The 2000 Mazda MX-5 Miata: before you buy
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2000 Mazda MX-5 Miata for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 2000 Mazda MX-5 Miata, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the MX-5 Miata
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the figures tell you
It is powered by the 1.8L 4-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Rated at 9.8 L/100 km combined, it needs around 29 litres for a 300 km round trip. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $15.19, and a 300 km weekend about $45.57. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who the MX-5 Miata suits
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
How big it is
Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo.
A longer test drive
Try the MX-5 Miata on your commute, then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the MX-5 Miata for a week and see how it fits your life.
Which one to look for
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Running costs
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.19 in fuel.
Still deciding?
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
Rent it for a week before you buy
