Used Mazda MX-5 Miata for Sale

It is not a very fast car. The interior is small and cramped. There is little trunk space. Fortunately this is a convertible and the top can be dropped as long as it is not raining to eliminate claustrophobia. The car seems unsafe, my gramma got in a fender bender in it and her arm was broken. Overall it has held together mildly well for such an old car. The transmission is finally going out on it. The convertible soft top has a few minor leaks when it is raining. A lot has been replaced under the hood like sensors, fuel filters, etc.

Who didn't grow up in the fifties and want a convertible? My Miata is perfect for me. It is more like wearing a car than driving it. It feels very comfortable and safe. Around 2000 I was in an accident where the car was t-boned. The crumple zone worked as it was supposed to. We were well protected and had minimal injuries while the car was repairable for about $10,000. There are very few mechanical problems with this vehicle. Problems have generally been age-related. It is really low maintenance as well. Regular oil changes and an occasional tune-up have kept it running in tip-top shape (knock on wood!!). My Miata goes really fast. I took it to a three-day Miata racing school around Sacramento California (Thunder Valley?). I loved going fast on the track but was a little reserved because, after all, this was my only car -- not a hobby car. On the way home, however, the road was perfectly straight and empty and I really opened it up. I'm not going to tell how fast I was going though! One super benefit is that as a two-seater, I never get asked to drive or help people move. The Miata is perfect for the antisocial loaner.

Best car I've ever owned, has no problems and runs great. I would recommend to anyone.
