Spokane, Washington, United States

REPO TIME AGAIN!!! BANK SAYS SELL THIS 1996 MAZDA MIATA MX5 WITH VERY LOW MILES. THIS CAR IS CLEAN INSIDE AND OUT!!! 5 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION, FULL LEATHER, SPEAKERS IN SEATS, AM/FM/CD PLAYER, 1.8L 16 VALVE ENGINE. ONLY 110,000 MILES ON THIS CAR, THERE IS A SMALL 1 INCH TEAR IN DRIVERS SEAT, RAG TOP IS IN GOOD CONDITION, TIRES DO HAVE SOME LIFE IN THEM STILL AT 65% TREAD, The 1996 Miata M-Edition was all about style. So the car comes with Starlight Blue Mica Paint, a tan leather interior, special stitching, and unique Enkei wheels. A point on the wheels: Other than the steel wheels of the base model, these are the heaviest ever fitted to a Miata. And look at that body roll! You forget how a stock one handles. It's ridiculous. The M Edition series was developed by Mazda USA’s marketing department in 1994.  It was produced for those interested in a special Miata only available in limited production numbers made during the regular production run for a limited time. It was an attempt by Mazda to standardize a higher level of build, exclusivity and upscale content. The series consisted mostly in the application of exclusive special paint colors, luxury interior features, special wheels and M Edition badges/logos throughout the interior and exterior of each car.  The M Edition series (as produced by Mazda from the factory) does not offer any engine or suspension performance enhancements over the regular series MX-5 Miata nor were they sequentially numbered.  Their VIN numbers are scattered throughout the regular run Miatas. The Mazda Miata M Edition series of vehicles are very desirable and sought after by Miata enthusiasts.  Searching for a low mileage clean M Edition and finding one is to may like finding the ultimate Miata.  Fairly expensive when first introduced, they can now be found priced as a regular used car, particularly if the seller has no idea what an M Edition is.  Further, the well known used car resale value guides seem to somewhat under value what Miatas are actually trading hands for.  Most clean Miatas will usually sell over blue book value, that’s not to say you can’t find one at a bargain price though.  M Editions are not sequentially numbered and their VIN numbers will be scattered throughout the regular run for each year.  A total of 12,470 M Editions were manufactured throughout the 4 year run. The colors and features will make any M Edition stand out at a gathering of Miatas and the clean low mileage ones are harder and harder to find.     The ’96 M is the first in the series to offer M Edition script on the tachometer and rear back of seats.  New black faced MSSS stereo offered with side door tweeters.  This is the only Miata ever offered with a factory installed (actually port installed) alarm/remote system. The ’96 M had the most expensive sticker price of any NA Miata.  The lower body sills are body color painted from the factory.

Mazda Miata 25th anniversary display is roadster heaven on Earth

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

As part of the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the MX-5 Miata, Mazda has put together a rather large display at its New York Auto Show booth, showing off significant models from the diminutive roadsters history.
The display represents a healthy split of volume models, with cars 14, 15 and 17 sitting alongside cars 500,000 and 700,000. There are also more than a few concept cars in the offering, such as the Super20 Concept we drove a few years back, as well as older offerings, like the Club Racer concept from the 1989 Chicago Auto Show, the M-Speedster from the 1995 Chicago show and the M Coupe from the 1996 New York Auto Show.
We've put together a gallery of images of the historical Miata display, which you can view above. Take a look and then let us know which of Mazda's awesome roadsters is your favorite.

Mazda Furai concept designer talks about his car's passing

Tue, 17 Sep 2013

Last week, there was mourning at the Autoblog offices as word trickled in that the Mazda Furai concept - one of the coolest, best-looking showcars to grace an auto show stage since the wild and crazy 1960s -had been killed. It was killed on the track with the folks from Top Gear in attendance. We're sure the gods of driving would have wanted it to die on a circuit, but that doesn't make its fiery passing any easier to deal with.
The Furai is the rare concept car that had a lasting appeal with enthusiasts, partly because it was a real, functioning racecar, complete with a wacky three-rotor Wankel engine and cutting-edge Nagare design. Now that it's gone, though, Road & Track's Mallory McMorrow, who was an intern at Mazda Design when the Furai was being styled in 2007, has published an interview with one of the men who penned the Mazda showcar's striking exterior, Carlos Salaff. It's a great piece on the emotional connection between a designer and his creation, and one you should take the time to read. Click on over to R&T for the full story.

Mazda reports highest profits in its 94-year history

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

We may only be a third of the way through 2014, but for Japanese companies, March 31 marked the end of fiscal 2014, and it was a banner financial year for Mazda's global operations. The Japanese independent saw its highest global operating profits in its nearly 100-year history. Its global operating profits were up a huge 238 percent. Yes, a 238 percent increase over 2012 to 1.36 billion euros ($1.88 billion), eclipsing the brand's previous best year, 2008, by 12 percent. Net earnings, revenue and global sales volume also saw increases over the last fiscal year.
What's most impressive, though, is where Mazda saw improvement. The notoriously rough European market was rather kind to the Zoom-Zoom brand, where sales increased 25 percent to 163,000 units. That figure was bolstered by a 35-percent sales increase in Great Britain and a 20-percent jump in Germany, Europe's two largest markets. Japanese sales, meanwhile, were up a respectable 13 percent, to 244,000 units. In China, Mazda saw a 12 percent bump.
Notice we aren't talking about North American sales? That's because Mazda only saw a moderate, five-percent gain in the New World, with sales climbing to 391,000 units in the US, Canada and Mexico. This is particularly disappointing considering Mazda has launched three critically acclaimed products (CX-5, Mazda6 and most recently, Mazda3) for the North American market over the past two fiscal years. Still, it isn't a particular reason to be concerned, as IHS industry analyst Stephanie Brinley notes. "Five percent isn't terrible," Brinley told Autoblog, saying that Mazda should see a bump in 2014 as the Mazda3 picks up steam.
