    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. Before you buy the 2016 Mazda MX-5 GS, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

    A buyer's checks

    Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA has 34 owner complaints on file, mostly about power train, unknown or other and air bags. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

    What the specs mean

    Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder, driving through a 6-speed automatic. 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.

    Expect about 23 litres for every 300 km, going by its 7.8 L/100 km combined rating. Every 100 km costs about $13.65 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    Who rents the MX-5

    It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

    Space and size

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

    Try before you buy

    A test week in the MX-5 tells you more than any review. Try the MX-5 on your commute, then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the MX-5 answers the big questions.

    Picking a year and a trim

    Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Compare the GS with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

    The cost of driving it

    Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.65 in fuel.
