#390 of 529 Re: No Spare Tire? [aviboy97] by ateixeira Mar 18, 2008 (7:03 am)
Replying to: aviboy97 (Mar 17, 2008 8:17 pm) I have to agree. Never used my spare.   In fact one time I checked and my spare was flat. Oops. Wouldn't even had been useful if I did get a flat.   I've only taken it out of town twice, to the beach, about 150 miles away. I doubt I'll do that again. It's cramped for long trips like that.
#391 of 529 Auction by aviboy97 Mar 19, 2008 (7:13 am)
Yesterday, our dealership participated in an auction simulcast over the internet. It was held by Mazda for Mazda dealers only. These were Mazda exec. cars. We targeted numerous vehicle, including MX-5's, and they were going to STUPID money. We are talking about $3,000 to $4,000 OVER Glaves value, which is over retail!! Needless to say, we could not buy any. Replies to this message: ateixeira (Mar 19, 2008 7:15 am) aviboy97 (Mar 19, 2008 9:02 am) ateixeira (Mar 19, 2008 10:12 am) and 1 more...

Replying to: aviboy97 (Mar 19, 2008 7:13 am) Bummer, so no price drop on used 2006s.   It's OK, my 93 is still running great. I can wait. Replies to this message: aviboy97 (Mar 19, 2008 9:02 am) ateixeira (Mar 19, 2008 10:12 am) aviboy97 (Mar 20, 2008 6:40 pm)

Replying to: ateixeira (Mar 19, 2008 7:15 am) Best bet is still lease turn ins. They are popping up. These Mazda program vehicles, like what we tried to get yesterday, go for too much. Replies to this message: ateixeira (Mar 19, 2008 10:12 am) aviboy97 (Mar 20, 2008 6:40 pm)

Replying to: aviboy97 (Mar 19, 2008 9:02 am) Are those from Manheim? They get the cream of the crop. Replies to this message: aviboy97 (Mar 20, 2008 6:40 pm)

Replying to: ateixeira (Mar 19, 2008 10:12 am) Yeah, the auction was held at Manheim for Mazda, out in CA. All were top line merchandise, in basically pristine condition.
#396 of 529 Re: Run Flats [bodega] by redmx Mar 24, 2008 (5:57 am)
Replying to: bodega (Oct 24, 2007 4:40 pm) Be glad that you didn't get run flats. I test drove one at the dealer the day I bought my MX-5. They are VERY noisy and feels like you are riding on solid rubber tires. I had Goodyear runflats on my Vette. They came O.E. and I couldn't wait to get them off.

Replying to: white_miata06 (Feb 25, 2008 12:22 pm) I know what you mean about the car feeling like it is going faster than it is.I have a speed 6 that really flies and im constantly exceeding the speed limit-I just bought an 08 touring with 6 speed and i find myself going slightly under the speed limit quite a bit of the time. This could be a good thing if it avoids some tickets. The car is a blast so far-had the top down a few times and it is really fun to drive.Enjoy your car!
#398 of 529 winter tires by robger99 Apr 11, 2008 (4:42 am)
Just got an 08 touring with 17" run flats. Have a buddy at work who will sell me a set of four 16" winter tires on rims for $100.00- only used one season on his bmw. Im assuming these should fit because the base tires are 16" right? Any input appreciated.
