2009 Mazda 5 Sport Mini Van - Needs Engine - Sold As-is on 2040-cars

You are bidding on a 2009 Mazda 5 mini van, for sale by the original owner. The car is being sold as-is and needs some work. Please read the condition description carefully and look at the picture of the estimate to repair. The dealer recommends a new engine and brakes, which will cost $6,500 from that dealer to repair. I did not get a second opinion so perhaps you can get lucky with a cheaper option at another dealer, but you should count on the $6,500 when deciding on your bid price. I am offering no warranty, but I am doing my best to be transparent about what is needed. 

The car is the basic sport model, which comes quite nicely equipped. It has automatic climate control, cruise control, radio with CD, and a very versatile seating setup. Seating for 6 and several combinations of folding seats to increase cargo room. It is a great family car that gets surprisingly good mileage for a van. 

It currently has a great set of snow tires installed and I am also including the summer tires, two of which were replaced in June. Drives very well in the snow with the snow tires, but I do recommend you continue to use snow tires in the winter as the summer radials are not ideal for snow.

I will also throw in a nice bluetooth speaker phone device that is on the windshield and is solar powered. 

The car is drive-able as-is, but it will need the engine repair soon. You won't need to have it towed to a shop, but I suggest that the shop is the first place you drive it.

Mazda to celebrate 25 years of MX-5 with 15 Miatas in New York

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

Having first debuted at the Chicago Auto Show in 1989, the Mazda MX-5 Miata has been on the market now for an impressive 25 years. So to celebrate that quarter-century anniversary, Mazda is bringing no less than 15 examples of the legendary roadster from throughout its history to the New York Auto Show this year.
Mazda isn't saying just which versions of the MX-5 it's bringing to the Javitz center this year, but with three generations to choose from and over 900,000 units built and sold, there are plenty of examples - including production versions, special editions and concept cars.
What would really put the cherry on this birthday cake, however, would be if Mazda were to surprise us in Manhattan with the debut of the highly anticipated fourth-generation Miata that we're expecting to debut sometime this year.

Mazda CX-3 details come to light

Sun, 09 Dec 2012

Mazda may be working on a new CUV, according to Auto Express. Reportedly called the CX-3, the small crossover will be engineered to take on the likes of the Ford EcoSport and Nissan Juke, but with a focus on fuel efficiency and engaging driving characteristics.
The report names no sources, but says the CX-3 will benefit from a new small-displacement diesel engine. The 1.6-liter oil burner will be joined by a 1.3-liter gasoline engine when the vehicle debuts in 2014. Auto Express reports the model may bow as a front-wheel drive offering only, with no all-wheel-drive option.
And what will it look like? Word has it Mazda will continue to leverage the face we've seen on the current CX-5 (pictured). That means the company's shield grille will make the jump, but with more plastic lower body cladding. Inside, Auto Express says the CX-3 will offer buyers fold-flat rear seating for extra cargo capacity.

Mazda2 nets Japan Car of the Year, Cherokee first US model to ever crack top 10

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

The 2015 Mazda2 is quite high up on our must-drive list. Yes, the teeny, tiny successor to the 100-horsepower five-door is worth getting excited over, largely because the previous generation was one of the absolute best smiles-per-dollar values on the market.
While we eagerly await for our opportunity to take to the 2's helm, our expectations of the new car have just been heightened thanks to its win in Japan's Car of the Year competition. Called "Demio" in the land of the rising sun, Japanese journalists handed out Mazda's second COTY award since the CX-5 took the title in 2012.
In more surprising news, the new Jeep Cherokee has made the list of 10 Best Cars in Japan. The Jeep's triumph marks the first time an American car has cracked the top ten, finishing eighth. It's not, however, the first Fiat Chrysler vehicle to snag the title, following in the footsteps of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta and Fiat Panda. Still, the fact that an American brand can make such impressive inroads into the traditionally tough-to-crack Japanese market is a seriously big deal.
