The 2014 Mazda MX-5 for buyers
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2014 Mazda MX-5 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. Here is the 2014 Mazda MX-5 for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.
Recalls and complaints
Owners filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, most often about service brakes, structure and power train; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Specs, explained
It runs 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.
The EPA rates it at 9.7 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 29 litres. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $50.91 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,400 a year for 15,000 miles.
A good match for
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
The MX-5 in everyday use
As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.
A longer test drive
Rent the MX-5 for a week and see how it fits your life. A test week in the MX-5 tells you more than any review. A week with the MX-5 answers more than any brochure.
Year and trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
What it costs to run
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $169.70 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.
