    Buying the 2016 Mazda MX-5 GS

    We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2016 Mazda MX-5 GS for sale by us right now. This page sets out the 2016 Mazda MX-5 GS for buyers, in plain words.

    Recalls and complaints

    Owners filed 34 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, unknown or other and air bags; have those parts checked. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

    Specs, explained

    It uses the 2.0L 4-cylinder and rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

    Plan on about 23 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 7.8 L/100 km. Expect about $13.65 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,750 a year for 15,000 miles.

    Size and space

    Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo.

    Best uses

    It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move.

    Try before you buy

    Rent the MX-5 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Try the MX-5 on your commute, then decide.

    Money matters

    A 1,000 km month costs roughly $136.50 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.65 in fuel.

    Choosing the right one

    Compare the GS with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
