A buyer's checks

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

Under the hood

The 2.0L 4-cylinder is what moves it, 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.

Expect about 24 litres for every 300 km, going by its 8.0 L/100 km combined rating. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $14, and a 300 km weekend about $42. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,850 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

The MX-5 in everyday use

As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Rent it for a week first

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If the MX-5 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the MX-5 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Money matters

The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Narrowing it down

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
