Used 2004 Mazda MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata for Sale near Puerto Rico
The MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata was the second production car available in the U.S. with the special sports package created by MAZDASPEED, Mazda's in-house motorsports and specialty-car tuning division. The first was the MAZDASPEED Protege, which was available as a limited edition vehicle in 2003.
The MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata was also a limited edition, based on Mazda's popular two-seat roadster. Mazda started by giving the MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata a 25 percent power boost over the standard Miata, thanks to a turbocharged and intercooled 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine that pumped out 178 horsepower. The standard (and only) transmission was a six-speed manual, with refined shift points and a strengthened clutch.
Helping to improve the MAZDASPEED Miata's handling were a lower ride height, beefed-up springs and dampers, a modified double-wishbone suspension, and rack-and-pinion steering. Outside, only two colors were available -- Velocity Red and Titanium Grey.
Standard features included black cloth-trimmed upholstery, power windows, power door locks, dual second-generation airbags, a black vinyl convertible top, a glass rear window, anti-lock braking system, 17-inch alloy wheels, and a Bose six-speaker audio system with CD. A Grand Touring package added black leather bucket seats and a black cloth soft top, among other features.
For the most part, drivers gave the MAZDASPEED Miata positive marks for such factors as performance and value, but some had quibbles with the vehicle, including its air conditioning and gas mileage. In addition, some drivers felt that the Miata's ride could be a bit rough and that the seats were less then comfortable, especially over the long haul.
4.7 Overall rating
(28 reviews)Mazdaspeed is designed for lightness and come standard with handling aids including sway bars, Bilstein, coil overs. And a power boost to 178 hp. 38 more than any other Miata until the 2019 ND’s CD were released. Fabulous handling, cruises nicely top down at 80 mph, and the power band when Turbo kicks in above 3,500 rpm. Find a car that has not lived in the North as rust can eat them up. I love mine.
Performance – Great, but highly limited from factory. NEEDS aftermarket upgrades to reach full potential. Increases of 30% in crank horsepower and torque from simple full intake and exhaust mods. With an ECU, larger injectors, intake/MBC & exhaust, these cars put down 215-230 whp... From 178hp stock, that's a huge increase. Build Quality – Excellent for it's size and type. Some rattles, but I expected much worse from a car with this kind of suspension setup. Appearance – Excellent, but smallest vehicle on the road meaning you're nearly invisible to some drivers and are a rock chip and door ding magnet. Watch out. Cost of Ownership – Medium. Fun Factor – Outstanding.
2004 Mazdaspeed MIATA is just a hoot to drive! It responds well to every situation and it is pretty well up to the driver to determine the limits. Shifts easily and quickly. Handles very well in every situation that you find yourself in. Besides all of the above, it looks GREAT!
this car was fast and so much fun to drive. It would get up to speed very quickly and could take a turn at high speed so easily.
Excellent condition with 11K reported mileage. However, three previous owners. Seller is intransigent asking $22K which is more than $5K the car is valued. Hagerty will provide the premium even if the owner-declared value is unrealistic. Great car but not considered a worthy collectable for the asking price.
