1999 Silver Miata on 2040-cars

US $6,500.00
Year:1999 Mileage:192403
Location:

Leslie, Arkansas, United States

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.

2015 Mazda2 revealed ahead of Paris debut [w/videos]

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

Small cars may be big business, but the world's automakers don't seem to be in any particular rush to keep them fresh. The new Smart Fortwo unveiled yesterday replaces a model that's already been around for seven years, and based on a structure dating back to the late '90s. The new Opel Corsa revealed just last week replaces a model that had been around for eight years. And the Mazda2 has been on the market in its current form for seven years now, but not for much longer because Mazda has finally revealed its successor.
Set to be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show this October, the new Mazda2 follows the stylistic lead of the Hazumi concept remarkably close, from the sharply creased front end right down to the wheel design - bringing the supermini hatchback in line with the KODO design language that characterizes its bigger siblings: the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5.
Although details released thus far are rather limited, and power will vary from one market to another, engine options center around a 1.5-liter four in both gasoline and diesel versions, joining the manual and automatic transmissions and the chassis itself under Mazda's Skyactiv technology umbrella. We wouldn't expect the diesel version to make it across the Pacific (or across the border from the plant that will build it alongside a new Toyota hatch in Mexico), but rumors have surfaced of a potential rotary hybrid. The new 2 will also include the company's MZD connectivity suite and i-Activsense safety technology.

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.

Mazda3 successor due in dealers this fall

Sat, 23 Mar 2013

Following 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.
