Get a jump on Spring! For sale is a 1992 Mazda Miata. The car is a 5-speed “A-package” with A/C , for those familiar with the option packages for that year, and features roll-up windows and manual door locks which I think adds to the appeal of a basic roadster. The color is the desirable and less common Mariner Blue (the majority of Miatas of this vintage are red). This rust-free Miata currently has 62k (~3000/year) miles on it - it has always been stored in a garage, never driven in the snow, and rarely driven in the rain. It has been completely stock since day one except for the style/roll bar which simply unbolts if the new owner wants to remove it (no interior panels were cut to install). The fenders, hood, doors, and trunk all have the original stickers that match the VIN. I (certified small engine mechanic) am the 2nd owner of this car, the first owner was a middle aged adult, and he had the car for 11 years. This is one of the cleanest NA's you will see on the road – especially in the Northeast. It runs like new, sounds great, and gets over 30 MPG. Top is intact, no rips, and the plastic rear window is also in excellent shape with no cracks and no yellowing. Interior is also in very good condition with no cracks in dash or other parts, no tears in the seats, and good carpet, etc. There are a couple of very minor dings and small scratches here and there on the body as would be expected on a car of this age. The passenger lower rocker has a small dent up from the bottom - looks like the prior owner ran over a small rock – and you have to specifically look to see it. Everything works on this car – plenty of tread on the tires, plenty of life in the brake pads. Even the original radio is in place and it works. Clutch slave cylinder recently replaced. Some service records available including the original sales receipt.

I have to make room for other cars/projects and the Miata has to go. This is a beautiful car and it won’t last long – if you are looking for an original Miata, here’s your chance.

Car is for sale locally by word-of-mouth (and other means) and the listing may be cancelled at any time. I can take more pics of anything you want to see when the weather improves (currently in the middle of a snowstorm). I'll add some interior pictures this weekend - I'm stuck inside and I figured I'd list the car while I have the chance.

Mazda's first profit in five years in sight due to weak yen

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

Automotive News reports Mazda is set to turn a profit for the first time in five years. The automaker is more dependent on exports from Japan than other automakers based in that country, and as a result, it has long suffered at the hands of a strong yen. But the currency has declined in value by some 16 percent over the past six months and Mazda's shares have tripled in value to their highest level since 2008. Contrast this situation to a year ago when Mazda printed 1.22 billion new shares to raise cash. The move was equivalent to 70 percent of the company's then-outstanding stock, and values tumbled to record lows as a result.
Now that the yen has fallen to a value of around 96 per dollar, Mazda operations in the US are more profitable and the company now projects it will earn around $279 million for the next fiscal year. Automotive News says a one yen change against the dollar can have a 9.1 percent impact on Mazda operating profit compared to 4.7 percent at Subaru parent Fuji Heavy Industries or 3.1 percent at Toyota. Those automakers better insulate themselves from currency fluctuations with overseas manufacturing facilities.

Feds investigating 2010-11 Mazda CX-9 CUVs over braking issues

Mon, 17 Feb 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating 62,000, 2010-2011 Mazda CX-9 models over brake problems. The government safety watchdog says it has received seven complaints of an observed loss of power braking power to stop the crossover, according to the The Detroit News.
The NHTSA complaints say that the problem causes a hard pedal, increased braking effort and reduced braking effectiveness. Some complaints allege that they hear a hissing noise during braking similar to the sound of air leaving the tires. No injuries or crashes have been reported.
"As always, we are fully cooperating with NHTSA on their investigation. We cannot comment further at this time," said Mazda spokesperson Tamara Mlynarczyk to The Detroit News.

These are the cars being discontinued for 2024 and beyond

Fri, Jun 21 2024

While we get new and updated car models every year, its inevitable that we'll need to say goodbye to some nameplates as well. This time around, it feels like we have confirmation or reports of an unusually large number of vehicles being discontinued in 2024 and the coming years.Â We shouldn't be surprised. A large number of automakers are approaching their various target dates for electrification of their fleets. As such, some beloved internal combustion cars are going away, sometimes with appropriate fanfare like special editions. Others are slinking away quietly, killed by slowing sales and changing consumer trends. Of course, the end of production doesn't necessarily mean permanent death. Some of these models could be resurrected in later years ... and probably as an EV. With that in mind, here are the vehicles that are being discontinued in 2024 and beyond. Â Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio andÂ Stelvio Quadrifoglio Alfa Romeo ended the production of its combustion-only Quadrifoglio models in April 2024 as the Italian automaker moves toward an electrified future. This isn't the end of the Quadrifoglio entirely, though, with Larry Dominique,Â Alfa Romeo senior vice president and head of North America, writing, "I look forward to presenting the next chapter in the four-leaf clover’s journey." Â Chevrolet Camaro GM is ending production of the Chevy Camaro after 2024, but is sending it off in style with a CollectorÂ’s Edition. WouldnÂ’t it be cool, though, if Chevy brought it back as an EV? Â Chevrolet Malibu Rumors of its demise have been around for a while, but now itÂ’s official. GM will end production of the Chevy Malibu in November of 2024. The assembly line in Kansas will be retooled to build the replacement for the Chevy Bolt. Â Dodge Durango The three-row Durango is slated to be replaced by the Stealth nameplate after 2024. The Durango name could make a comeback later, according to rumors, on a body-on frame SUV based on the Jeep WagoneerÂ’s platform. Â Ford Edge This is the last year for the Edge in the U.S., with the final unit rolling off the assembly line in April. On sale since 2007, the Edge topped 100,000 sales in all but three full years of production. Â Ford Escape Newly refreshed for the 2023 model year, FordÂ’s popular Escape compact SUV is reportedly taking its leave in 2025 in order to usher in Â—Â you guessed it Â—Â an EV in its place.
