    The 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS-P: before you buy

    We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS-P for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS-P before buying one.

    Recalls and complaints

    NHTSA has 3 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, engine and power train. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done.

    Engine and fuel

    The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and 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.

    It is rated at 8.0 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 24 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $14 to drive 100 km. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,850 a year for 15,000 miles.

    Is it right for your trip?

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

    The MX-5 in everyday use

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

    Rent it for a week first

    Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the MX-5 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

    Narrowing it down

    Compare the GS-P with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

    Running costs

    Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
