Summary

Provided by NADAguides.com

Sporting a new front fascia, the 2013 Mazda MX-5 Miata is a RWD roadster available in a typical soft-top or power-retractable hard top. This lightweight sports car that boasts "perfect balance� is powered by a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 167 hp and 140 lb-ft of torque. Available transmissions include a 5-speed manual, 6-speed manual, and 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters. All manual transmissions come standard with a short-throw shifter. Fuel mileage is an EPA estimated 21 mpg city and 28 mpg hwy. Features include xenon HID headlights, 17-inch wheels, retractable wind blocker, Club trim, premium sound, limited slip differential, sport-tuned suspension, and Bilstein� shock absorbers. Safety is comprised of advanced airbags, anti-lock braking, electronic brake force distribution, brake assist, dynamic stability control, traction control, and tire pressure monitoring. The MX-5 Miata is backed by a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty.

Benefits of Driving a 2013 Mazda Miata MX5 Convertible

The Miata is one of the most fun cars on the road for under $30,000. Great handling, solid performance and an excellent standard equipment list all add up to an extraordinary amount of value been packed into the diminutive 2-seater. On top of that, it gets great mileage and is capable of 28 mpg on the freeway.

What's new for 2013?

The Miata gets a nice refresh for the 2013 model year. The most noticeable change is a much more aggressive front fascia on the car, giving it a meaner and sportier look. The mid-level Touring trim has been discontinued and replaced with the Club trim. While the Touring trim looked to add luxury items to the base Miata, the Club trim concentrates more on performance and sporty looks, with a more aggressive suspension package, gunmetal wheels and black exterior accents.

Model Strengths

Roadster fun without a hefty price tag
great gas mileage for a sports car
available retractable hard top

Model Review

The Miata's 2.0L 4-cylinder engine comes with one of three transmission choices; a 5-speed manual, a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic. With either of the manual transmissions the engine makes 167 horsepower, equipped with the automatic it makes 158. Don't be fooled by what seem like small numbers--the MX-5's diminutive size and weight means it's going to be plenty fast.

Original Warranty Original Warranty An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment. The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including: Basic Warranty: Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters. Drivetrain Warranty: This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be. Roadside Assistance: The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car. Corrosion Warranty: This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal. Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.	Miles	Months

Mazda Certified Pre-Owned Warranty Certified Pre-Owned Warranty To be eligible for Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status, vehicles generally must be recent models with relatively low mileage. CPO vehicles must also pass a detailed inspection, outlined by the manufacturer, which is measured by the number of inspected points. Warranty coverage can vary from one manufacturer to the next. While most certified pre-owned programs transfer and extend the existing new car warranty terms, others offer a warranty that simply represents an additional year and mileage value. Always check with the manufacturer for the specific warranties they offer. Common features and benefits of Certified Pre-Owned warranties include: Age/Mileage Eligibility To even be considered for certification, a car must be a recent model year and have limited mileage. The exact requirements are established by individual manufacturers. Lease Term Certified Some manufacturers offer certified pre-owned cars for lease. The length of the lease is often shorter than a new car lease, but it will cost you less. Point Inspection These inspections entail a comprehensive vehicle test to ensure that all parts are in excellent working order. The point inspection list is simply a numbered list of exactly what parts of the car are examined. While many inspections range from a 70- to 150-point checklist, most are very similar and are performed using strict guidelines. Ask your local dealer about specific details. Return/Exchange Program Some manufacturers offer a very limited return or exchange period. Find out if you will get the sales tax and licensing/registration fees back should you return or exchange the car. Roadside Assistance Most certified pre-owned programs offer free roadside service in case your car breaks down while still under warranty. Special Financing Reduced-rate loans are available through many certified pre-owned programs. Manufacturer-backed inspections and warranties help eliminate the risks involved with buying pre-owned, so buyers who qualify can take advantage of the great offers. Transferable Warranty When a new car warranty transfers with the certification of the car and remains eligible for the next owner, it is known as a transferable warranty. Once the original transferable warranty expires, an extended warranty takes effect. Warranty Deductible This is the amount for which you are responsible when repair work is performed under the warranty. Some manufacturers require a deductible while others don't, so always ask.
