1.5-liter pumps out. The other engine, a 1.5-liter SkyActiv diesel, probably won't be making the trip, although we'll continue to hope.
Mazda Miata celebrates 25 years of rocking our worlds
Mon, 10 Feb 2014For its birthday it hasn't been profiled on 60 Minutes or been to Jay Leno's Garage, doesn't go on a retrospective tour of vintage racetracks or get a special Spyder Zagato edition. That doesn't mean we think any less of the Mazda MX-5 Miata, the roadster with a simplicity that was as enjoyable as it was barely believable when it arrived in 1989. A quarter of a century and three generations later, the Miata remains the go-to roadster when you want easy, balanced and economical thrills.
It grew from a 116-horsepower speedster with a five-speed manual transmission and a curb weight of 2,116 pounds, to a 167-hp go-kart with a five-speed manual coming in at 2,480 pounds (in Sport guise). Along the way it's picked up hundreds of awards, including 14 nods on Car and Driver's "10Best" list, its most recent eight-year streak coming to an end last year, the Guinness Book of World Records title as "Best-Selling Two-Seater Sports Car" and innumerable trophies as weekend racer extraordinaire.
We'll see the fourth generation at next year's Chicago Auto Show, and we're certain to hear more about its 25-year milestone this year. Until that happens, enjoy the images above and the gallery and press release below.
2015 Mazda3 shows its shape
Tue, 12 Feb 2013Mazda's new Kodo design language is set to quickly spread across the automaker's entire lineup, judging by these spy shots of the next-generation Mazda3 that show some very familiar styling cues. No matter, we're impressed with what Mazda has done on the CX-5 crossover and Mazda6 sedan in terms of design, and we're happy to see the C-segment hatchback ditching the smile-for-a-mile Nagare design.
It's unclear what sort of architecture is found below the new Mazda3 - our spy shooters suggest that the car could simply be using a heavily massaged version of the Ford C1 platform found under the current car. Our best guess is that it's actually a reworked version of the platform used in the CX-5 crossover, however, chocked full of weight-saving Skyactiv technologies. After all, the CX-5 plays in the compact CUV segment, and those vehicles are commonly based on C-segment platforms. And besides, there's probably some economic savings at work with the new chassis - both in terms of fuel efficiency and economies of scale. Still, no one is totally certain what lies under all that black-and-white paper at the moment.
The new Mazda3 is targeted to arrive for the 2015 model year, meaning we could see a final production car debut as early as this year. We expect the hatch you see here to debut along with a traditional four-door sedan, and unless we hear otherwise, we don't doubt that a Mazdaspeed version will be far behind.
