I am reluctantly selling my 2011 Mazda MX-5 Special Edition PRHT. This car is in near mint condition, and the new owner will be getting $3,000 worth of aftermarket goodies. Kelley Blue Book value is $26,000.
I am the third owner of the car. The original owner drove it for a short while before trading it in for something bigger. The second owner sold it to me with 7,200 miles on it, and he sold it to buy a touring motorcycle. I have had the car since February '12 and the car now registers 11,800 miles and counting. I have driven a '93 Miata for the past 15 years, and I bought this car as a replacement. One thing led to another and I ended up restoring the '93, investing much more money than I had originally planned. After lots of agonizing, I have decided that it is not financially viable to keep both cars. This is my only reason for selling it. I will probably regret it.
This car is awesome. Only 750 special edition units were produced. It is fully loaded......Power Retractable Hard Top (PRHT), Premium Package (Bluetooth, Satellite Radio, Xenon Headlights, Key-less entry/start, Electronic Stability Control), Suspension Package (Bilstein Shocks, Limited Slip Differential, Sport Suspension), Leather Wrapped steering wheel/parking brake handle, Gray Leather seats, Gray door trim, Chrome air vents/instrument cluster surrounds. Sparkling Black Mica paint is gorgeous and sexy.
6-Speed manual transmission shifts smooth as silk. New Mobil 1 synthetic oil changed in last 200 miles. Bumper to bumper Mazda factory warranty through July 2014.
$3k extras include.......3M Clear Bra paint protection ($750), Ziebart window tinting ($250), Magnaflow sport exhaust ($500), Dynamat noise reducer under hood and in doors ($500), Michelin Primacy MXM4 tires ($700), Zunsport front grill cover ($160), Rho Plate license plate mount ($60), Craven Speed Stubby antenna ($30), DIY lumbar support ($40), Voodoo engraved gear shift knob ($60).
No dings or dents. The exterior paint is immaculate - protected by 3M Clear Bra and regular hand washes/waxes. Interior is flawless. Leather seats regularly cleaned and conditioned.

Mazda6 Skyactiv-D Racecar ready to bring diesel to Grand-Am
Tue, 15 Jan 2013It may not be quite as radical as some of the company's past rotary racers, but the new Mazda6 Skyactiv-D racecar does have a notable powertrain underhood: the automaker's brand-new clean diesel four-cylinder engine.
Three of these new diesel-powered Mazda6 racers will take to the track in the Grand-Am GX class of the upcoming 2013 Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 26, with five drivers on each team. The car you see above, number 70, is sponsored by Mazda's longtime motorsports partner, SpeedSource.
Check out our full gallery of high-res images live from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show above and feel free to read through the related press release from Mazda 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.
Watch a high-speed chase from a motorcycle-mounted officer's point of view
Sat, 13 Apr 2013Riding a motorcycle through high traffic can be a stressful experience. And we don't even want to imagine what it's like to have to actually pursue someone on a motorcycle. Fortunately, we don't have to. Officer Troy Gurley of the Florence, Alabama police force recently attempted to stop a vehicle for traffic violations. The driver, 24-year-old Justin Sanders, figured he could use his Mazda3 to outrun the bike cop. Turns out, not so much.
Gurley pursued Sanders for nearly five minutes as the Mazda driver ran stop signs, swerved through traffic and raced through residential neighborhoods, but the perpetrator couldn't shake the tenacious and experienced rider. Other units soon joined the pursuit, and Sanders thought it best to leave the protection of his car to attempt to flee on foot. From there, it didn't take officers long to apprehend him. You can watch the video below for yourself.
