All reasonableoffers will be considered.
This vehicle has never been involved in an accident of any kind.
INTERIOR:
A/C and heat work great.
All equipment is in working order.
The top operates flawlessly. It has a glass rear window (unlike the plastic, zippered windows of the previous generations) and the rear defogger works. This is a manual top, and takes only seconds to raise or lower, with one hand, from the driver's seat. The Bose radio adjusts its volume and acoustics as it detects the shift between open air motoring and closed.
All of the compartments, doors, and hatches are in excellent condition.
The interior is in really good shape, with a couple issues:
The leather seats did have several loose stitches, and a small crack in the leather on the driver's seat, but these are nowconcealedand protected by beautiful, custom-fit seat covers from MossEngineering (shameless plug), (see pics).
Also, this vehicle does not have sun-visors; they were not present when I purchased the vehicle, but theirabsence never bothered me. These can be purchased easily on Ebay, or through Moss Engineering (another shameless plug).
It seems when it is very humid out, the passenger airbag light flashes sometimes, but Mazda told me it is just a sensor; easy for one to replace if it bothers them.
The Bosesystem sounds great, and the wheel-mounted controls work flawlessly. It is worth noting, however, that the 6-disc in-dash CD player has been bypassed in favor of a USB audio input adapter in the glove box (see pics). Simply compile songs on a USB thumb drive inserted into the unit, close the glove box and select "CD". The track select functions as expected, the track numbers are displayed, andseparatefolders on thumb drive can even be selected with the disc select function. (This Bose multi-disc, in-dash changer is the only "Achilles' Heel" of this era of MX-5, often jamming while switching discs; this USB adapter is a very popular, aftermarket upgrade, and the only such modification to the vehicle! No cold-air-induction or performance chips or any other nonsense; all stock.)
EXTERIOR:
The paint is still glossy, with a deep, almost gold, metal flake that is especiallynoticeableinthe sunlight.
The body of this vehicle is in great condition, with no signs of fading paint or rust, nor any noteworthy dents or scratches.
The original top is showing signs of fading, but it is intact and has no tears.
The headlights and taillights are nice and clear; all of the lights and indicators work.
The tires are only one year old, (still have those little prongs that are on new tires) and still have a lot of life in them. The original wheels show some signs of wear (see photos). This is a very attractive vehicle, and I getcomplimentsall thetime.
MECHANICAL:
This car runs and drives great. The six-speed transmission shifts smoothly. The engine, exhaust, brakes have no issues. This vehicle has never given me any trouble!
It has never been late for an oil change, I have always used premium fuel and it has been adult driven. I would drive across the country and back in this car without amoment'shesitation!

Like most people selling their two-seaters on Ebay, I am married now, and my daughter-in-law will be living with us, so I need a backseat.
Well, I think that covers the vehicle. I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability, and covered everything about the car I can think of!
If you have any questions, please ask me first before bidding; it just saves us both a ton of trouble!
If you arrange shipping, I would be happy to make the vehicle available to the shipping company, but, it should go without saying the vehicle will not be released until all funds have cleared.
This vehicle has a clear florida title in-hand and a clear Carfax.
Any individual with no feedback or negative feedback must email me prior to bidding.
I have been an Ebay user since 1999 (!), and I have sold my last four cars on Ebay; you can still read the positive feedback from those vehicles.
Please note that this vehicle is also available locally, and I reserve the right to end this auction at any time in the event of a local sale.
