Location:

Terre Haute, Indiana, United States

Terre Haute, Indiana, United States

 Rare opportunity 2005 Mazdaspeed Miata  Factory turbocharged. This model was made only in 2004 and 2005 roughly 1428 only made in 2005 before factory burned down which limited 2005 production.
Black Mica paint only made in 2005.  This is the Grand Touring model every option.  Cloth top, leather seats with red stitching, Bose stereo.  The Mazdapeed Miata was very special, approximately 40hp more than a regular miata, 6-speed,  special heavy duty drivetrain, special bilstein shocks, springs etc.  Racing Hart 17 inch wheels. 6 speed manual transmission.  I have owned this car for 5 years I bought it with 2,700 miles on it, now it has 8,952 miles, most of the miles are highway miles. Surely one of the lowest mileage cars and collector quality condition.
This car is bone stock, no mods ever which is very rare for these cars.  It has never been tracked, raced, or auto-crossed. Mazda engineered these cars to last but everyone wants to boost their performance.  This car has been babied by both owners. Always garaged, no winters ever. This car is in excellent condition no dents scratches, no paint work ever other than minor chip repairs, VIN stickers on every body panel.  Properly maintained, no issues.
I have the window sticker, both (2) remotes/keys, brochures, owners manuals, original unused floor mats and top boot. The unused space saver spare tire, jack and tire lug wrench are in the trunk.  Payment by winning bidder within 7 days by bank wire transfer only, no cash in person  I reserve the right to end the auction early as car is for sell locally.  Shipping to be at buyers expense local pickup welcomed.  The Bose stereo has a special (aux/mod)  i-pod mini stereo plug for your various personal music devices.  I just ran a clean 2 owner car fax on this vehicle which I will be happy to provide.  Please do not contact me asking for my bottom dollar price, look at the starting auction price, this car is worth the money to a collector like myself.  call with questions:   8onetwo 2fourzero97six6     Also, this is last year of the NB series Miata it has a larger trunk capacity but still has a spare tire/jack/tools so you can change a flat and get home when you are out touring.  The 2006 and newer miatas have no spare. You can easily fit 2 roll airline type suitcases in the roomy trunk and more for a weekend trip.  Thanks for looking, happy bidding.

Masamichi Kogai new Mazda president and CEO

Fri, 10 May 2013

There's some executive rearranging going on in the top suite at Mazda Motor Corporation in Japan, with current CEO Takashi Yamanouchi telling reporters there "I'd like to hand over the work to younger people" now that the company has returned to profitability. Yamanouchi became CEO on November 19, 2008 of an independent Mazda that had to fight for its future in the immediate aftermath of the global financial crisis. What followed was four years of losses before finally getting back to black last year.
Masamichi Kogai (pictured) will be appointed the new president and CEO on June 25, pending approval at the company's annual general shareholders' meeting. Kogai assisted Seita Kanai with the production-efficiency initiative that Mazda called Mono Tsukuri Innovation, which worked to give export-dependent Mazda the best chance at profitability in spite of a rising yen. Kogai, lately in charge of production and purchasing, has been with the company since 1977 and worked in areas from R&D to logistics.
Kanai, who headed the Mono Tsukuri effort and was among the leadership on Skyactiv, will be promoted from executive vice president to vice chairman. Akira Marumoto will become executive VP of Mazda and assistant to new president Kogai. Yamanouchi will remain Chairman of the Board. There's a short press release below to make it official.

Huet Brothers working on new Miata-based retro coupe

Wed, 14 May 2014

Does the name Huet ring a bell? The Dutch brothers started out doing classic car tours in Europe before they started designed and building their own retro sports cars. The first was called the Huet Brothers Special. It was based on an old Triumph TR6 and surfaced back in 2009. But a few years later they started showing designs for a new coupe that called for a straight-six engine under a long bonnet with a fastback roofline, and started taking orders. Over the past two and a half years we didn't see anything materialize out of the Huet Brothers' plans, but word out of the Netherlands has it that the design is back on the table.
According to the Autovisie section of Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, Tino and Paul Huet were planning on building their coupe on the base of the MX-5 Miata. But now that Mazda is preparing to launch an all-new model, the Huets have decided to wait until next year and build their dream car on the new Skyactiv roadster chassis.
Rather than trying to shoehorn in a bigger engine (or the subsequent diesel model that was set to follow), the Huets are reportedly prepared to stick with Mazda's four-pot, offering it in stock form and various states of upgraded tune.

Dealers think Mazda's new Mexico plant will increase Mazda3 sales by 20%

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

Mazda3 sales in the US were down about 15 percent last year to a total of 104,713 units. According to a report from Automotive News, though, the slowdown in sales has been due more to production constraints than demand.
Good news for Mazda dealers, then, that a new plant in Salamanca, Mexico has just come online. Tom Carey, chairman of Mazda's national dealer council, told AN, "We're going to be in good shape because of that Mexico inventory." If estimates prove accurate, sales of the Mazda3 will increase by about 20 percent when the new plant begins production this month.
If those lofty projections come to pass, Mazda will reportedly be on track to exceed 300,000 total sales in the US in 2014, which would represent the brand's highest figures since its 375,000-unit peak in 1994. The brand hopes to sell more than 400,000 vehicles in the US by 2016, and with well-received products like the latest 3 and Mazda6 sedan, such expectations seem quite possible.
