The 2016 Mazda MX-5 GT: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2016 Mazda MX-5 GT for sale by us right now. The 2016 Mazda MX-5 GT for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

What to check on the MX-5

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Owners filed 34 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, unknown or other and air bags; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

Under the hood

Under the hood: 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.

Expect about 23 litres for every 300 km, going by its 7.8 L/100 km combined rating. For 1,000 km, budget about $136.50 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,750 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

The MX-5 in everyday use

As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.

Good uses for the MX-5

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Try before you buy

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

What it costs to run

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $136.50 at our price setting. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Which one to look for

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. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
