Car is being sold with 2 engines. The engine described below and all the fabrication was done by Mike Essa, Formula Drift Champion, 2013. The raced out motor needs a partial rebuild, pinched seal, easy fix, I was quoted $450 in a known rotary shop in the Southern California area,  you'll need the new corner seals, and a net seat of water and oil seals, apex seals are brand spanking new, seals are Hurley 2MM large street port, and exhaust is ported brand new, less than 100 miles.  The engine is painted blue, and chromed out at the front, middle and rear housings. Engine is a 1991 13B turbo 2 block. Rebuilt from a JSPEC motor. 


The other engine that this deal comes with is a running 13B Turbo, 91 Block, JSPEC Block. Plug and play. Engine is running, used. Low miles, perfect running block, while you get the other finalized, Car is worth over 25K. All the parts in the car are brand new, with the exception of the used turbo block. 


I'm second owner, I've owned it since 44K miles, now it has 76K miles, no accidents, all original body, minor scratches, minor dime sized dings. No Bondo, virtually no rust, California Car, I'm second owner, this car has not seen rain in all of my years as the owner, the vehicle's body is is great-overall condition, for being over 40 years old. About the car, Interior is all complete, and in great condition, I don't have the original carpet, or the original seats, everything else is original, exterior, I don't have the front or rear big-bumpers. I have the grill, I had to take it out due to the oversized 3.5 inch thick spearco core intercooler. I have the bezels as well. 


All the windows roll down, doors close perfectly good, no body misalignment issues, vehicle is completely underpriced. 


Other original parts from this car, - Original 3 keys, AutoMatic Transmission, -original dual exhaust, ac/condenser unit, original stock wheels in the rear, original rear seats, original gas tank, original gas/air separator, original emblems for rear, and side, and on the grill.-original grill, 12a blue Japanese air filter cover, original 12a distributor electric. Shipping will be at buyers expense for all the extra parts that I'm including in this deal. 


This is a great father and son project to finish off in one weekend, and turn it on immediately, so make your child proud. All the fabrication is completed, and car runs solid when it's on. Always garaged, never even broke in the engine. So the buyer will have a bad ass motor once the seals are fixed. Haltech is tuned, so it's good to go with either motor, like I said-plug and play with the substitute engine, and or a partial rebuild. 


I don't have the time to install the newer engine, so i'm cutting my losses, and selling it, that said I know the car, the price's, etc.

Mazda on sales upswing in Europe but won't build there

Sat, 20 Jul 2013

Auto sales in Europe have been a tricky proposition for some years, but Mazda has seen some success on the backs of the CX-5 and new Mazda6. According to a report form Automotive News Europe, though, that doesn't mean we should be looking for the Japanese manufacturer to set up production operations there.
Mazda's European CEO, Jeff Guyton, explained to AN that "Our intention is to have manufacturing scale. That gives you scale economy and quality through repeatability." In other words, a big honking plant in one part of the world is preferable to a half dozen small factories building the same vehicles.
European sales for Mazda are up 5.4 percent in the first half of 2013, with 74,000 units sold. That kicked the Zoom-Zoom brand's market share up from one to 1.2 percent. Small gains, but gains nonetheless. According to Guyton, Mazda would need to sell 200,000 units of just one model in Europe for local production to make sense. Mazda's best European year saw 320,000 units sold across the entire range.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:

Goodbye Zoom-Zoom, Driving Matters is Mazda's new slogan [w/video]

Thu, May 21 2015

Timed with the launch of the 2016 MX-5 Miata, Mazda is now changing gears with its advertising strategy in the US by launching a whole new slogan. The Japanese brand's latest marketing motto takes a much more direct approach than Zoom-Zoom by simply saying Driving Matters. The two-word phrase is meant to make customers believe that a good time behind the wheel can improve their lives. Driving Matters is also supposed to say something about how Mazda engineers vehicles. "Whether it's for safety purposes or for maintaining our 'fun to drive' nature, it all comes down to the fact that driving matters to our customers and it matters to us." Russell Wager, vice president of marketing at Mazda North American Operations, said in the announcement of the new campaign. However, Zoom-Zoom isn't entirely dead, and the words still appear in small print in some of these spots. According to Wager in an interview with Automotive News, the old slogan isn't necessarily understandable to some focus groups. "I'll ask them to explain to me what 'Zoom Zoom' means, and I'll get 6 or 7 different answers. That's what Driving Matters is supposed to address. It's supposed to solidify what 'Zoom Zoom' means to people," he said. So far, the company has released several examples of the campaign to highlight the Miata and Mazda6. At the same time, Mazda is launching a new commercial (embedded below) called A Driver's Life that showcases many of its models but puts a big emphasis on the MX-5.

Mazda Launches All-New Advertising Campaign, "Driving Matters" - New Campaign Communicates How the Joy of Driving Can Enhance Your Life - IRVINE, Calif. (May 21, 2015) –The Oxford Dictionary defines "driving" as, "operating and controlling the direction and speed of a motor vehicle." Mazda believes that driving is more than a definition. Driving is an experience that can enhance your life. To better illustrate how every Mazda vehicle embodies why "Driving Matters," today Mazda North American Operations (MNAO) is rolling out a new advertising campaign. Driving Matters is an evolution of the Game Changers campaign. With Game Changers, Mazda succeeded in increasing consumer awareness of the functional attributes of our vehicles. Driving Matters will extend the message by creating an emotional connection to the brand.
