Rare Clean Modified Mazdaspeed Sedan Upgraded Turbo Gray Metallic Custom Stereo on 2040-cars
Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, United States
2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege Production number 1250 of 2750. Hello and thank you for your interest in my Mazdaspeed Protege! I purchased the car January of 2010 from a dealer to drive it to and from work and college. I fell in love with it when I first saw it and tied the knot after the test drive :D. I have been enjoying this beast for the past few years and sadly it is time to let it go. This has been my weekend/project car for the last year after I bought my Dodge Magnum. I am selling this car because I made a dramatic career switch and can't afford to have two cars and the Magnum suits my needs better. When I bought it there was already a lot of work done to it and I have done a whole lot more. I have spent over $15,000 on it not including original purchase price. Highlights include:
Mechanical parts list:
Electrical/Stereo:
Other details: Tag Expires Dec 31 2014 Delaware. Currently the car drives great with the exception of 1 issue. While under moderate to full throttle and at 54-5500rpm and boost it seems to buck or hiccup. I believe this can be solved through tuning the air/fuel ratio with the PSC-1. However it is throwing the P0300 and P0335 codes which point to a crankshaft position sensor problem. I have no time or money to troubleshoot or fix that. I have the PSC-1 tuned to run the car rich until you tune it yourself (instructions included) or have a professional tune it. Other than that the new turbo spools up fast and pulls strong you just can't floor it until it is tuned and that issue is fixed. Also Including: The manuals from the majority of the aftermarket parts including all the tuning related equipment and some service manuals. Pre-cut 20% tint for all windows. Assorted accessories/spare parts. I will provide limited technical support through email or phone for 30 days after I have received payment and provided that you are polite and friendly. This is a huge value since I know every square inch of the car. Important: Buyer is responsible for picking up the vehicle or arranging and paying for transportation of vehicle to buyer. I will travel up to 25 miles to meet you. Sale is final, no refunds, no return. Payment is due within 36 hours after end of auction. |

Mazda MX-5 GT gets green light
Fri, 18 Oct 2013The Mazda MX-5 Miata is as popular around the Autoblog offices as Kate Upton posters are around fraternity houses. Few staffers have much criticism for Mazda's ubiquitous roadster, and fewer still aren't overjoyed when one arrives in their driveway. So you can imagine how a report from Auto Express about a more potent MX-5 model is going over in our offices today.
The new model, which was shown in concept form as the Mazda MX-5 GT at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, has a slight catch, though. First, we have absolutely no idea if Mazda will bring the MX-5 GT to the US. Secondly, and perhaps more problematically, this isn't a production car - it's a kit from the team at Jota Sport.
Now, to be fair, the kit doesn't sound like a bad thing. It bumps the UK-spec 2.0-liter, 157-horsepower engine up to 203 hp thanks to a sports exhaust and a revamped ECU (46 horsepower from an ECU and exhaust in a naturally aspirated car?). To make the little Miata even more agile, Jota has also fiddled with the suspension. AE doesn't mention things like the grippy tires or Recaro seats that were found on the concept, though.
Mazda ad showing Facebook updates while driving criticized by Senate committee [w/video]
Sat, 08 Feb 2014Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller, D-WV, held an all-day summit on Thursday to discuss the dangers of using modern technology while driving, during which an ad that Mazda aired during the Super Bowl was used as an example of the worrisome future towards which we're headed. While seemingly innocuous at first glance, the ad, which can be seen below, shows a brief glimpse of a driver using the Mazda Connect infotainment system in a Mazda3 to check/update his Facebook page while driving down the road.
Officials from major communications companies like Samsung, Google and Apple attended the summit, as well as representatives from automakers including General Motors and Toyota. A representative from Mazda was not present despite the company's own currently available technology being used as the poster child for the issues being discussed.
According to Automotive News, Senator Rockefeller warned the automaker and communication execs on hand that he will propose legislation to regulate the use of technology while driving if they don't work together to implement their own standards more quickly. Michael Robinson, GM's vice president of sustainability and global regulatory affairs, argued that his company has had distracted driving guidelines in place for 15 years since the advent of its OnStar system, noting that the technology in question has also helped the automaker save lives through automatic crash detection and calls to 911.
Miata driver pulls off hilariously diabolical move in fender-to-fender racing
Wed, 27 Aug 2014Racing is all about finding the little advantages over competitors that allow you to get ahead. Sometimes those are legitimate means - like being able to take advantage of a better line through a corner - and other times drivers get a little more creative for a leg up over opponents. Sometimes things might even go a little too far. Case in point: just watch the opening of this Mazda MX-5 Cup race from Silverstone in the UK.
According to the YouTube description, we're riding with James Rogers in this video, and he appears to be pretty talented behind the wheel. Rogers has a great start from fifth that has him in third within just a few corners. He starts stalking the top two drivers, who are already having a fantastic race themselves, but then we see that the person in second is clearly willing to do whatever it takes to win. Just watch the video, and you'll see what we mean. Bravo (?) to that racer for some very quick, albeit fiendish, thinking.
