1979 Mazda Rx-7 S Coupe 2-door 1.1l on 2040-cars
Lafayette, New Jersey, United States
For sale: 1979 Mazda RX7. All original, interior, paint, wheel, etc. This car is as when purchased new. This car is automatic with 35,825 original miles; color is white and has a sunroof. One adult owned. I only transferred title to my name. As I know, the car spent most of its life garaged and while I've been in possession of her she has remained garaged. She has not been modified or altered. The paint is all-original. There are several spots that appear to have been touched up prior to me. There is a small spot of rust by the rear hatchback. The interior is original. There are a couple of spots in the interior that show wear, more specifically a seam and cut. I purchased the trim for the door handle pulls, but have not installed them. I periodically run, wash and clean the interior; she isn't taken out and driven. The Paint is original but is not as shinny as when new. There is only slight surface rust on the frame rails as far as I can see. For the age, she is quite clean. The engine is unmodified and stock. I replaced the battery with a Diehard Gold. Tires are in great shape as they have extremely low miles by the amount of tread remaining. The spare is full size and has the same rim as pictured on the car. The car does come with factory air conditioning, but needs a recharge/servicing. Am/Fm radio, manual steering. One of the retractable headlight motors does not operate,
but does rotate freely and can be manually deployed. All the lighting interior
and exterior operates as it should. Not pictured is the rear louver that came with the car. It currently is not on the car and needs to have the hinges repaired. The hinges were damaged during its transportation to me. Overall the car is a good example of what the car looked liked when new. The RX7 was originally purchased in California. Since taking possession of her I have kept her in running order. However I do not drive the vehicle. I have garage kept her in the same location and the stall where she lives and does not show any fluid on the concrete. The rear axle differential area is moist, but no drips, but I don't know if that was from a previous servicing or the oil wicking. I have not inspected the brakes but in the short driving around the block they have worked fine and did not pull at that time. I have the owners Log Book,Manufacturer's Limited warranty and service book and the owners manual. All manuals are original. I only have one set of keys and the main key does show Mazda. I could not confirm it is the original. The only records I have are what is listed in the service book. Since the car only has 35,825 mile, the last entry was on 5/16/83. I was not given any other records for maintenance services. (I also have the original invoice.) I only titled the vehicle in my state. It has not been through any state inspection in the recent few years. It was last titled and registered in Connecticut (approx. 2002). If you wanted to inspect the car, it can be arranged. Please inspect the photos. I've tried to represent the condition as best one can, but it is best, as you know, to inspect the vehicle in person! (Questions, please give 48 hours to get back, usually it is much sooner!) The RX7 is available for inspection. For additional pictures: m.flickr.com/#/photos/flying480/sets/72157630985748062/ |

Lexus, Mazda win KBB 5-Year Cost To Own Awards
Wed, 05 Feb 2014We focus a lot on what new cars are like to drive, but it's difficult on a one-week loan to really get a sense of what a car is like to live with. Sure, we try to recreate that sense with our long-term vehicles, but even after a year, it's impossible to know fully learn about a car, particularly in terms of reliability and cost of repairs. For 2014 model year vehicles, Kelley Blue Book has put together a list of the most affordable vehicles over a five-year period.
At the tippy top of the list are Mazda and Lexus, with the Zoom-Zoom automaker winning the award for best non-luxury brand. Lexus, meanwhile, was the most affordable luxury marque over a five-year period. It's interesting to note, though, that not a single Mazda won its segment in this year's awards.
General Motors did quite well, taking eight segments, including both the subcompact and plug-in segments, with the gas-powered Chevrolet Spark and Spark EV. The Chevy Camaro SS and ZL1 took the high-performance car award. Toyota was well represented, with five winners split between the main brand (Corolla, Prius C and Tacoma) and Lexus (LS and RX).
2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata reveal livestream is here and now
Wed, 03 Sep 2014Let's not understate the significance and difficulty of what's been accomplished here. In this ever-connected, constantly surveilled modern auto industry, Mazda has pulled a coup - it's kept a new vehicle under wraps. Yes, we've seen hacked up and camouflaged mules and maybe a form under a sheet, but Mazda is about to reveal its next-generation MX-5 Miata, and the car - let alone its specifications - hasn't been leaked anywhere yet. Not via clandestine camera phone snapshot, not by patent drawing, not by leaked ad copy, not even by diecast model. Believe us, we've looked.
And this isn't just some humdrum crossover or workaday compact, it's the Miata, the world's most popular roadster, apple of the enthusiast community's eye and seeming center of gravity for the Japanese automaker. For those who are genuinely excited about cars - about motoring - this is an impressive feat. If anything, Mazda's radio silence regarding the fourth-generation ND Miata has only served to heighten our anticipation for a model that probably won't reach showrooms for another year.
So, what's true and what's false among all the rumors? Will the already lightweight Miata really shed hundreds of pounds? What exactly will live under hood and drive those rear wheels?
2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]
Wed, 12 Dec 20122012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:
