You are bidding on a used 1996 Mazda Miata MX-5 convertible with approximately 84,000 miles on the odometer. This car is in great running condition and a blast to drive with or without the top down. I am the third non smoking adult owner of this Miata and while in my possession has been garage kept and not driven in winter. Here is a list of the features and options:
Mechanically the car runs great with the exception of a small valve cover leak I have been meaning to fix but have not. The engine pulls you just enough to make you smile when approaching red line. Shifting is effortless with a quick flick of the wrist. The clutch, brakes, and fluids are all in great shape. The tires are at about 70-80% and should last a few years depending on how you drive. A few years ago I had the rear main seal replaced along with all the seals in the transmission. Wheels do not have any major gouging or cracks however they could use a paint job. As I mentioned the hard top has been repainted but you really have to look hard at the window gasket to tell. The car has typical dings, scratches, and chips for a car this age. Unfortunately the rocker panels are rusted and bubbling in some spots as you can see in the pictures. The rust is contained to behind the front tires and in front of the rear tires along the black painted rocker panel. The rest of the paint shines up nicely with a little wax. Windows are clear and the interior cloth seats have no rips or tears. This car is a BLAST to drive and just fast enough to get you in trouble if you let it. This action is for local pick up only in the western suburbs of Chicago. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. If you leave a phone number I will call back after working hours. Please take a look at my 100% positive feed back I have always received. I have sold 2 cars previously on E-Bay and have always had positive feedback. You can bid with confidence. Apon winning the auction a $500 deposit to my PayPal account within 3 days is required. The remainder of the balance is due in cash and must be completed within 10 days of auction ending. Good luck bidding and thanks for your interest in my auction. |

Mazda recalls 109k Tribute models for rust issue
Fri, 18 Apr 2014The Mazda Tribute is being hit with a similar recall as its platform-mate the Ford Escape underwent a few weeks ago. Mazda is recalling 109,000 Tributes from model years 2001 to 2004. On the trucks, the subframe can rust from road salt, potentially causing the lower control arm to detach. If this happens, a loss of steering control could occur.
Mazda is adding a reinforcement crossbrace for added strength on the affected models. The recall covers Tributes currently registered in or originally sold in 20 northern states and Washington, DC, where road salt is used.
The reinforcement braces aren't available yet to do the repair. Mazda will send a letter in May to owners of affected vehicles that will inform them of the problem, and a second letter telling them when the parts will be ready. Scroll down to read the full recall press release.
2014 Mazda6 recalled due to fuel overfill fire risk
Fri, 02 May 2014Mazda is recalling 19,000 Mazda6 sedans from model year 2014, over concerns that the fuel tanks can be filled up too much. What is it with Mazda and fuel tanks?
The big concern is, obviously, spillage when filling up. There's also a risk that a radical temperature swing could cause the fuel volume to expand, causing a full tank to spill over without the driver knowing about it. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, if the fuel spills over, it could end up in something called the charcoal canister, which helps with the car's emissions. If it fills up the canister, it could leak out onto the road. None of this is really desirable.
The affected vehicles were all built between October 25, 2012 and May 9, 2013. It's unclear if there have been any fires due to this problem. Dealers should have been notified by now, while owners should begin receiving official recall notifications very soon.
Mazda3 successor due in dealers this fall
Sat, 23 Mar 2013Following exciting new models like the 2013 CX-5 and 2014 Mazda6, Mazda is getting ready to introduce the next generation of its high-volume compact, the Mazda3. After talking to several of Mazda's dealers, Automotive News is reporting that the automaker is planning to introduce its new compact this fall, which is earlier than what was originally reported.
Aside from what we've seen in recent spy shots and what appeared to be a full-scale design mockup back in October, there is little information about the third-generation 3, but we can see that the car will get plenty of cues from Mazda's stylish Kodo design language, and we expect even more technologies from the company's SkyActiv efficiency program to come to bear. AN says that Mazda is hoping to top 300,000 sales this year in the US, and the sooner Mazda can replace the current aging 3, the better chances it has at reaching that goal.
