1993 Mazda Rx7, Florida Car, Lots Of Upgrades on 2040-cars
Naples, Florida, United States
I bought this car for my mid life crisis car to replace the 1993 Rx7 I had back when they were new.
This car is fun to drive but my being older means it kills my back getting in and out of the car and I can't get comfortable, so I will stick to my antique cars for my mid life crisis instead . Some things just are not as much fun the second time around ( like marrying your ex wife again ) and put this up for sale. 1993 Mazda Rx7. In the past year the following have been done; 1. tune up- new platinum plugs, new wires, new coil packs 2. New front and rear cross drilled and slotted brake rotors and pads 3. New Optima battery relocated to the bin behind the driver's seat 4. New aluminum race quality heavy duty radiator + twin fans 5. New aluminum race quality large turbo intercooler 6. New silicone cooling and vacuum hoses 7. New aluminum race quality coolant air tank 8. New APEXi air intake system 9. complete flush and fill of all lubricants and replacing with synthetic fluids 10. New 145 degree thermostat and gasket and water pump 11. New belts 12. New rear strut bar 13. New struts 14. New turn signal / drive lamp assemblies The following need attention: 1. Fuel filler door pops open ( have it temporarily stuck closed so it doesn't open when driving ) and it works as is but it is not a permanent fix 2. Prior owner was in the middle of changing the interior from tan to black, so the carpets,headliner , and back bins are still tan ( which you can leave or change to black to match the rest if you like ). I just left it since it didn't bother me. 3. Odometer just blinked out 2 weeks ago, was at approx. 85,500 - I just bought a replacement dash cluster with a working odo if you want to replace it- it is included 4. black plastic on some inside surfaces such as doors and console needs to be refinished, covered or painted- 5. there are some very minor parking lot dings on the body ( see pictures ) Prior owner did the following. 1. new sound system with amp, head, speakers etc 2. 17 inch rims with matched set of ZR rated Cooper tires - still at least 50 % left 3. they tinted the windows which helps here in Florida 4. upgraded tail light assemblies 5. front air splitter 6. a pillar gauges Since this is now a 21 year old used car, it is sold as is, where is, with no warranties. Wow, 21 years - now I feel even older. Email if you want to see or drive the car |

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?
Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata won't get power folding hardtop
Thu, 11 Sep 2014Following the reveal of the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata, more and more details (and rumors - oh, the rumors) are coming out regarding exactly what's in store when the car finally goes on sale. Our own Chris Paukert had plenty to say about the exterior and interior, and we've now seen the first photo of the engine. But a new report from Automobile sheds even more light on the 2016 Miata - specifically, that the power folding hardtop model won't be available, at least initially.
Automobile reports that the 2016 MX-5 will only be offered with a cloth top, and an insider confirmed that the mechanism is light and accessible enough that it can be raised and lowered with one hand from inside the car. Mazda officials would not comment on the availability of a hardtop in the coming years.
That said, a hardtop Miata isn't out of the question. There will likely be some sort of fixed roof available - even as a one-piece, lift-off accessory - if only for club racing. Also, remember that the current NC Miata's hardtop is the only one on the market that doesn't take up any additional trunk space, so it's an attractive proposition for buyers. Currently, the power hardtop is only offered on the Club and Grand Touring MX-5 Miata trims.
