This 2005 Mazda Mazdaspeed Miata was sold new at Mazda of Thousand Oaks in Thousand Oaks, California and remained with its first owner until being acquired by the seller on BaT in April 2017. The car is finished in Orange Lava Mica over black leather and is powered by a turbocharged and intercooled 1.8-liter inline-four paired with a six-speed manual transmission. Modifications performed in November 2017 included the installation of Koni shocks, a Flyin’ Miata brake kit, and a roll bar. This Miata shows 78k miles and is offered with a window sticker, service records, factory literature, a boot cover, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Maryland title in the seller’s name.

The exterior is finished in Lava Orange Mica and features Mazdaspeed front and rear under spoilers, a rear deck spoiler, smoked halogen headlights, fog lamps, and Mazdaspeed badging. A Hard Dog roll bar has been added.

Factory 17″ Racing Hart alloy wheels wear Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 tires mounted in May 2017. The black soft top features a defogger-equipped glass rear window and resides under a detachable boot cover when stowed.

The cabin features black leather seats with silver stitching, stainless steel scuff plates, an aluminum pedal set, Mazdaspeed floor mats, and a Bose in-dash six-disc CD stereo. The steering wheel, shift knob, and hand brake handle are also wrapped in leather. Wear is noted on the driver’s seat bolster. The digital odometer shows 78k miles, 600 of which were added by the seller.
