Up for auction I have a beautiful low mile 2003 Mazda Miata, Shinsen Limited Edition. I purchased from the original owner and have all maintenance records dating to new. Included with the sale you will receive the factory window sticker and welcome letter from Mazda describing the Shinsen.
The paint and body are in amazing condition for an 11 year old car, with zero dents or dings. You will find a few very minor rock chips on the front of the hood. They are so small that the camera does not pick them up. There is a tiny scuff mark on the right front fender that is barely noticeable. I had the front seats re-upholstered in a leather material to match the dark blue factory canvas top, which was unique to the Shinsen. The interior is spotless. You will have to look very hard to find any defects. The dash and cluster are new looking with no wear present. Carpet and Door Panels look almost new, although they are original. This is one nicely maintained Miata. The cruise also performs as it should. The Tires have almost no wear and were purchased from Discount tire with warranties that go to the new owner. The Wheels are the factory size and are new, I had those installed myself, and they also came from Discount tire. They are Voxx Torinos. The engine has all the needed maintenance completed. The timing belt and water pump were changed at the 60,000 mile range. I have not seen any visible leaks. The previous owner had the valve cover gasket replaced which was leaking. I have not had a drop of oil in my garage since purchasing. The only repair I have done was to change the rear end to a Torsen Rear End. Shinsen's came with a sub par Fuji for 2003 only that proved not to be as reliable as the indestructible Torsen. The car runs and drives like new, with no strange sounds, shakes or shimmies and goes straight down the road. The AC performs as it should, nice and cold. The Audio System and Speakers will blow you out of the car. The only additions from stock added by the previous owner were an Amp which is in the truck, see pics, and Hard Dog Roll Bar that looks great with the car. Those sell for about 500.00 new. The original air cleaner was also changed out to a better breathing one that gives the car a slight growl when accelerated. You will have to look very hard and long to find a nicer Shinsen Miata. The car is sold As Is with No Warranty. Reserve is fair, so bid to win. Shipping will be the winning bidders responsibility. You could very easily drive this car anywhere, and feel confident in your travels. Also included with the sale is a nice car cover so keep you new Miata looking as good as it does now. |

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
Consumer Reports digs Mazda3, disses Jeep Cherokee
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has just rendered its verdict on two of the more important cars to launch this year - the Mazda3 and the Jeep Cherokee. Considering the value a "Recommended" rating carries with the public and the viciously competitive markets these two cars compete in, Consumer Reports' view could have some impact on their initial success.
For Mazda, that's a good thing. CR spoke quite highly of the Zoom-Zoom brand's compact sedan and hatch, testing both models, and citing the excellent fuel economy and snickety-snack manual shifter as high points. Downsides to the 3 included a ride that is agile but "nervous," a bit too much noise and a cramped back seat. Still, the 3 was good enough to earn its place in the ranks of the "Recommended."
The Jeep didn't fare quite so well, with CR calling the polarizing CUV "half-baked." Although both engines were tested, the magazine called the 2.4-liter four-pot underpowered and its nine-speed automatic unrefined and unresponsive. That's particularly damning, considering the 9AT's role in future Chrysler products, including the extremely important 200. Overall, the Cherokee missed out on the coveted "Recommended" rating.
Next Mazdaspeed3 could go naturally aspirated?
Fri, 12 Jul 2013The new Mazda3 is a stunner, both aesthetically and from a driving perspective. As with all good things, though, there's always room for improvement. That's where the wizards from Mazdaspeed come in. Mazda's in-house tuner has been tweaking and turbocharging the five-door Mazda3 since 2007, with impressive results.
We've shown you renderings of what the third-generation Mazdaspeed3 could look like, and for the most part your response was quite positive. Now, AutoExpress has come out with details of just what might be under that long hood. According to our friends across the pond, the new Mazda3 MPS (that's what the Speed3 is called in Her Majesty's auto industry) will be arriving with a new, high-revving, naturally aspirated engine. Wait, what?
Yes, if the rumors are to be believed, the next Mazdaspeed3 will ditch its turbocharger. According to an anonymous engineer, the new MS3 will arrive in December (this is for the UK market, mind you) with a 200-horsepower, naturally aspirated engine. The 2.0-liter mill is based on the Skyactiv engine in the new 3, and should be capable of a sub-seven-second run to 62 miles per hour.
