For sale is my personally owned car which I did not envision selling since this is my forth Mazda Miata and the best one I've ever owned. The only reason I'm selling it is because I miscalculated the amount I owe on my taxes this year and one of my toys has to go. I purchased the Mazdaspeed (only 5000 turbocharged units(?) were made in 2004) in August 2012 here on ebay, and had it shipped to me in Albuquuerque, NM from Ft. Lauderdale Florida. That is how bad I wanted this car! It had 31,000 miles on it and now has only 34,000 miles on it.

- installed a programmable Apex boost controller (shown in photo inside armrest console),
- installed a boost guage which is handsomely installed in the left drivers side A/C vent (see photo, nice, and looks factory),

- replaced ALL the fluids. Transmission (with synthetic manual transmission oil), coolant, rear differential, andbleed all the brakes (Oil and filter was changed before delivery),
- installed a Racing Beat stainless steel exhaust which gives the car a nice mellow, deep tone, reminescent of the old British cars (I kept the stock exhaust),
- installed new tires; BF Goodrich, G-Force Super Sport, A/S, 205/40R/17 tires on the car at a cost of $560, and
- replaced the fan/alternator belts with Mazda OEM belts.

Mazda2 successor to ride atop shortened CX-5 platform
Fri, 31 May 2013Mazda, looking to make the most of its new, lightweight Skyactiv vehicle architecture, will allegedly use a version of the CX-5 crossover's platform to underpin its next-generation Mazda2 hatchback, according to a report from Just-Auto.com. Of course, the Mazda2 is a much smaller vehicle than its larger CUV stablemate, so some serious chopping will no doubt be in order when it comes time to engineer the replacement for the company's smallest hatch.
Currently, the CX-5 and the sleek new Mazda6 share many of the same platform components, and this architecture will already be scaled down to support the next-generation Mazda3 sedan and hatchback, which will debut later this year. Just-Auto.com states that all of Mazda's remaining front-wheel-drive vehicles will eventually switch to reworked versions of this Skyactiv platform, including the replacement for the larger CX-9 crossover.
Also of note, Mazda will reportedly be switching to shorter, four-year lifecycles for its vehicles. This means that the newly launched Mazda6 will be replaced for the 2016 calendar year, with a refresh coming sometime in 2014. That said, vehicles with platforms supplied by other automakers (like the upcoming MX-5 Miata replacement that will share its underpinnings with an Alfa Romeo product) will not necessarily follow this four-year rule.
Mazda CX-5 in auto-brake accident on Japanese test drive
Thu, 14 Nov 2013As we slowly march towards a world where our cars will drive for us, there will be mishaps. Systems will act up, not behave has intended or we'll simply forget to turn them on. We all remember when Volvo tested the S60's City Safety system. Now Mazda has had an issue of its own.
During a test of a Mazda CX-5's Smart City Brake Support on a dealership lot in Japan, a prospective customer and a dealership employee were injured when they hit a urethane barrier used for testing the system. According to Bloomberg, which spoke with the Saitama Prefectural Police, the impact with the barrier left the customer with an injured neck while the dealership employee suffered a fractured arm. Considering the injuries, we imagine this wasn't a small barrier.
"For any safety function, it's impossible to be 100-percent free of accidents. These technical functions aren't always the easiest to understand," IHS Automotive auto parts analyst, Hiroshi Ataka told Bloomberg.
NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors
Wed, 22 Oct 2014
Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
