This 1985 Mazda RX7 GS is a very well preserved car, mechanically perfect and an excellent driver. I am owner number 3 and the car fax supports the mileage of 100,7XX.

The car came to me from a collector car dealer in Boise Idaho and was in well preserved shape. A new radio is the only modifications from stock I’ve noticed and the original stereo, equalizer and cassette come with the car. Here is the list of work beyond oil and filters performed during my ownership:

  • ·      Oil pressure sensor weeping removed and replaced
  • ·      Speedometer cable gaskets at transmission weeping, removed and replaced.
  • ·      Differential drain / fill plug gaskets weeping, removed, replaced refilled with fresh fluid.
  • ·      Transmission exterior shift boot torn, removed and replaced.
  • ·      Tires rotated, balanced, new valve stems installed and raised white letters turned inside.
  • ·      Small dent on top of drivers side front fender repaired by paint free dent removal.
  • ·      Door seals leaking, removed and replaced.
  • ·      Hood support retainer clip missing, replaced.
  • ·      Rear hatch supports weak, replaced.
  • ·      Front wheel bearings loose, preloads reset.
  • ·      Front Shocks worn, replaced with KYB units.
  • ·      Interior shift boot and plastic surround cracked, removed and replaced with new old stock.
  • ·      Clutch chattering when hot, replaced clutch including new friction disk, pressure plate, pilot bearing and release bearing. Flywheel resurfaced at this time, transmission drained and refilled with new gear oil.
  • ·      Air conditioning leaking freon, main hoses removed and replaced. Fresh charge of R12 refrigerant. Blows 38F at the center vent in 75F ambient temperature.
  • ·      Oil injection system tested and shown to be at factory specifications.

There are receipts to document all of this. Every system on the car works, as it should. Currently it wears Idaho plates but on 3/6/14 the car easily passed a California smog inspection, which is good for change of ownership within 60 days.

I find nothing that would make me doubt this is original paint and see no evidence of rust. Ocean Blue Metallic, code L-6, which appears to be a fairly rare one-year only color. There are small chips in the clear coat located on the plastic rear bumpers edge, see pictures.

The grey cloth interior looks incredible, no rips tears or stains. The dash is 100% crack free and all the glass has the original Mazda stamps. Headliner is in great shape with no discoloration or sagging.

I have tried to describe this car as honestly as I can. This RX has been enjoyed and that means the occasional chip and some wear marks but short of a frame off restoration or a museum piece I doubt you can find a cleaner example.

Feel free to contact me, Bill 760-809-9746, with any questions or to view the car. Pre--purchase inspections will be facilitated in the North San Diego County area at your expense only. 

Finally the legal stuff:

·      The car is sold “As is” with no implied or expressed warranty.

·      Seller will help to facilitate shipping but only at buyer’s sole expense.

·      $500.00 due from winning bidder via PayPal within 24 hours of the auction’s end.

·      Balance only via certified check, cash in person or wire transfer within 7 days of auction ending. PayPal will not be accepted for the balance unless seller agrees in advance and buyer pays all associated fees.

2009-2013 Mazda6 door latch recall covers 161k cars

Mon, 30 Sep 2013

Mazda is voluntarily recalling 161,400 Mazda6 cars due to door latch mounting screws that may loosen, which could cause a door to open while the vehicle is in motion, thereby increasing the risk of accident or injury. The recall covers 2009 through 2013 Mazda6 models manufactured between February 4, 2008 and August 24, 2012.
The recall is expected to begin by October 18, 2013. Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will provide repairs free of charge. Scroll down for the official recall notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

2015 Mazda3 finally pairs 6-speed manual with larger engine

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

With all of the hype and anticipation surrounding the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata, the Japanese brand was able to sneak another driver-oriented model into its lineup. The company's spec page for the 2015 Mazda3 hatchback and sedan have been updated to list the Skyactiv-G 2.5-liter four-cylinder as finally being available with a six-speed manual transmission, in addition to the previous six-speed automatic. The automaker had promised the row-your-own gearbox with the bigger engine back when it first announced the new Mazda3, but it waited a model year to actually put the combo on sale.
According to Mazda's specs, the manual gearbox trims 40 pounds off of a hatchback or 54 pounds off of a sedan in s Touring and s Grand Touring trims. However, shedding that weight doesn't necessarily boost fuel economy. The six-speed hatch is rated at 26 miles per gallon city and 35 mpg highway, compared to 27/37 for the automatic. The manual sedan is rated at 25/37 city/highway mpg, versus 28/39 with the auto. Buyers can save a little money by opting for the manual, though. Regardless of body style, it's about $1,050 cheaper than the automatic.
Autoblog reached out to Mazda and learned that the 2.5L 6MT models started hitting dealers in August. The 2.5 wasn't initially available with the stick because, "We had to prioritize engineering resources and the 2.5L 6MT was not a high priority combination. Globally, smaller engines are preferred in terms of sales," a Mazda spokesperson explained via email. The automaker also notes that Austrailia will probably be the only other market outside of North America to get the six-speed gearbox with the larger engine.
