CONS

  • Windshield Crack
  • A/C Blows, but not Cold.  Likely needs recharging as it has never been done in 20 years.
  • Original paint.  Looks great but as the standard rock chips, 2-3 small door dings (its an aluminum car) and the mirrors/spoilers fade if not polished regularly (a common problem for the red RX7s)

This car is awesome!  Always garage kept, 1 family owership, NEVER raced, and NEVER wrecked!  It is super fast and turns heads everywhere it goes.  "What kind of car is that?" & "Is that a Ferrari?" are a few of the comments I get.  Nobody who knows what this car is capable of won't even look at you at a red light!  If you know anything about Japanese sports cars, this is THE car to own.  Not even Supras, Sklyines, and NSXs can compare to this car.

So what makes the R1 a better buy than any other RX7?

  1. It is the stripped down race version of the RX7.  No fancy stereo system or sunroof to add weight.  Who needs that crap in a race car???
  2. It came from the factory with a functional front chin spoiler, rear spoiler, and aluminum hood.  Again, strip the weight and get some downforce for high speeds.  Ask anyone who has taken a Touring Edition to 120+ MPH, it gets really squirrelly!  The R1 sticks to the ground like rubber shoe soles on ahot Texas summ day!
  3. Rarity, rarity, rarity!  Only 1177 Red R1's built, 1665 total.  Less than half are on the road today.  And maybe 25% of those are not ragged out, torn up, or non-functionally modded out (riced out).  This is one of them!
  4. It is the fastest production car built in 1993.  Truest 50/50 weight ratio around, suspension to handle the harshest road race courses, and so much power that it could melt you into the seat when you mash the pedal.

This car is a MUST-HAVE for any serious collector!

**There is an interesting story attached to this car. My father bought it brand new in 1994.  The story is that THIS car was used by magazines to test drive. Now, I was never able to find any supporting documents, but if you look at the history of the car, it has an odd anamoly. The date of manufacture is 10/11/1993, which make this one of the last (if not THE last) R1's to roll off the assembly line. The next entry after production shows this car at auction somewhere in the Pacific Southwest. My father purchased the car from Fred Haas Mazda in Houston, TX in mid-1994.    Now, I cannot confirm nor deny any of what I have just disclosed other than what the report says.  My father passed away 10 years ago so the facts of what the story is went with him.**

Mazda2 with extended-range hybrid rotary tech shown

Mon, 23 Dec 2013

Every story dealing with a new rotary engine from Mazda lands in a different place on the matrix of possibilities between "Coming soon!" and "Never gonna happen!" In 2011 it was speculated that the rotary engineering program would be shut down with the demise of the RX-8, in 2012 the program was still alive and taking lessons from the SkyActiv engines, in August 2013 a Mazda insider said a rotary engine called 16X would be here in two years, in November the CEO said the only way we'd ever get a new rotary is if Mazda could sell 100,000 of them per year. Meaning that, for the moment, you can forget about it.
And yet, last month Mazda was putting journalists in a Mazda2 RE Range Extender, an electric car using a 0.33-liter rotary to power its lithium-ion batteries when the charge runs down. With a 75-kilowatt, 100-horsepower electric motor turning the front wheels, the Wankel generator and its 2.6-gallon gas tank living under the trunk double the range of the electric-only Mazda2 to 250 miles.
There's been talk of using a rotary to assist an alt-fuel vehicle for at least seven years, with Mazda pairing an electric motor with a rotary that ran on gas and hydrogen in a Mazda5 in 2007. Since then, almost all of those stories debating its return or demise also spoke of the oddball motor's advantages, such as compact size and ability to run on various fuels, as an aid in an unconventional powertrain.

Mazda CX-5 getting mild refresh

Thu, 14 Aug 2014

Mazda has found both critical and commercial success with its CX-5 small crossover, and seems to be endeavoring to keep the momentum up with an upcoming refresh. As you can extrapolate from the obvious lack of the usual camouflage, the company isn't reinventing anything in the very near future of the CX-5, but it does seem as thought some tweaks are in the works.
Lighting elements fore and aft appear to have gone under the knife, with the front grille and rear fascia also seemingly to be slightly revised. The side mirrors now look slicker and slightly more upscale with their integrated turn signals, as well.
In all, expect a look that's a touch fresher, without being a radical departure from the existing visage.

2016 Mazda CX-5 keeps it simple

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

Take a long, hard look, folks. This is the refreshed 2016 Mazda CX-5, which makes its debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show today. And if you're thinking, "Say, that looks just like the old one," you really aren't alone. The visible updates certainly aren't major - Mazda has instead focused on giving the already-good CX-5 some thoughtful upgrades to make it a more attractive package than ever.
Outside, there are some slight changes to the styling, including new LED light signatures at the front and rear, as well as redesigned foglamp housings. Uplevel models also ride on attractive new 19-inch alloy wheels, with a dark finish.
Under the hood, it's all the same. Mazda's Skyactiv 2.0- and 2.5-liter four-cylinder engines carry over, with 155 and 184 horsepower, respectively. Front-wheel-drive, 2.5-liter models get a small bump in fuel economy, too - the CUV is now rated at 26 miles per gallon city and 33 mpg highway, up from 25/32. Models equipped with the automatic transmission now benefit from different drive modes, as well.
