1984 Mazda Rx7 Gsl on 2040-cars
Cottonwood, Arizona, United States
Bought this California car out of a garage in Sedona AZ, The owner and his wife were the original owners of the car. Just look at the Vehicle History report on this vehicle it score a 50 it says other similar cars score between 13 - 37.
My original intent for this car was to use it as a bracket car for racing but after showing the car to some mazda enthusiasts was talked into trying to sell the car so it could be preserved. The car is factory original right down to the radio as far as I can tell. The only thing I have done to the exterior is washed it under the hood was that clean when I found it. I also have the rear window metal louver that is installed on the car. I had taken it off when the pictures were taken. Items I have replaced are windshield, rear shocks, plug wires, plugs, driveshaft, door weatherstrip, semi rigid engine mounts, rear hatch struts, tires, converted ac to 134a and changed the oil. I have driven the car a little bit locally and it drives and shifts nice. Does have a slight vibration between 30 - 50 mph had a local mechanic look at it and felt it was a bad exhaust system mount. I have not looked into it any further because if I keep the car I will be changing it to a more open style exhaust. I wanted to leave it as original as possible for selling it. Extra items I have are plugs, stock engine mounts and front shocks. Please contact me with any questions if you are interested in the car. I am trying to sell the car on eBay first before taking it to one of the large auctions. I have contacted them and they feel the car would bring between $7500.00 and $10000.00 in a auction setting. I have a reserve of $5000.00 on the vehicle anything less than that and I will just keep it and convert it to a little bracket car. This car is sold as is so please contact me with any questions. |

2014 Mazda CX-5 with 2.5-liter Skyactiv engine
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Back in October, we compared the relative merits of two new and very good small crossovers: the 2013 Ford Escape and 2013 Mazda CX-5. The CX-5 we tested then had Mazda's 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G engine under its hood, and it managed to just edge out the EcoBoosted Ford despite being down by some 23 horsepower and 34 pound-feet of torque. Had it been available, the 2.5-liter Skyactiv engine that we recently had the opportunity to try out in the 2014 Mazda CX-5, it may have made that comparison even easier to call in the Japanese CUV's favor.
Clearly, if you're in the market for a reasonably sized crossover, the CX-5 should, at the very least, be on your test-drive list. The new engine offering will let buyers opt for a stronger powerplant, with 184 hp and 185 lb-ft on tap. On our second day in Austin's Hill Country - the first was spent quick-spinning the 2014 Mazda6 i Sport, you'll recall - we covered a couple of hundred miles and put the new CX-5 through its paces; here's what we turned up.

Mazda recalling 18k Mazda6 and RX-8 models over airbag inflators
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Faulty Takata airbag inflators keep taking their toll on automakers. Mazda is the latest to be affected in the US by announcing a recall covering 18,050 Mazda6 and RX-8 models to replace the front, passenger-side airbags. Specifically, the campaign covers 18,000 Mazda6 units from the 2003 and 2004 model years built between May 29, 2002, and March 4, 2004, and 50 RX-8 vehicles from the 2004 model year made between June 25, 2003, and June 30, 2003.
As with the rest of the vehicles with these faulty inflators, it's possible for the part to rupture when deploying the airbag and potentially spray shrapnel at the occupant. Mazda's defect notice goes into a bit more detail than most about the problem saying: "some propellant wafers have been produced with an inadequate compaction force, or may have been exposed to uncontrolled moisture conditions (those wafers could have absorbed moisture beyond the allowable limits)."
This isn't Mazda's first difficulty with Takata-supplied airbags this year. The company was among the seven automakers that recalled vehicles in hot-weather states over the inflators. It also had to recently fix 42,000 Mazda6 vehicles in China over the issue.
Fiat reconsidering Mazda-based Alfa Romeo roadster? [w/poll]
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Alfa giveth and Alfa taketh away. With apologies to Job (he has gone through a lot, after all), that's how things are looking at the Italian automaker - whether it's the promise of new products or its impending return to the North American market. But it's especially true when it comes to new roadsters.
While Alfa Romeo is expected to unveil the 4C Spider at the Geneva Motor Show this week, reports are now suggesting that its other roadster project is being called into question. That project is a joint venture between Fiat and Mazda, which was set to produce a version of its next MX-5 Miata as an Alfa Romeo, and was even changing the design to accommodate Alfa's requirements.
Now it appears, however, that the whole project in doubt. The problem seems to stem from Sergio Marchionne's pronouncements that, as long as he's in charge, there won't be an Alfa Romeo built outside of Italy.
