The 2019 Mazda MX-5: before you buy
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2019 Mazda MX-5 for sale by us right now. The 2019 Mazda MX-5 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
Before you sign for the MX-5
Owners filed 11 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, fuel system and power train; have those parts checked. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
Under the hood
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.
Fuel use is rated 7.9 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 24 litres. In energy, every 100 km costs about $13.83 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,750 a year for 15,000 miles.
Good uses for the MX-5
It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
What to expect from the MX-5
As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.
Try before you buy
If the MX-5 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent first, buy later: a week with the MX-5 answers the big questions. Try the MX-5 on your commute, then decide.
Narrowing it down
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
The cost of driving it
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 $13.83 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $138.30 at our price setting.
