1995 Mazda Rx-7 Base Coupe 2-door 1.3l on 2040-cars
Billings, Montana, United States
Hey! Up for sale is what most consider to be one of the few real sports cars. This 1995 Mazda Rx7 is a true example, with only minor improvements made. 66,4xx miles. As a silver 95 base, it is one of six imported in 1995 with those options (see photos for import numbers) and 1 of a mere 500 total imported 95 Rx7’s. Pair that with a VIN ending in 529, and you may very well be looking at the last FD brought to the US. Extremely rare, and in incredible condition. The interior shows little to no wear. A couple minor blemishes, such as the power mirror control having a loose mounting tab, and the stock shift knob showing wear for an almost 20 year old car. The previous owner also installed keyless entry, which was a custom job due to there not being a motor in the door to do so. One was added, and is nice to have! The driver’s floor mat had seen better days, I just haven’t sourced a new one yet. Currently there is a SakeBomb Garage footrest in the passenger side. This is a design piece that came from the newer Rx7’s in Japan. It is easily removable, and may be removed and sold separately depending on final price. Controlling this car currently is an Apexi Power FC with controller. There’s not too many great options for mounting the controller, so as you can see in pictures, it props up nicely in the coin holder. This gives you the ability to monitor and tune on the fly, and lets you keep an eye on up to 8 aspects of the motor. This is also an easy removal, and again, depending on price may be switched back to the stock computer. The original owner’s manual, and all paperwork are intact and accounted for. The stock amp died in the head unit, so I did a thorough Kenwood upgrade. Head unit, followed by speakers front and rear. Total for the system was over 1k. Come to find out, the speakers had already been replaced by a previous owner, but with the head unit bad, I had no idea, and continued with my install. Could use a subwoofer at some point, but really, this is a sports car, not a concert hall. Sound deadener would be a huge improvement, but I drive more with the radio off, and the incredible symphony of the motor more than music playing. The exterior has brand new paint, literally completed on 9/19/13. The paint was neglected, and in need of a refresh. It is glass smooth, and has an intense mirror finish. As you can see from the pictures, the fit and finish of every single panel is second to none. The gaps, and alignment are absolutely spot on. When the car was in the body shop, I opted for tail lights from a 2001 rx7 straight from Japan, giving it a much more modern appearance, as well as APR carbon fiber mirrors. All bulbs on the exterior have been upgraded to high end LED bulbs, as well as the interior dome and rear hatch light. I modified the stock turn signal relay to accept LED lighting to remove the hyper flash that is common with lower wattage led lighting. Headlights have also been upgraded. All the corner lights as well as the front turn signals are tinted. I did not, however, tint the stock reflectors, I still have them. I just bought an aftermarket set to tint. The wheels are stock, but have essentially brand new bridgstone potenzas. The previous owner had about 800 miles on them, and I have about a 1000 miles total since I bought the car. The engine is relatively stock. No crazy porting, no running issues whatsoever. It also has a fresh tune up, including spark plugs, plug wires, fuel filter, air filter, and an oil change. Essential parts of owning a rotary. Also, a carbon fiber cooling panel was just added yesterday actually (9/20) to aid in air flow, and improve under hood appearance. The panel is a very simple piece that essentially just sets in place. The stock part is available. The exhaust was upgraded by a previous owner to a Blitz Nur Spec system. In my opinion, it sounds amazing. Not whiny or irritating, but deep and aggressive for a rotary. This is a car you literally can walk out to anytime, and it starts right up, no smoke, no hesitation. The suspension has been upgraded by Stance brand coil-overs, custom valved by Rishie at AutoRnD.com. With a many features to give an extremely smooth ride, yet aggressive cornering, this is the best suspension I’ve ever ridden with. The car underwent a full alignment after install, and there is at the most 700 miles on the system. I also added Greddy front and rear strut tower bars, giving increased stability and chassis rigidity. They are sharp, but could use a good polishing/powdercoating. Extras included in the car if the price is right: a full size binder style factory service manual specific to the 95. Also have a small “travel” size service manual. I have the stock radiator cover, as well as the corner lights. The service manuals may or may not be sold separately, if interested parties step forward, but the car parts will remain with the car. Payment is due within 7 days. A $1000.00 dollar deposit is required within 24 hours of the end of the auction, unless other arrangements are made. I am minutes from the local airport, Billings Logan International (BIL), and can pick you up if you decide to fly in and road trip home. Can also help in coordinating shipping, just let me know where to get the car and cover gas to the shipping dock. I do have the title in hand, just have to get a sign off from the local credit union when the note is paid. A few minute deal. |

Tue, May 5 2015Want to be one of the first to buy the fantastic new 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata? Now's your chance. The pre-order books open at 12:00 PM Eastern for the very special Launch Edition, which is limited to just 1,000 units. All of the MX-5 Miata Launch Edition cars come painted in Soul Red with a Sport Tan leather interior, an exclusive combination for this special run. Buyers only need to choose between the six-speed manual transmission (the obvious choice), or a six-speed automatic. Pricing is set at $30,495 if you want the stick-shift, and $31,570 if you prefer the auto. So, want one? Of course you do. Head over to Mazda's pre-order site and place a $500 deposit toward the purchase of your car. Better act fast, though. When Mazda offered its 25th Anniversary MX-5 Miata via pre-order, all 100 of those cars sold out in just ten minutes.
Cars we're thankful we drove in 2019
Thu, Nov 28 2019We drove a lot of cars in 2019, and there's still a month to go. We drove them in our home office in Michigan, at our remote offices in Seattle, Portland, Ore., and Columbus, Ohio, and throughout the globe on myriad press launches. We could count them, but hey, that seems boastful. Instead, we want to be thankful. Not only for the opportunity to do this wonderful task some might describe as a "job," but for the new, shiny cars that brighten our days (and most hopefully yours). We asked our fellow editors which car they were most thankful to drive in 2019 ... here are our answers. 2019 Hyundai Veloster N Performance Senior Editor Alex Kierstein Every once in a while a car comes along that changes the narrative on a company or its segment, and everyone scrambles to experience it for themselves. This year, for me, that car’s the Veloster N Performance, perhaps the most transformative car the companyÂ’s ever built. Everyone whoÂ’s driven it, here and elsewhere, says it captures all those intangibles that make great driving hatchbacks great. And IÂ’m thankful that I got a go in it before all of them left the fleet, because it does. It upends the segment long dominated by the GTI, a car that nails its brief. The N is rowdy and loud, sure, but it also has some of the most deftly tuned suspension IÂ’ve come across in a front driver. My advice: if youÂ’re in the market for something fun and unique, go test drive a Veloster N. I think youÂ’ll be thankful you did. 2019 Hyundai Veloster N View 47 Photos 2019 Audi E-Tron Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder IÂ’m pleased that I got to drive the Audi E-Tron. ThatÂ’s high praise for a year in which I also drove the stellar Jaguar I-Pace. The E-Tron, while not as sporty as the Jaguar, is excellently executed, and feels like a more refined, polished offering. ItÂ’s quick, whisper-quiet, comfortable, stylish inside and out, and incredibly sturdy. Some may lament that it doesnÂ’t do much to stand out from ICE vehicles, but I donÂ’t think it needs to. What it does need to do is win over the electro-skeptical, and I think Audi put its best foot forward with a crossover that can do just that, and more. So, yeah, not only am I thankful that I got to drive it, IÂ’m glad that itÂ’s compelling enough that itÂ’ll hopefully make potential customers feel the same. 2020 Audi E-Tron View 13 Photos 2013 Peugeot 508 West Coast Editor James Riswick My choice totally sucks.
Watch a high-speed chase from a motorcycle-mounted officer's point of view
Sat, 13 Apr 2013Riding a motorcycle through high traffic can be a stressful experience. And we don't even want to imagine what it's like to have to actually pursue someone on a motorcycle. Fortunately, we don't have to. Officer Troy Gurley of the Florence, Alabama police force recently attempted to stop a vehicle for traffic violations. The driver, 24-year-old Justin Sanders, figured he could use his Mazda3 to outrun the bike cop. Turns out, not so much.
Gurley pursued Sanders for nearly five minutes as the Mazda driver ran stop signs, swerved through traffic and raced through residential neighborhoods, but the perpetrator couldn't shake the tenacious and experienced rider. Other units soon joined the pursuit, and Sanders thought it best to leave the protection of his car to attempt to flee on foot. From there, it didn't take officers long to apprehend him. You can watch the video below for yourself.
