Up for auction is a 1982 Mazda RX7 GSL.  After 31 years (yes, I’m the original owner ) of taking up space in my garage and hearing my wife complain, it’s time to find the RX7 a new home…  I purchased the car new in 1982, used it sparingly for about three years then decided I wanted to create a show car. After about a years’ time in putting it together, followed by sometime on the local circuit, the car has remained under wraps in my garage. The RX7 has been a garage queen all its life… It’s never seen snow and as of last 5 – 10 years only taken out of the garage every other week to keep the fluids flowing. With a little TLC this vehicle could get back to show quality, turned into a weekend warrior or full blown track car.

I’ll highlight some of things that were done to the car:

·         Purchased 5-1982 and has 15,416 mile on the car. Yes, that’s original miles on the car and the replace motor has just over 14,000 on it. The speedometer was sent out to Rotary Engineering for 130 MPH recalibration.

·         Car is in excellent condition for being 31 years old. No rust on

·         Motor- “Rotary Engineering’s Turbo Alternative” 13B  225HP Twin 36 DCD Carbs

·         High performance clutch and Flywheel

·         Body- Kent Racing Wide Body kit from Creative car products- Installed by Autotrix in NY

·         Rims- Epsilon 15/10’s and 15/8’s

·         Tires- 225-50-15F Dunlop’s Qualifiers (replaced 6 years ago) 265-50-15R BF Goodrich Comp TA’s

·         Custom Stereo System with built in Escort radar detector. Yes, it and 80’s car… Back then it was the best of the best.

·         Koni race strut and sway bars

·         Lamb’s wool seat covers installed when the car was new.

 What the car needs…

·         The combination switch will need to be replaced. No High beams.

·         Rear tires are 28 years old and in need of replacing.

·         Spider crack in paint on rear whale tail. See picture.

·         Interior dome light lens needs replacing

·         Needs a tune up and jets cleaned

·         Rear speakers may need replacing

·         My son’s bike fell over and hit the hood of the car. The small dent was repaired by a local body shop but it might need to be touched up to get back to show quality. The average eye won’t notice it.

·         AC does work, but I took the belt off of the compressor years ago to take advantage of power gains with the motor.

·         Car is in excellent condition for a vehicle 31 years old…

The car is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied. I have done my best to disclose any known defects associated with the vehicle and will address any potential buyer’s requests prior to the close of this auction.

I will require a $500.00 non-refundable deposit within 24 hours of winning the auction. It will be the responsibility of the buyer to arrange for pick-up/delivery of the vehicle. Inspections can be performed prior to the auction close. Please don’t hesitate to ask questions. I reserve the right to end the auction early due to selling the vehicle locally. Good luck and happy bidding!

2014 Mazda Skyactiv Prototype looks ready for Daytona

Fri, 17 Jan 2014

With less than two weeks before the Mazda Skyactiv Prototype makes its race debut at the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, the Japanese Zoom-Zoom brand brought its diesel-powered racer to the floor of the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
The red prototype marks Mazda's return to prototype racing, and will campaign the inaugural Tudor United SportsCar Championship using a 2.2-liter, SkyActiv-D diesel engine. With 451 horsepower on tap and 580 pound-feet of torque, the racer should stand up well against a field of gas-powered competitors.
Should the Skyactiv win Daytona, it'll be a coup for Mazda. The racer is running an engine with over 50 percent of its parts drawn from the oft-delayed production Skyactiv-D. Head up top for our full gallery of images of the new Skyactiv Prototype. The 2014 Rolex 24 will be run from January 25 to 26.

Mazda planning 'aggressive' dealer shakeup

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

Mazda has set an ambitious goal of selling 400,000 units by the end of the 2015 Japanese fiscal year in March 2016, and to do that, it's going to need to take some aggressive action. That means that underperforming members of its 637-showroom strong dealer network are about to get the axe.
The purge won't just be limited to dealers that aren't performing, though. Mazda will seek to consolidate poorly located dealers and build new showrooms in better locations. It still isn't clear how many dealers are being targeted or at what point Mazda would end its cull.
This consolidation of dealers is all part of a one-two punch for the Japanese brand, that will also see increased marketing efforts in 35 key areas. Of those markets, Mazda is placing a special emphasis on New York and LA, although there's not much mention of what other regions are being looked at.

Mazda Koeru concept forecasts next CX-9 in sleek form

Wed, Sep 16 2015

Mazda rolled in to the Frankfurt Motor Show this year with the Koeru concept you see here. The showpiece is the latest embodiment of the Japanese brand's Kodo design language, applied with dramatic effect to a large crossover shape. Could this preview the next CX-9? The Koeru takes its name from the Japanese verb for "going beyond," and the reason is plain to see: though created by a mass-market brand, the concept could easily belong to an upscale marque like Infiniti (which offers a range of crossovers), Jaguar (which just revealed its first), or Maserati (which is preparing to get in on the action as well). It strikes us as aggressive as it is elegant, with taut lines and sporty details from the sharp lights to the muscular wheel arches. Few technical details as to what lies underneath it all were made available. And these show cars often lack working underpinnings to speak of anyway. But Mazda says that, beyond the styling, it optimized the aerodynamics over the upper body as well as underneath it to reduce turbulence and "enhance vehicle stability when driving at speed." It's also said to encompass the company's latest Skyactiv, i-Activesense, and Mazda Connect technologies. Which is all well and fine, but we're looking forward to seeing what innovations the company might incorporate if and when the Koeru (hopefully) transitions from concept to reality. In the meantime you can scope it out in the live and stock image galleries above and below. MAZDA KOERU The all-new crossover concept proposed by Mazda Mazda Motor Corporation is unveiling the all-new crossover concept Mazda KOERU for the world premiere at the Frankfurt Motor Show this year. The Mazda KOERU demonstrates Mazda's unique and daring interpretation of a crossover vehicle, proposed for the fast-growing crossover market. Featuring the full suite of Mazda's new-generation SKYACTIV technologies and designed under the KODO—Soul of Motion design language, the concept offers sporty yet delightfully refined styling and driving performance. The name "KOERU", which literally means "exceed" or "go beyond" in Japanese, comes from Mazda's aspiration to deliver value that goes well beyond the existing category norms and standards. As the latest incarnation of Mazda's new-generation products, the Mazda KOERU crossover concept offers styling that exudes power, vitality and a new level of polished refinement.
