I'm selling my trusty 1991 Mazda Miata. I'm the original owner, bought it new in 1991, and the fact that it's lasted this long has amazed me. This has been my everyday city car in San Francisco for more than 20 years. For about 15 of those years this car was garaged. Since 2001 I've worked at home, so I've been putting about 7500 miles or less per year on it.
- It runs
- Starts reliably
- New (2yr) catalytic converter
- California car, no significant rust
- Smoke free
- Clearwater door speakers
- Tires have 10K or so left
- Clutch, water pump, timing belt are fine, replaced in the last 5 years.
- Newer rear brakes and rotors.
- Original spare in trunk
- Original radio works
- Gets about 26mpg
- Extensive service records
- Shop manual
- Clear title
- Significant oil leak.
- Recent steering fluid issue -- I assume there's a small leak, the fluid is low but not empty. This has been going on for about 2 weeks.
- Speedo cable broken 5 tanks ago. I've estimated the actual mileage at 189,500. I have another vehicle I've been driving the past few weeks.
- Body damage as visible in pictures.
- Convertible top zipper is failing. This top has a glass window. It's still sound, but it won't handle being opened and closed many more times. This will require a replacement top, unless you know how to repair the zipper, and I'm not aware that that's possible.
- Ripped driver's seat. Common in older Miatas.
- Shocks are dead and need to be replaced.
- Shift knob skirt is torn.
- Driver's side window seal is creeping up, needs to be re-seated.
- Radio works, but sometimes won't turn on, especially if it's been cold over night. After driving a while, it turns on.
- Air conditioning no longer blows cold.
- Appears to be a problem with the main cooling fan. Most of the time the car runs at normal temp (halfway between cold and hot on temp gauge). On very long uphills or in bumper to bumper traffic, it gets hot. It has never overheated. Turning on the AC runs the AC fan and cools the car.

Mazda6 diesel to race at Rolex 24, team and drivers announced
Fri, 04 Jan 2013Mazda is getting serious about showing off the Skyactiv-D turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine in the Mazda6. The automaker has just announced it will campaign three diesel Mazda6 racers in the Grand-Am GX class of the upcoming 2013 Rolex 24 at Daytona in a quest to walk away with the company's 24th class win. Mazda partnered with SpeedSource to develop the race version of the new sedan, with Japanese and American engineers lending a helping hand where needed. Meanwhile, Freedom Autosport and Visit Florida Racing/SpeedSource/Yellow Dragon Racing will helm teams of their own.
Each car will make use of a five-driver team for the 24-hour race on January 26. In the interim, you can check out the full press release below for more information as well as the full driver roster. Mazda says we can expect to see the No. 70 SpeedSource car under the lights at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show later this month, as well.
Top Gear recounts the fiery demise of the Mazda Furai
Mon, 02 Dec 2013This past September we reported on Top Gear's destruction of the Mazda Furai, one of the finest concept cars to ever grace an auto show stage. It turns out that the Furai, which was burned nearly beyond recognition at the hands of the British magazine, was actually destroyed back in 2008, and that the entire thing had been covered up for five long years.
Now, a few months after publishing that heart-wrenching composite of a half-baked Furai (shown above), the lads at TG have published their account of just what resulted in a priceless concept car being transformed into a smoking hulk on a Suffolk runway. Click over to read the full story about just what happened, along with pictures of the Furai before, during and after the inferno.
Mazda2 nets Japan Car of the Year, Cherokee first US model to ever crack top 10
Tue, 14 Oct 2014The 2015 Mazda2 is quite high up on our must-drive list. Yes, the teeny, tiny successor to the 100-horsepower five-door is worth getting excited over, largely because the previous generation was one of the absolute best smiles-per-dollar values on the market.
While we eagerly await for our opportunity to take to the 2's helm, our expectations of the new car have just been heightened thanks to its win in Japan's Car of the Year competition. Called "Demio" in the land of the rising sun, Japanese journalists handed out Mazda's second COTY award since the CX-5 took the title in 2012.
In more surprising news, the new Jeep Cherokee has made the list of 10 Best Cars in Japan. The Jeep's triumph marks the first time an American car has cracked the top ten, finishing eighth. It's not, however, the first Fiat Chrysler vehicle to snag the title, following in the footsteps of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta and Fiat Panda. Still, the fact that an American brand can make such impressive inroads into the traditionally tough-to-crack Japanese market is a seriously big deal.
