Thinking of buying the 2014 Mazda MX-5?

A buyer's checks
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Owners filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, most often about service brakes, structure and power train; have those parts checked.
Engine and fuel
Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder and 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.
By the EPA's combined rating of 9.7 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 29 litres. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $16.97, and a 300 km weekend about $50.91. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,400 a year for 15,000 miles.
When the MX-5 makes sense
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Space, size and seats
As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.
A longer test drive
Rent first, buy later: a week with the MX-5 answers the big questions. 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.
Picking a year and a trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. 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.
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.
