1999 Silver Miata on 2040-cars
Leslie, Arkansas, United States
|
I am selling a 1999 Miata with lots of extras. Most can be seen in photographs; otherwise I will elaborate upon. I replaced the factory radio with a Pioneer stereo system that has a CD/DVD player, hands free phone capability and navigation system in July of 2013. The stereo system was approximately $1,000.00. At the same time I replaced the factory speakers and had the windows tinted. The removable hard top has new window seal as well as bottom gasket. I have a cover and rack for the hard top which I am throwing in. These items are not shown in the pictures. I also have GarageStar bolt-on brackets for removable hard top. In case you are unfamiliar with these, they are designed to prevent a quick "grab and run". I have never gotten around to putting them on, so it just has the factory spring loaded latches. I have the original owner's manual, as well as the manual for the new stereo system. Whereas this does not have the leather interior, it does have a Nardi steering wheel. It has a Billet grill. The AC is cold, and the heat is hot! As can be seen in one of the pictures, there is some wear on the driver's seat. The current mileage is 192,403. At the time of the sale, mileage will probably be a bit higher, but not much. Even though, to the best of my knowledge, there is nothing seriously wrong with the vehicle mechanically, I realize the mileage is going to scare some people. That is why I have the low Buy It Now for a quick sale. As previously mentioned, this rides very firm, but there are no rattles, shimmies, vibrations, pulling, or any other negative "driving feel". MAINTENANCE: At 185,928 miles the tires were replaced as was the timing belt, all light bulbs, brake pads and slotted rotors. The tires that were put on are 205/45 R16. I BELIEVE factory tires were 185/60 R14 and an option was 195/50 R15. If I was 20 or 30, I would say these 16 inch wheels and tires are great; but they are REALLY, REALLY a firm ride which is tough on an old geezer like me! All of this cost $1,831.67. At 186,662 I had the cylinder head rebuilt at a cost of $1,563.45. Now that I spent all this money on mechanical things, I have decided the car is just too small for me, and recently purchased a Z 28 convertible. Therefore, I no longer need the Miata. I feel the pictures pretty much speak for themselves. I have several more pictures ready to go, so if you want to see anything from a different angle or in greater detail, let me know and I will email them to you. If someone would like to look at the vehicle before bidding, I am located about 100 miles north of Little Rock, Arkansas in the Ozarks. If you want the vehicle shipped, I will not make the arrangements, but I will work with your shipper in any way that I can. There are probably several things that I have forgotten to mention, so if you have any questions, I will answer them as completely as I can. A $200.00 non-refundable deposit by Paypal is required within 24 hours of auction's end. Balance of payment (either cashier's check, money order, or cash) must be received before car is released. Once car is paid for, I am willing to store it in my garage for a "REASONABLE" amount of time. This time can be discussed with buyer at time of sale. |

Mazda3 to showcase CNG, Hybrid versions in Tokyo
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Mazda has made huge gains in its competitive set with the introduction of its Skyactiv technologies, and the Japanese automaker appears to have no plans on slowing down. While we're still waiting for the Mazda6 Skyactiv-D diesel to go on sale in the US, Mazda announced that it will debut new Skyactiv-Hybrid and Skyactiv-CNG versions of the Mazda3 (standard US-spec model shown above) at next month's Tokyo Motor Show.
Matching up with what we heard earlier in the summer, the Mazda3 Skyactiv-Hybrid is intended for Japan only, but there are no details about this system regarding fuel economy, electric components or specs. Likewise, there are no details for the Mazda3 Skyactiv-CNG Concept, which is a bi-fuel version of the car running on both gasoline and compressed natural gas. As this car's name suggests, the CNG model is a concept vehicle, and there is no indication that Mazda plans offering such a model here in the US.
In addition to these two vehicles, Mazda will also have an Atenza (Mazda6) on display showing off some vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) safety systems, called the ASV-5 (Advanced Safety Vehicle). Scroll down for Mazda's official press release.
Mazda begins building Mazda3 in Mexico for US
Tue, 07 Jan 2014With fluctuations in international currencies and rising shipping costs to take into account, foreign automakers can't get away with building cars overseas and selling them in North America as easily as they used to. Particularly with inexpensive mainstream models. And given the benefits of cheaper labor and free trade under NAFTA, many have opted to assemble their cars for the North American market in Mexico. That's why the likes of Toyota, Mercedes and BMW have all opened plants in Mexico. And now Mazda has followed suit.
Ground was initially broken for Mazda de Mexico Vehicle Operations at Salamanca in the state of Gunajuato back in 2011, but production has just now gotten under way. The first vehicle to roll off the line? A Mazda3 sedan destined for the United States. Soon, the plant will begin production of the next Mazda2 as well, selling it alongside its larger counterpart across the Americas and in Europe as production expands to 230,000 units annually. For more information, see the official press release below.
Mazda recalling 88k vehicles for ECU glitch
Fri, 04 Apr 2014Need a break from news about the General Motors ignition switch recall? This Mazda recall should serve as a nice change of pace. It involves 88,000 cars across the globe, and focuses on the brand's three most recent (and important) models - the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5.
The issue rests with Mazda's new i-ELOOP regenerative braking system. Apparently there's a problem with the ECU program that monitors whether a capacitor in the regen system is working. Acceleration is affected, and in severe cases, the engine could stall. There have been no mention of accidents or injuries due to the issue, and the glitch itself can be cured by an ECU reflash.
As i-ELOOP is a fairly new system for Mazda, particularly in the US, the total number of affected models is rather low, with just 6,500 US cars affected. Europe is hit hardest, with 38,000 models while Mazda's home market of Japan adds 27,600 cars and crossovers. Affected models were built between October 2012 and January 2014.
