1990 Mazda Rx-7 Convertible on 2040-cars
Harrisville, Rhode Island, United States
I am going to try and sell my 1990 RX7 Convertible N/A 5 speed. The car
is overall in good shape, it has normal wear for being 23 years old, meaning really small dings or other marks here or there still. Still looks very sharp though, and the interior is very clean. The top has a really small tear on each side right after the doors where the top folds. The tears are not really noticeable and not really a problem because of where they are it does not let water or anything in. 117,819
miles. Never driven in winter, and there is no rust problem under the car.
The car can be started and run for testing, but it cannot be driven. The main issue is that the coolant system is over pressurized, so a little after it hits operating temp the coolant will be forced out the overflow tank. It does not over heat, but you can hear the coolant boil in the system. From what I think, exhaust gases are getting into the coolant. I am not really an expert and only really work on motorcycles, so I am out of my league working on a rotary engine. The upper rad hose, rad cap, thermostat, are all new. The compression on both rotors is good. The convertible top is in good condition, along with the top's motors, and everything else like windows and heat and air conditioning work as they should. I used to have an after market stereo in there so the stock one is in now but not connected up. It works, but the headrest speakers will have to be reconnected to the assembly. 5 speed shifts well, no slipping. Title is clear, though I cant seem to find it but I have the registration. If title is needed I can get a duplicate. Two other small problems are that the oil pressure gauge reads 0, but that is not the case. Probably needs a new sensor because I tried cleaning the wire. The trunk hydraulics that keep it open are going, so you need to hold the trunk open sometimes. It has after market mufflers (duel) and a custom pipe from the cat back. It is not loud, but it is a nice low refined sound. I was planning on having it fixed but am going to be moving out of state within a a year, so I do not have the money to fix it, and cant really take it with me. Looking for $2,000 obo. Any other questions just ask and I will try and answer. Thank You for looking. |

Mazda reports highest profits in its 94-year history
Fri, 25 Apr 2014We 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.
Fiat reconsidering Mazda-based Alfa Romeo roadster? [w/poll]
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Alfa giveth and Alfa taketh away. With apologies to Job (he has gone through a lot, after all), that's how things are looking at the Italian automaker - whether it's the promise of new products or its impending return to the North American market. But it's especially true when it comes to new roadsters.
While Alfa Romeo is expected to unveil the 4C Spider at the Geneva Motor Show this week, reports are now suggesting that its other roadster project is being called into question. That project is a joint venture between Fiat and Mazda, which was set to produce a version of its next MX-5 Miata as an Alfa Romeo, and was even changing the design to accommodate Alfa's requirements.
Now it appears, however, that the whole project in doubt. The problem seems to stem from Sergio Marchionne's pronouncements that, as long as he's in charge, there won't be an Alfa Romeo built outside of Italy.
Junkyard Gem: 2004 Mazda RX-8
Tue, Oct 4 2016You know when a type of vehicle has reached its value tipping point (where it's not worth fixing up a broken or crashed one) when examples of it begin showing up in the big American self-service wrecking yards. During 2016, the BMW Z3 and Mazda RX-8 reached that point and began to appear, just one at a time, here and there, but obviously they were the advance scouts for many to follow. Such cars usually get picked over in a hurry ... at first. Here's a well-stripped example of a first-year RX-8 I found earlier this year in a Denver yard. Some RX-7 owner probably nabbed the Renesis engine right away, and then the guys who grab late-model parts to flog on eBay were next. Still, plenty of interesting components remained on this car when I photographed it, and RX-8s that end up here in a year or two won't get swarmed by the vultures anywhere near as quickly. Does that mean that RX-8s are now cheap enough to race in the 24 Hours of LeMons? Could be!
