1985 Mazda RX-7 RX7 GSL-SE

This is originally a California car and is just out of storage. It was stored in an enclosed trailer in California for eight years before I purchased the car. The car retains all of its original paint and original equipment (the only thing that isn't original to the car is the radio). It has been well cared for and maintained.  The car runs, drives and stops perfectly. The tires are in excellent shape with lots of tread left. There are two sun roofs, one glass and one that is the body color of the car.

The car drives smoothly, brakes straight and accelerates like it should. On the freeway, the car tracks straight, true and smooth. The engine does not and has not ever exhibited any of the flooding problems that so many others experience with the 13B fuel injected engine. The engine runs well and has plenty of power and revs smoothly. The engine starts immediately, and there is no smoke from the engine either on start up or while driving.

The air conditioning blows cold, the heater blows hot, the cruise control works and the clock keeps time. The electric windows work, but are a little slow going up. Since there is an aftermarket radio, the center console four-way speaker control is not connected. The electric antenna does not raise up, but I have a brand new replacement electric antenna still in the box that will be included with the sale of the car.

Overall the exterior of the car is in excellent condition. There are some rock chips on the nose and a couple of door dings, things that you would expect for a car that is 30 years old, but overall, the paint is all original and in really good condition, as can be seen the pictures. The flat black window trim could probably use a repaint, but it is just wind-worn and I’ll leave that up to the new owner to repaint or leave as is. I wanted to leave it as original as possible for the new owner. All the glass is in good shape and there are no cracks. There is one small rock chip in the windshield on the passenger side that is not very noticeable. The interior is in very good condition. The only flaw is the steering wheel. The top of the steering wheel looks as if someone chewed off the top of it. As mentioned earlier, the only non-stock item in the interior is the radio. The carpets are in very good condition, having been protected by aftermarket floor mats. The seat upholstery is in excellent condition. The seats travel easily in their tracks and the seat back adjustments work as they should.

Included with the car is a front nose “Bra” in like new condition (not installed) and louvers for the rear hatch (also not installed).

I have a clear Washington state title in my name. The car is available for viewing by appointment and I encourage you to do so.

Down payment to be made by Paypal. Balance of the sale amount to to be paid by cashier's check within 7 days of the auction end.

Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, including shipping arrangements and costs. I will assist with the shipping on my end to the best of my ability. I will store the car for up to two weeks after the end of the auction to allow for time to arrange shipping.

Mazda CX-5 getting mild refresh

Thu, 14 Aug 2014

Mazda has found both critical and commercial success with its CX-5 small crossover, and seems to be endeavoring to keep the momentum up with an upcoming refresh. As you can extrapolate from the obvious lack of the usual camouflage, the company isn't reinventing anything in the very near future of the CX-5, but it does seem as thought some tweaks are in the works.
Lighting elements fore and aft appear to have gone under the knife, with the front grille and rear fascia also seemingly to be slightly revised. The side mirrors now look slicker and slightly more upscale with their integrated turn signals, as well.
In all, expect a look that's a touch fresher, without being a radical departure from the existing visage.

Mazda recalls 109k Tribute models for rust issue

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

The Mazda Tribute is being hit with a similar recall as its platform-mate the Ford Escape underwent a few weeks ago. Mazda is recalling 109,000 Tributes from model years 2001 to 2004. On the trucks, the subframe can rust from road salt, potentially causing the lower control arm to detach. If this happens, a loss of steering control could occur.
Mazda is adding a reinforcement crossbrace for added strength on the affected models. The recall covers Tributes currently registered in or originally sold in 20 northern states and Washington, DC, where road salt is used.
The reinforcement braces aren't available yet to do the repair. Mazda will send a letter in May to owners of affected vehicles that will inform them of the problem, and a second letter telling them when the parts will be ready. Scroll down to read the full recall press release.

2019 Mazda3 Sedan Drivers' Notes Review | Moving on up

Tue, Apr 2 2019

The Mazda3 enters its fourth iteration for 2019, replacing one of our favorite compacts on the market. As such, expectations were high for the new model. Like before, the Mazda3 is available as both a sedan and hatchback, though the big news for the new model is the available all-wheel drive system, a rarity for the class and and a feature more and more people are looking for in a car these days. At launch, power comes solely from a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated inline-four, though Mazda plans to offer additional powertrains down the line. Competitors include the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, Subaru Impreza, Hyundai Elantra and Kia Forte. Our tester was a well-equipped Mazda3 Premium front-wheel-drive sedan. Standard features include 18-inch wheels, LED lighting, a power driver's seat, leather seating and trim, keyless entry and ignition, dual-zone climate control, an 8.8-inch infotainment system, Bose audio, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert and adaptive cruise control. The only added cost to the Premium Package is $595 for the paint. All in, our tester came out to $27,990. Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore: The Mazda3 is the sportiest in the segment and, as far as I'm concerned, it's dead-even with the Honda Civic for the top spot in the looks department. The steering, brakes and suspension all feel dialed-in and quick. Many compacts are sedate. The 3 makes you want to track it. The suspension is stiff enough that non-enthusiasts might prefer something else, though it's not abusive. The naturally aspirated four provides just enough getup. Mazda is good at the minimalistic approach. Tune a car well, make it look sporty, and don't try to overcompensate with horsepower. This thing looks great inside and out. For the price, you can't beat it. The cabin has the appearance and feel of a premium sedan, with pleasing materials and an enveloping cockpit. With a creased hood and huge, blacked-out grille, the 3's front end has a contemporary style with old-school panache. I might like the hatch better because it's a rarer body style. Still, this sedan is a well-rounded, sporty execution and a great value. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Associate Editor Joel Stocksdale: Since its reveal at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the 2019 Mazda3 has been my most anticipated car of the year, as well as the one I've been most worried about.
