1989 Used Cars For Sale Mazda MX-5
The Mazda MX-5 is a popular sports car built by Mazda in Hiroshima, Japan, since 1989. It is known as MX-5 Miata (or popularly just Miata) in North America, MX-5 in Oceania and Europe, and Roadster (under the Eunos marque until 1996) in Japan. The MX-5 is one of the world's best-selling sports cars, with 748,904 cars sold until the end of 2005. Beginning with the third-generation 2006 model, Mazda consolidated worldwide (excluding Japan) marketing using the MX-5 name, though enthusiasts in the USA (and the company itself) still refer to it as Miata, a name that means "reward" in Old High German.
The MX-5 was envisioned by its designers as a small roadster with a minimum of unnecessary weight and complexity, a direct descendant of the small British roadsters of the 1960s such as the Triumph Spitfire, MG Midget, Lotus Elan, and Porsche 550 Spider.
By the early 1980s, roadsters had all but vanished from the market, sacrificed to the increasing safety and anti-pollution regulations everywhere. The MX-5 would thus mark the return of the roadster, using modern technology allied to the tradition of the roadster type. As a result, the MX-5 has a traditional FR (front-engine, rear-wheel-drive) layout and 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension. It comes with a longitudinally mounted four cylinder engine coupled to a manual transmission (an automatic transmission is available as an option).

The 1970 240Z was introduced to the American market by Yutaka Katayama, president of Nissan Motors USA operations, widely known as Mr.K.
Front disc brakes and rear drums were standard. A 4-wheel independent suspension consisted of MacPherson struts in front (borrowed from the Datsun Laurel C30) and Chapman struts in back. A less common 3-speed automatic transmission was optional from 1971 on, and had a "Nissan Full Automatic" badge. The engine, based on the Datsun 510's 4-cylinder, produced 150 hp (112 kW) and came with a 5-speed manual transmission (240Z models received the L24 2.4 litre engine and a 4-speed manual). The Fairlady Z was introduced in late 1969 as a 1970 model, with the L20A 2.0 litre straight-6 SOHC engine, rear wheel drive, and a stylish coupe body.

Luxury Used Cars GMC Envoy Denali 2005
A 'MidGate' could be raised to partition the load area off from the passenger compartment; this was solid and plastic-lined to waist height and with a It featured a retractable rear roof section that slid forward, giving an open-topped load area. The five-passenger Envoy XUV, introduced in 2003, was an attempt to create a crossbreed of pickup truck and SUV. The Envoy XL will be replaced by the Acadia for 2007. The XL model ceased to exist after the 2006 model year, because the plant there then closed on February 20, 2006.
Production of the XL model was handled by the Oklahoma City Assembly plant in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This roof is disguised by standard roof racks. This vehicle is 16 in (406 mm) longer and has a higher roofline to allow easier access to the third row of seats. One unique element of the Envoy was the availability of a 3-row 7-passenger Envoy XL version. The 4200 Vortec I6 engine has been named to Ward's 10 Best Engines list annually since its introduction.
The Envoy was Motor Trend magazine's Sport/Utility of the Year for 2002. A Displacement on Demand 5.3 L V8 was used beginning in 2005. All Envoys have 4-wheel disc brakes. This rating grew to 291 hp for the 2006 model year. Early versions used the 270 hp (201 kW) Vortec 4200 engine, while later Envoys stepped up to 275 hp (205 kW).
