This auction is for a nice 1990 Mazda Miata with 96,500 mi. I've had this car for 20 years, purchasing it from a dealer in San Diego in 1993. I believe I'm the second owner. This has been the best car I've ever owned....PERIOD! I'm selling it to make room for another car that's easier for me to enter and exit. This car was vandalized twice in it's life. Once the rear window was punched out and the radio yanked (before I got it). It has a replacement rear window and radio/cassette. The radio/ heater control surround is damaged and I re-glued it but the damage to it is evident (see pic). Also about 15 years ago someone (probably a drunken college student) decided it would be fun to key EVERY panel on the car. It has a very nice re-paint job. Also, about 3 years ago, there was some rust on the running board section of the left rear 1/4 panel and rather than replace the 1/4, a stainless steel patch was put in place.
The car has a new clutch assembly, slave cylinder, starter, front brake caliper, plug wires, cam cover gasket, belt tensioner pulley, and thermostat. The rear plastic window zipper is a little difficult to re zip so I just place a foam piece on the window when folding down the top. The AC needs recharging. I never use it. As the listing indicates a deposit of $400.00 is required at the auction end with full payment due in a week. I'm also not interested in trades.

Lexus, Mazda win KBB 5-Year Cost To Own Awards
Wed, 05 Feb 2014We focus a lot on what new cars are like to drive, but it's difficult on a one-week loan to really get a sense of what a car is like to live with. Sure, we try to recreate that sense with our long-term vehicles, but even after a year, it's impossible to know fully learn about a car, particularly in terms of reliability and cost of repairs. For 2014 model year vehicles, Kelley Blue Book has put together a list of the most affordable vehicles over a five-year period.
At the tippy top of the list are Mazda and Lexus, with the Zoom-Zoom automaker winning the award for best non-luxury brand. Lexus, meanwhile, was the most affordable luxury marque over a five-year period. It's interesting to note, though, that not a single Mazda won its segment in this year's awards.
General Motors did quite well, taking eight segments, including both the subcompact and plug-in segments, with the gas-powered Chevrolet Spark and Spark EV. The Chevy Camaro SS and ZL1 took the high-performance car award. Toyota was well represented, with five winners split between the main brand (Corolla, Prius C and Tacoma) and Lexus (LS and RX).
Teen Miata enthusiast and friend of Autoblog passes away
Tue, 09 Sep 2014
When Thomas' illness made it impossible for him to drive, he relied on friends to do it for him.
Attending the reveal of the 2016 MX-5 Miata and the subsequent 25th anniversary celebration at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca confirmed that the little roadster maintains broad appeal, one not limited to the elderly or a certain gender as detractors might have you believe. In fact, the assembled crowd was surprisingly youthful, particularly amongst the club racer set and tuners. But one young Miata owner and superfan unfortunately wasn't in attendance - Thomas Jost, 19, was busy fighting for his life in a Maryland hospital.
Mazda builds 4-millionth Mazda3
Tue, 25 Feb 2014To say that the Mazda3 is a vital product for Mazda would be one heck of an understatement. In fact, the model line accounts for about 30 percent of the manufacturer's sales. Fortunately for Mazda, they're selling well.
These days, the Japanese automaker is building the Mazda3 (known domestically as the Axela) in Japan, China, Thailand and, as of last month, in Mexico. The company's expanded global production capacity has helped Mazda reach four million units of the Mazda3 sold around the world since the first model was introduced over ten and a half years ago.
Over the course of that decade since its introduction in June 2003, Mazda has gone through three generations of Mazda3, the newest model benefiting from the company's Skyactiv technology and even encompassing a hybrid model in the Japanese Domestic Market.
