Red Gsl-se. Rebuilt Engine, Straight Body on 2040-cars
Stockbridge, Georgia, United States

If you are a Rotor head, you know this is the "holy grail" first Gen RX7. That's why I got it, and why I put a fresh engine in it. If you are not a "Rotor Head" I can tell you they made these cars for two years only and they had the larger, more powerful 13B fuel injected engines and larger brakes and wheels. They are really a great car and they are sought after by RX7 enthusiasts and collectors who see them as a car that going up in value. Since I got it, I have taken on other, more valuable projects and the RX7 needs a new Rotor daddy. The GOOD: Straight body, fresh rebuild (about 4,000 miles)good clutch, gearbox, rear end, Air conditioning and power steering, great tires, new idler arm etc. The BAD: The seats have tears, the rear carpet is shot, the rear interior trim panel; is MIA and the left taillight is coming apart.. There is minor oil leak at the cooler, there is a Power steering leak. The car has the RX7 "on center" wander in the steering, but it has the new updated Idler arm so it may be a steering box adjustment. I'd call it "normal". It is intermittently hard to start cold..your guess is as good as mine:). I always under describe and over deliver in my auctions, so understand this is not a $1500 beater car. It has more money than the "Buy it now" invested in the engine and new parts, it just needs more attention than I have time for to make it a very valuable car. I am done with it, come get it! NOTE: If you want one of these that needs less attention, there is very nice red GSL SE on eBay with now, with the nicer gray interior, it is at $5,000 with more than 50 bids as I type this...... |

Masamichi Kogai new Mazda president and CEO
Fri, 10 May 2013There's some executive rearranging going on in the top suite at Mazda Motor Corporation in Japan, with current CEO Takashi Yamanouchi telling reporters there "I'd like to hand over the work to younger people" now that the company has returned to profitability. Yamanouchi became CEO on November 19, 2008 of an independent Mazda that had to fight for its future in the immediate aftermath of the global financial crisis. What followed was four years of losses before finally getting back to black last year.
Masamichi Kogai (pictured) will be appointed the new president and CEO on June 25, pending approval at the company's annual general shareholders' meeting. Kogai assisted Seita Kanai with the production-efficiency initiative that Mazda called Mono Tsukuri Innovation, which worked to give export-dependent Mazda the best chance at profitability in spite of a rising yen. Kogai, lately in charge of production and purchasing, has been with the company since 1977 and worked in areas from R&D to logistics.
Kanai, who headed the Mono Tsukuri effort and was among the leadership on Skyactiv, will be promoted from executive vice president to vice chairman. Akira Marumoto will become executive VP of Mazda and assistant to new president Kogai. Yamanouchi will remain Chairman of the Board. There's a short press release below to make it official.
Mazda CX-3 details come to light
Sun, 09 Dec 2012Mazda may be working on a new CUV, according to Auto Express. Reportedly called the CX-3, the small crossover will be engineered to take on the likes of the Ford EcoSport and Nissan Juke, but with a focus on fuel efficiency and engaging driving characteristics.
The report names no sources, but says the CX-3 will benefit from a new small-displacement diesel engine. The 1.6-liter oil burner will be joined by a 1.3-liter gasoline engine when the vehicle debuts in 2014. Auto Express reports the model may bow as a front-wheel drive offering only, with no all-wheel-drive option.
And what will it look like? Word has it Mazda will continue to leverage the face we've seen on the current CX-5 (pictured). That means the company's shield grille will make the jump, but with more plastic lower body cladding. Inside, Auto Express says the CX-3 will offer buyers fold-flat rear seating for extra cargo capacity.
Mazda goes on engineer hiring binge as recovery picks up speed
Mon, 10 Mar 2014Japan's larger automakers - companies like Toyota, Honda and Nissan - have tremendous engineering talent at their disposal. That's largely because, selling as many cars as they do, they've got more revenues to tap into. Logic might dictate, then, that smaller automakers like Mazda, which no longer has the deep pockets afforded to it by its former partnership with Ford, might have less of a budget and workforce for engineering. But Mazda has been raking in record profits, and it plans on cashing those revenues in by hiring a substantial new pool of engineers.
According to Automotive News, Mazda is preparing to hire as many as 185 new engineers over the next two years - almost four times as many as the 50 engineers it previously targeted. Many of those engineers will be put to work developing the second-generation, Skyactiv 2 technologies that are on the drawing board while the first round of Skyactiv features are still being rolled out.
The boost in recruitment is enabled by a positive fiscal year that ended last March, marking the first profits Mazda had logged in four years. Sources anticipate that the fiscal year culminating at the end of this month will mark the company's most profitable yet, netting over a billion dollars to eclipse the fiscal year that ended in 2008 when it recorded $872.5 million in profits.
