Used Mazda MX-5 Miata for Sale

First of all, its a good-looking sports car. Its design is simple, and it was well engineered. It is reliable, handles well, and the 50/50 weight distribution allows the driver to really feel in control of his car. I enjoy the feeling I get when I drive. It makes every trip an adventure. It does not handle well in the rain, but other than that, it is the best sports car a person can buy. It is not fast, but it makes up for that with its superb handling. There is no match for the Mazda MX-5 Miata.

The 1995 Mazda MX-5, better known as the Miata is one of the best handling compact cars ever made. It has been in production for over 20 years and while the body style and specs have changed slightly, it still offers razors-edge handling, good looks and excellent fuel economy. Older models can be found on the used car market for pennies on the dollar and can be restored to almost new condition relatively inexpensively. If you are looking for a great handling car, the MX5 is a winner.

This was the first year released model of the convertible Miata MX5 by Mazda. Mazda promoted this as an entry level low cost convertible. I have to admit that given the low price this was one of the most fun vehicles that I had ever owned. The 5-speed transmission and two latch and one zipper convertible top release made any long highway or coast journey an enjoyable experience. The car was used primarily as a work commuter and weekend trip car. I daily took it along the Pacific Highway Coast and through Topanga and Mulholland Canyons. Despite it's small wheel size, the car drove like it was on rails. The car with several package options and the air conditioning and third party sound system only added to the driving enjoyment in all types of weather. The only non standard maintenance issues I had with the car were a burnt out intermittent fan sensor and oxidation and cracking of the plastic rear window after 4 years. This is the kind of car that every parent would want their college bound young adult to drive to college and to beach parties in.
