1986 Mazda RX-7 1.3 liter rotary engine with only 67,892k original miles. Never driven in the snow. Stored in a home garage. Interior is sound (except side torn on driver's seat) and mostly untouched. Body has some wear (Car is 28+ years old).  Some rust spots around vehicle and some paint blemishes caused by dormant 20yrs of inactivity where it was stored before I purchased vehicle on 6/2010 as a hobby for restoration. Mostly around sunroof and door frames but there are some around hatch. I left the body alone so the original condition could be observed. You can repaint if you like or drive as is. I drive the car less than 3000 miles per year. It drives great, never stalled or failed to start and no smoke.

List of work and parts:

Fluids: engine oil change (Royal Purple 5w-30), manual transmission fluid (Royal Purple 75w90), rear differential fluid (Royal Purple 75w90), brake fluid (STP Dot3-4 Synthetic). All top quality fluids used, and all oil based fluids are synthetic (Royal Purple and STP)

Gaskets: Exhaust and Intake manifold gaskets, Dynamic Chamber and plenum gaskets, and all exhaust gaskets.

Components: Rubber shifter bushings, spark plugs (NGK Mazda RX-8 Iridium), spark plug wires, air filter, new brake master cylinder and slave cylinder, fuel pump and fuel filters replaced, starter motor, MAF sensor, 4 Falken ZE512 tires and currently have over 75% tread, Duracell performance battery, horn and horn relay, new wipers and all interior plastics were painted by Brown's Mazda body shop to match original color. 

Upgrades: Tokico Blue HP struts, TEIN Coil Springs (1.5" lower and 30% stiffness), F1 Aluminum Flywheel, Clutch Pressure Plate and Stage-2 Clutch, Energy Suspension HyperFlex Performance Polyurethane Master Bushing Kit, OBX SS Headers, Racing Beat SS Pre-Silincer, OBX SS 3" Y-Pipe and Universal Mufflers, Mazda Miata Short Shifter, New Leather Shifter Boot.

Car runs and starts great, even in cold weather. It has a bad ground somewhere (common RX-7 issue) and revs up and down when idle ( + 200rpm) and a slight and quick lag at 3800rpm which is caused by a poor ground somewhere...  I know I'm missing many minor replaced components and upgrades, but feel free to contact me for any questions.

* Car can be driven anywhere even though it currently has Antique plates (restricted to within 250miles from registered address)

No trades, cash only, please only serious inquires.

Bid with confidence. My feedback is excellent.

Disclaimers:
WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) - No Deposit Refund or Vehicle Return after transaction is completed

This vehicle IS 28yrs old and the buyer should take this into consideration when making the purchase.

The vehicle has a low serial number as it was manufactured on February, 1986 and directly imported from Japan, therefore it does not have any on-board computer (ODBC, ODBC-II, etc). 
EPA new vehicle requirements in the USA became effective in July, 1986.

Powertrain (Engine, Transmission, Differential) is completely OE from the manufacturer and never rebuilt or opened. All interior (except radio) is OE from manufacturer or aftermarket to OE specifications.

Rotary engines ARE NOT reciprocating engines (Piston Engine), therefore they do not have as many internal component (less than 40%) that piston engines. 
No timing belt (chain driven from crankshaft), only accessory belt.
With proper care and maintenance this engine is rated from Mazda with a MTBF of 200,000km (124,275mi) and the cost of rebuilt is about 20-35% less than a standard reciprocating engine if needed.

The Chevrolet Bolt is headed to China as a Buick SUV

Thu, Jan 16 2020

When spy photos of what appeared to be Chevrolet Bolt EV with some minor front- and rear-end updates circulated last week, Autoblog surmised that GM was working on some sort of Bolt-based vehicle — potentially a crossover — to be sold in China as a Buick. We may just have corroboration for that theory. On Thursday, Motor1.com spotted a story published earlier this week on the Chinese site Auto Home which claims that GM has applied to sell an all-electric SUV under the Velite 7 nameplate in China.  There's little differentiating the Velite 7's exterior from the Bolt EV's, apart from bumpers, badges, and a little extra ground clearance. Up front, the bowtie is replaced by a round Buick badge, and the bumper picks up an almost Prius-like appearance thanks to contrasting vertical elements and a thin grille bleeding into the head lights to give it a full-width appearance. Chevy Bolt-based prototype View 16 Photos If the Chinese report is accurate, there is one significant difference under the skin. Per the application, the Buick crossover variant is to be powered by a 174-horsepower electric powertrain. That's down 26 horsepower from the Bolt EV's powertrain, and we can't help but think that a lifted Buick variant might just need every pony it can get.  The needs of the Chinese market are unique, and we're certain GM knows what it's doing if these figures are accurate. We have no reason to believe Buick plans to sell the Velite 7 EV here in the States, though we expect an updated Chevy Bolt eventually, and we wouldn't be surprised if Buick brings something along shortly to fill the void left by the departure of the Regal sedan and its variants.  Related Video:
