1996 Mazda Mx-5 Miata on 2040-cars
Madison, Wisconsin, United States
1996 Miata MX-5 M Edition I bought this car Aug, 2015 with approximately 97k. SoI have put just about 2000 miles on it and always kept garaged even through thewinter. Never drove it in the winter. The body is rust free. No surface rust topor bottom. However I would consider this to be a drivers car. Meaning that thepaint has several dings and a few touch ups. It could use a paint job to be verynice. The silver stripe is a decal and can be easily removed if you prefer. TheM Edition comes with power windows, leather seats and ABS brakes. When Ipurchased the car It needed a timing belt and then I progressively started makeseveral other upgrades. The head was removed for a valve job, surfacing gasketmatching along with ALL NEW hydraulic lifters!Timing beltWater pumpMain bearingfrontExedy ClutchFidanza flywheelRear main bearingNew fluidRedline differential fluidWilwood big brakes kit from GoodwinRacingSteel brake linesMotul 600 brake fluidPerformance brake padsAvanti Storm9" wheels225/45/ZR15 Goodrich RivalsMega-Squirt pro tuned by Dyno Source,Waukegan IlA&M AFR gaugeGoodwin bump steer blocks Visible in extended lower control jointsRacing beat front swaybar with endlinksFeal 441 road race custom coilovers.

Thisis more of a drivers car the way it is but a prime candidate for paint to make"very" nice. It starts and idle

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata first in-car observations
Sun, 07 Sep 2014We've had few days to digest the all-new 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata since the roadster was first revealed on Wednesday evening when we offered you our first impressions. Since that time, we've gone back and looked at the car a number of times in person here in California, and we've even seen it briefly run under its own power (okay, it was more of a saunter). What we didn't get the chance to do at the reveal, however, was sit inside the car. We've since been able to remedy that, and while we haven't been allowed to drive the new roadster, we do have some initial in-car impressions to share with you.
First, the location and feel of the major controls is quite excellent. The three-spoke steering wheel is an MX-5 specific item - it's not shared with any other Mazda. That's vital, because others would likely be too big in diameter or have the wrong rim thickness. The wheel's redundant controls seem to be well laid out and the airbag boss is very small. The column tilts, but unfortunately and somewhat inexplicably, it still doesn't telescope.
Pedals are well-spaced, and the six-speed manual has the same short throws and positive engagement that we've come to know and love.
Next Mazda MX-5 Miata to weigh a ton(ne), literally
Wed, 27 Nov 2013Looking at recent spy shots of the fourth-generation Mazda Miata, it's obvious this sporty little roadster will grow in size compared to the current model, but it's also going on a diet. At the Tokyo Motor Show, Auto Motor und Sport sat down with Mazda executive Kiyoshi Fujiwara, who gave a little more insight into the Miata's redesign.
Fujiwara said that they're aiming for a curb weight of a tonne (metric ton), which is 1,000 kilograms or right around 2,200 pounds, for the next-generation Miata. This would make the roadster at least 300 pounds lighter than the current NC Miata, but still about 200 pounds heavier than the original NA.
There is no indication as to how Mazda will go about removing that much weight from the bigger car, but with as popular as the power retractable hard top (PHRT) model is on the current car, the new Miata may ditch this feature to lose its weight. Improving the power-to-weight ratio appears to be a key goal of the Mazda team, so we also wouldn't be surprised to see a more powerful engine underneath the longer hood.
Mazda2 production fires up in Mexico
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Mazda has officially kicked off production of the next-generation Mazda2 at the company's new factory in Salamanca, Mexico. Alongside the auto assembly plant, operations have also commenced at the facility's engine machining factory.
"With the start of production of the all-new Mazda2, operations underway at the engine machining plant, and an increase in our annual production capacity, we now have an even stronger production framework capable of supplying global markets with Skyactiv products of the same high quality level as those made in Japan," Mazda de Mexico Vehicle Operation's President Keishi Egawa said in a statement. "At the same time, we are pleased to be able to make a contribution to Mexico's further economic growth."
MMVO joins Mazda's Hofu Plant in Japan and the Auto Alliance factory in Thailand, which commenced Mazda2 production in July and September, respectively.
