The 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS: before you buy

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Before buying the 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

Recalls and complaints

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

What the specs mean

The 2.0L 4-cylinder does the work, 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.

Its combined rating is 8.0 L/100 km, which means roughly 24 litres for 300 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $42 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,850 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Size and space

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

Good uses for the MX-5

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Rent it for a week first

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent first, buy later: a week with the MX-5 answers the big questions. Rent the MX-5 first, and buy only if it fits your life.

What it costs to run

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $140 at our price setting. 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.

Choosing the right one

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
