This is a Mazda MX-5 SE - a factory turbocharged variant of the NB mx-5. They are rated at around 130kw from a 1.8 DOHC turbo 4cyl, with a six-speed manual.
The car has been kept in good condition - garaged for most of it's life & serviced reguarly with quality fluids - and features the top-level features like:
- Leather seats
- Six stacker cd player
- SE bodykit
and has a few tasteful modifications as follows:
- BEGI intake system (Metal air box, intake piping, Trust intercooler)
- HKS boost controller
- BC Coilovers
- Genuine 17" CR-Kai's
If you aren't intending to low-ball, there is also a set of essentially new Work CR-01 15" rims wrapped in brand new (never driven on) Toyo Proxes. These are worth a ton. You'll also get a shiny shiny aftermarket turbo manifold and dump pipe, a GPS/DVD head unit, as well as a full race-spec roll bar. Price is quite negotiable if you don't want these bits.
This is a very entertaining little car, that makes all the right noises and is impossible to drive without a huge childish grin on your face. When you hear people claim that a car drives like a go-kart, they should really drive one of these things first.
Now, for fairness sake, some bad points:
- There are a few tiny scratches around the wheel arches, nothing hugely visible
- One of the clips on the roof is difficult to close, but doesn't affect the function of the roof
- A piece of trim above the gearstick is missing, but this was going to be where the boost controller was going to live.
- some of the photos show it's stock wheels, which aren't around now.
Other than that the car is very clean and neat.
Please, no test pilots.
