Auto loans: the 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS-P

No 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS-P is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 2018 Mazda MX-5 GS-P, here are the facts that matter.

Before you sign for the MX-5

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. 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.

Under the hood

It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with 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.

It is rated at 8.0 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 24 litres. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $14, and a 300 km weekend about $42. The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Who the MX-5 suits

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.

Living with the MX-5

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

Drive it on your own roads

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Drive the MX-5 on your commute before you commit to it. Rent the MX-5 first, and buy only if it fits your life.

Choosing the right one

Compare the GS-P with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

The cost of driving it

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $140 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Renting for Java
