    Thinking of buying the 2017 Mazda MX-5 GS?

    No 2017 Mazda MX-5 GS is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. This page puts the 2017 Mazda MX-5 GS in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

    A buyer's checks

    Owners filed 11 complaints with NHTSA, most often about visibility/wiper, steering and air bags; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

    Under the hood

    The powertrain to know here is 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.

    At 8.0 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 24 litres of fuel. For 1,000 km, budget about $140 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,850 a year for 15,000 miles.

    Inside and out

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

    Good uses for the MX-5

    It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

    Rent it for a week first

    A test week in the MX-5 tells you more than any review. Rent first, buy later: a week with the MX-5 answers the big questions. Try the MX-5 on your commute, then decide.

    Money matters

    Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Which one to look for

    Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Compare the GS with the other trims of the same year before you decide.
