Thanks for stopping by: Please note that this car was sold on Ebay 5 days ago and the 0 feedback winning bidder did not submit deposit or payment. The vehicle had over 20 bids and sold for a no reserve price of $2175.00. Quite a bit lower than I would have expected, as it's a great car. Please do not bid if you have 0 or negative feedback. I have a deposit on my new car and I'm forced to do a quick sale AT NO RESERVE.

Your currently viewing my 2004 R2 Mazda rx8. Car regularly serviced and maintained by Pettit Racing in South Florida. The items below have been done to the car in the last year. Too many to list, but here's a summary of the extras we have put on. All original Pettit Racing parts. It's been my daily driver and I'm offering it up for sale to buy newer one.

Brand new obx racing midpipe just installed.

Brand new red top optima battery.

All natural power tuning kit from Pettit racing.

NGK racing new spark plugs and coils just replaced.

EXEDY Racing Rally clutch with new clutch slave cylinder installed three months ago

New aftermarket alloy rims plastidipped black.

the interior is in very nice condition. cloth interior with no tears.

there are a few things that need attention. I'm buying a newer one, need to sell and I'd rather not put the money in, so anyone that wants to own a great car for a unbelievable price - this is it.

Here's what should be done.

It has a small leak of coolant - the radiator should be replaced. (these engines are designed to run rich and the radiator should be replaced ASAP to protect the engine) It runs and drives fine, however I wouldn't chance it by not replacing it soon.
 
recommend new tires ASAP. The paint has some fading on top from the Florida sun. not something that has to be fixed unless you want to. 

needs a new MAF sensor ($200) - cold starts are fine and will idle fine at 1400 rpm but once it gets warm the idle slowly will go down and you sometimes must give it a bit of gas to keep at idle at stop. this just started happening and I can drive it fine, but I would fix it soon.

Lastly,  there is a dent in the front right passenger fender. it's definitely more than just cosmetic but as you can tell from the pics - it's not that visible from the distance. If you want closer pics of that let me know. 

I want to be very upfront with the problems the car has, so you know exactly what your getting in to. I'm not a used car dealer as this is a personal vehicle. I have been selling on Ebay for over a decade with 100% FB. My Ebay reputation is more important to me than this sale. So please serious inquiries only.  

I get lots of compliments on the looks of the car and the sound of the midpipe. it's really a unique looking car that runs good is fast and fun to drive! Also good on gas. For the few hundred you may end up putting in this car, I promise you will have a very unique car that looks great and stands out. You just cannot find a car this cool, unique and fast for under 3k.

2014 Mazda6: Introduction

Thu, 30 May 2013

An Extended Stay With The Sexy Six
The new-for-2014 Mazda6 sedan is more than just a pretty face. For Mazda, it marks the company's best effort yet at competing in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment, all the while staying true to the brand's core value of offering high levels of driver involvement above all. We certainly came away impressed after our first drive of the sleek Six in France last fall, and we knew right from the start that this would be a car we'd want to spend a lot of time with back here at home.
So with that in mind, the folks at Mazda graciously agreed to loan us the fully loaded Soul Red tester you see here for a one-year stay in the Autoblog long-term garage. Because of how important this car is to the segment, and to Mazda as a brand, we know there's going to be a lot to talk about it over the next 12 months. Right now, though, allow us to introduce you to the newest member of our long-term family.

Lexus, Mazda and Subaru top Consumer Reports Brand Report Cards

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

A revised methodology in devising its annual Car Brand Report Cards has seen Consumer Reports award Lexus its top overall ranking for 2013. For the first time ever, the institute broke out individual brands from their larger corporate umbrellas, meaning car makers like Lexus and Scion were judged independently from parent company Toyota. That strategy worked out well for Lexus, as the luxury brand earned a top report card score of 79 for the 2013 model year.
The institute has recommended every one of the Lexus models it has tested to date, and said that the company's products won out thanks to "a foundation of plush and very reliable vehicles."
Meanwhile, Mazda and Subaru tied for the second-highest scoring report cars, with scores of 76. Subaru earned praised for sporting models like the BRZ, which CR testers apparently had a lot of fun driving (naturally), while the Mazda products were lauded for their blend of practicality, sportiness and efficiency. Both of the Japanese brands offered good handling, fuel economy and versatility, said Consumer Reports.
