Lake Zurich, Illinois, United States

VERY SPECIAL 1979 RX7 W/BULLETPROOF 13B LASER STRAIGHT I'll do my best to describe this very unique RX7 but I'm sure there are things I will forget to mention...so here goes. The car gets massive attention everywhere it goes! It has won a trophy in import class at every car show i have entered it in (8-10). It is super competitive autocross events. I have won 1 first place but usually finish 2nd or 3rd because the driver is not as great as the car. It is a pleasure to drive down the road smooth and straight. It sounds soooo good with that rotary buzz. The suspension is setup a little hard for optimum handleing. The air conditioning was removed for weight reasons. If you wanted to install it back the parts are readily available on Ebay and all ducts are there. The heat works great. There are aftermarket oil pressure, oil temp, water temp. and air/fuel ratio gauges. All stock gauges and lights work as they should. The interior is perfect with new Mazda Speed seats. New premium windshield.The pics tell the story. The engine was built by Hayes Rotary Engineering at a cost of 4912.00. The header and intake are Racing Beat w/a Delorto Carb. The ignition is a MSD/direct fire w/3 MSD coils. This engine is capable of 10,000 RPM! The 5 speed trans and HP clutch are excellent. The tires are about 5 years old and are 205/45/16 on newer rims, I forgot the brand. The car does not leak a drop of anything and runs at 180 in the hottest weather. The car also has Tokico Lumina shocks all around, adjustable in front. The fronr end is completely new. 1984 SE posi rear end and front struts/brakes. That about covers it. I do not have a video or anymore pics. The car is back on rollers double covered in the garage. I really love this car but just don't get a chance to drive it very much, I have 3 other toy cars and a shifter go kart and I'm a 50 y.o. kid. There is a file full of receipts, pics and manuals. No BS please. Sold as is with no warranty. Car averages 25MPG on regular. The price is superfair and will not be considering offers right away. The car is also listed locally. Thank for looking. |

Fiat 124 caught entirely undisguised
Mon, Sep 28 2015Dear automakers, please continue making these kind of mistakes. Thanks to what we're guessing is some lax security, the all-new, Mazda MX-5 Miata-based Fiat 124 was spotted taking part in a photo shoot near Santa Barbara, CA. The images show what we'd consider a fairly simple rebadging job. The 124 gets new front and rear clips that not only harken back to the original 124 (not to mention other Fiat roadsters, like the Barchetta), but also serves to distance this droptop from the rest of the company's US range. The similarities between the 124 and the car it's based on are even more obvious in the cabin. This is an MX-5 interior with Fiat's big, red badge on the tiller. That means the same quality materials and knob-dial infotainment system that have been so well received in the Miata. It's under the hood, though, where the Fiat really differs from its Japanese cousin. According to our spy, the vehicle shown here features some kind of two-pedal setup – probably the six-speed Euro twin-clutch used in the 500L and Dodge Dart. Don't worry, though, a six-speed stick will also be on offer. Regardless of transmission, we can expect a 180-horsepower version of the 1.4-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder offered in the 500 Abarth. And if that's not enough good news, a dedicated Abarth model will likely arrive after launch, which our spies claim will use the 1.75-liter turbo and DCT from the Alfa Romeo 4C. While this represents a good look at the new 124, we'll probably be waiting until the LA Auto Show in November for the official look. Stay tuned.
Top Gear recounts the fiery demise of the Mazda Furai
Mon, 02 Dec 2013This past September we reported on Top Gear's destruction of the Mazda Furai, one of the finest concept cars to ever grace an auto show stage. It turns out that the Furai, which was burned nearly beyond recognition at the hands of the British magazine, was actually destroyed back in 2008, and that the entire thing had been covered up for five long years.
Now, a few months after publishing that heart-wrenching composite of a half-baked Furai (shown above), the lads at TG have published their account of just what resulted in a priceless concept car being transformed into a smoking hulk on a Suffolk runway. Click over to read the full story about just what happened, along with pictures of the Furai before, during and after the inferno.
