Used 2002 Mazda MX-5 Miata Base for Sale near Kennewick, WA

Absolutely outstanding handling gives credence to the fact this is the most-raced car in North America. Amazing shifter, 50/50 weight balance, tractable engine, and surgical steering. It is, however, very small and anyone over 6'4" or with an inseam over 34" need not bother to attempt ingress. The car doesn't have a terribly large amount of power (142 hp for the 2001-2005 model discussed here). And while 5.0 cubic feet of trunk space is plenty ample enough for normal trips or a carefully packed weekend getaway for two, it won't replace your SUV or station wagon for taking bags of recycling to the center.

a little TOO small but it handles amazing and has been extremely reliable for the past 2 years ive owned it. I would definitely reccomend it to anyone i get alot of compliments on it, i just wish it had a little more power

Finally, projector low beams instead of dumb flip up headlights. This car looks so much better for it. The previous owner did most of the cosmetic upgrades, I chose to add a functional rollbar for safety and looks. Overall, I'm really satisfied with this car. But like all cars, it could use more power, only 142 hp on tap here. And a 6th gear would be nice to cut down on engine noise at highway speeds and maybe get better fuel economy from it. Service date: 24 May 2007 to present. Gasoline used: mostly 89 octane over 4500 miles averaging 25.72. Per gallon price ranged from $2.669 (8/16/07) to $3.119 (5/30/07).
