Replying to: milkey (Mar 11, 2008 3:55 pm) You may not even have to pay for a donut spare. I went to the county recylcing center to drop off some old metal, and saw a large pile of donut spares right there in the open, up for grabs. Just make sure you know the size you need, and the bolt pattern. I think it's 4x100mm for mine, but other model years may be different.

Replying to: milkey (Mar 11, 2008 6:44 pm) With the purchase they gave me the 3 year roadside and my wife just told me that with the extended warranty I purchased it got extended also. Still gonna go out and get a donut for the trunk, I might not carry it all the time but my trips to northern Wisc, Minneapolis and Colorado I will feel much better and I think I should be able to get my fishing poles in the trunk with it

Replying to: milkey (Mar 11, 2008 6:44 pm) There is a brochure in the car papers when you buy the car. I remember it being 3 years. Hope I never have to use it.

Replying to: milkey (Mar 11, 2008 7:00 pm) Yeah, the 2006+ MX-5's don't come with a spare, however, it does come with a tire inflation kit. As long as you do not blow out your side wall, you can re inflate it. If you happen to blow out your side wall, and destroy your tire, call 24/7 roadside assistance that Mazda gives you with your purchase, and you get free towing to the nearest Mazda dealer.

#381 of 529 Looking for a pre-owned NC MX-5? by aviboy97 Mar 16, 2008 (7:15 pm)
I remember a few of people here have expressed interest in looking for pre owned NC Miatas. I want to let you know that there have been a lot of lease turn ins that Mazda is taking back. Back in 2006, Mazda did an abundance of 24 month leases. Check with your local Mazda dealer, and ask them about any lease turn ins. Mazda has an online auction, like eBay, for all it's dealers for lease turn ins. I have noticed an abundance of MX-5's pop up as of late. We just purchased a few ourselves.

Replying to: aviboy97 (Mar 16, 2008 7:09 pm) That's exactly what came on mine and I have the kit in the trunk. I like them, but hear they are expensive to replace?

Replying to: aviboy97 (Mar 16, 2008 7:15 pm) Thanks. I am looking, though probably not until July or so. I'll do another search. I've seen the 06s dip to about $17k. I did find one gem a couple of weeks ago, it was a leather-lined loaded up model with something like 8k miles. I should have jumped on it. I just wasn't planning on buying until later this year. I'm keeping my eye out for bargains like that. Where is your dealer? You're up in New England, right?

Replying to: ateixeira (Mar 17, 2008 7:58 am) Yeah, I'm in CT, about 40 minutes from NYC. Just to give you an idea of where they are price wise, we bought a 2006 MX-5 Touring (cloth interior, power options, 16" wheels) 5-speed tranny with 9,500 miles for. We are asking $17,990 with a Certified Pre-Owned Mazda warranty (8yr-100,000K) This should be the price according to Edmunds. link title Replies to this message: ateixeira (Mar 17, 2008 12:17 pm) aviboy97 (Mar 17, 2008 12:19 pm)

Replying to: aviboy97 (Mar 17, 2008 12:14 pm) Fair price since it's CPO. Not sure when we're heading up to CT to visit the in-laws, but maybe I'll drop by your dealership if it's on my way. We may go this summer. They are in Norwalk. My brother-in-law is in Milford. Is either place close? Replies to this message: aviboy97 (Mar 17, 2008 12:19 pm)

Replying to: ateixeira (Mar 17, 2008 12:17 pm) Milford and Norwalk are about 30 minutes from me. I'm located in Danbury.
