A 1999 Mazda MX-5 Miata with just 20,000 miles on the odometer is being offered for sale, presented as a well-maintained example of the second-generation NB model. The car was first delivered to Cascade Mazda in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, and the current seller acquired it in 2026.
Under the present ownership, the car has received a substantial round of mechanical work. The brake and coolant systems have been overhauled, and the timing belt, tensioner, crankshaft and camshaft seals, valve cover gasket and drive belts for the 1.8-litre inline-four have all been replaced. The timing-belt service was completed in July 2026, when the water pump, thermostat and radiator hoses were also renewed. A Mishimoto radiator has been fitted. In the same year the brake rotors and pads were replaced, the brake fluid was flushed, and stainless-steel brake lines were installed.
The engine is a 1.8-litre DOHC inline-four that was rated at the factory for 140 horsepower and 119 lb-ft of torque. Power reaches the rear wheels through the five-speed manual gearbox and a Torsen limited-slip differential, and both received fluid changes in 2026. The car is also fitted with power-assisted steering, which the listing notes as part of its standard specification. The leather-wrapped Nardi steering wheel frames a speedometer calibrated to 150 mph and a tachometer with a 7,000-rpm redline, alongside gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer reads 20,000 miles.
The car is finished in Brilliant Black over tan leather and is equipped with a tan soft top, a convertible top boot and a heated glass rear window. Exterior details include a front air dam, a power antenna and painted mirror caps. The bucket seats are trimmed in tan leather, and the lower dashboard, door panels and carpets are colour-matched to the interior. The 15-inch Konig Ultra Racing multi-spoke wheels are wrapped in Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 tyres. Comfort and convenience equipment includes air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, a wind deflector, a Bose sound system and a CD and cassette stereo.
Cosmetic wear is noted in the listing. Paint chips, scratches and dings are visible on the bonnet and boot lid, and there are scrapes on the underside of the front bumper cover. The NB generation arrived for the 1999 model year with updated styling, including fixed headlamps and wider bodywork, and this example retains those features.
The seller is offering the car with its window sticker, owner's manuals, service records, cloth seat covers and a car cover. The window sticker records initial delivery to Cascade Mazda of Cuyahoga Falls, lists the factory colours and options, and shows a total vehicle price of $26,675. The Carfax report is clean and shows no accidents or damage, and the North Carolina title is clean and held in the seller's name.
