This 1985 Mazda RX7 GS is a very well preserved car, mechanically perfect and an excellent driver. I am owner number 3 and the car fax supports the mileage of 100,7XX.

The car came to me from a collector car dealer in Boise Idaho and was in well preserved shape. A new radio is the only modifications from stock I’ve noticed and the original stereo, equalizer and cassette come with the car. Here is the list of work beyond oil and filters performed during my ownership:

  • ·      Oil pressure sensor weeping removed and replaced
  • ·      Speedometer cable gaskets at transmission weeping, removed and replaced.
  • ·      Differential drain / fill plug gaskets weeping, removed, replaced refilled with fresh fluid.
  • ·      Transmission exterior shift boot torn, removed and replaced.
  • ·      Tires rotated, balanced, new valve stems installed and raised white letters turned inside.
  • ·      Small dent on top of drivers side front fender repaired by paint free dent removal.
  • ·      Door seals leaking, removed and replaced.
  • ·      Hood support retainer clip missing, replaced.
  • ·      Rear hatch supports weak, replaced.
  • ·      Front wheel bearings loose, preloads reset.
  • ·      Front Shocks worn, replaced with KYB units.
  • ·      Interior shift boot and plastic surround cracked, removed and replaced with new old stock.
  • ·      Clutch chattering when hot, replaced clutch including new friction disk, pressure plate, pilot bearing and release bearing. Flywheel resurfaced at this time, transmission drained and refilled with new gear oil.
  • ·      Air conditioning leaking freon, main hoses removed and replaced. Fresh charge of R12 refrigerant. Blows 38F at the center vent in 75F ambient temperature.
  • ·      Oil injection system tested and shown to be at factory specifications.

There are receipts to document all of this. Every system on the car works, as it should. Currently it wears Idaho plates but on 3/6/14 the car easily passed a California smog inspection, which is good for change of ownership within 60 days.

I find nothing that would make me doubt this is original paint and see no evidence of rust. Ocean Blue Metallic, code L-6, which appears to be a fairly rare one-year only color. There are small chips in the clear coat located on the plastic rear bumpers edge, see pictures.

The grey cloth interior looks incredible, no rips tears or stains. The dash is 100% crack free and all the glass has the original Mazda stamps. Headliner is in great shape with no discoloration or sagging.

I have tried to describe this car as honestly as I can. This RX has been enjoyed and that means the occasional chip and some wear marks but short of a frame off restoration or a museum piece I doubt you can find a cleaner example.

Feel free to contact me, Bill 760-809-9746, with any questions or to view the car. Pre--purchase inspections will be facilitated in the North San Diego County area at your expense only. 

Finally the legal stuff:

·      The car is sold “As is” with no implied or expressed warranty.

·      Seller will help to facilitate shipping but only at buyer’s sole expense.

·      $500.00 due from winning bidder via PayPal within 24 hours of the auction’s end.

·      Balance only via certified check, cash in person or wire transfer within 7 days of auction ending. PayPal will not be accepted for the balance unless seller agrees in advance and buyer pays all associated fees.

Suzuki recalls 2 million cars globally

Wed, Apr 22 2015

Suzuki is recalling two million vehicles across the globe, including a number of Chevrolet Cruze sedans that it builds for General Motors, because the ignition switches may begin to smoke. None of the Cruzes being recalled were sold in the US, though. This recall is limited to the Japanese, European and Australian markets. In Suzuki's home market, 1,873,000 vehicles are being recalled, including the Cruze and a number kei cars built for Mazda (the Carol and AZ-Wagon), as well as the automaker's own Alto, Wagon R and Swift. Affected vehicles were built between 1998 and 2009. The remaining 133,000 vehicles include Cruzes and other Suzuki products sold in Europe and Australia. There have been no reports of injuries or accidents due to the 67 reported incidents, all of which come from the Japanese market, a Suzuki spokesperson told Automotive News. Related Video:

Mazda reports highest profits in its 94-year history

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

We may only be a third of the way through 2014, but for Japanese companies, March 31 marked the end of fiscal 2014, and it was a banner financial year for Mazda's global operations. The Japanese independent saw its highest global operating profits in its nearly 100-year history. Its global operating profits were up a huge 238 percent. Yes, a 238 percent increase over 2012 to 1.36 billion euros ($1.88 billion), eclipsing the brand's previous best year, 2008, by 12 percent. Net earnings, revenue and global sales volume also saw increases over the last fiscal year.
What's most impressive, though, is where Mazda saw improvement. The notoriously rough European market was rather kind to the Zoom-Zoom brand, where sales increased 25 percent to 163,000 units. That figure was bolstered by a 35-percent sales increase in Great Britain and a 20-percent jump in Germany, Europe's two largest markets. Japanese sales, meanwhile, were up a respectable 13 percent, to 244,000 units. In China, Mazda saw a 12 percent bump.
Notice we aren't talking about North American sales? That's because Mazda only saw a moderate, five-percent gain in the New World, with sales climbing to 391,000 units in the US, Canada and Mexico. This is particularly disappointing considering Mazda has launched three critically acclaimed products (CX-5, Mazda6 and most recently, Mazda3) for the North American market over the past two fiscal years. Still, it isn't a particular reason to be concerned, as IHS industry analyst Stephanie Brinley notes. "Five percent isn't terrible," Brinley told Autoblog, saying that Mazda should see a bump in 2014 as the Mazda3 picks up steam.
