Mechanicsville, Virginia, United States

Up for auction my extremely clean 1993 mazda rx7. I have owned this car for about 2 years and it has been a joy. The turbos boost properly and car drives great. I put about 12,000 miles on it since I have owned it. New motor and turbos installed at 100k back in 1999 have the almost 10,000 dollar receipt to prove it. The mechanics of the car are unmolested-no aftermarket bolt ons. I do have a stainless steel HKS downpipe that goes with the car, just couldnt bring myself to install it. I did install some cosmetic add ons though. They include R1 lip spoiler, JDM Kouki tailights, JDM Nardi Torino Leather steering wheel, JDM center armrest pad which replaces the ashtray , JDM stainless steel kick plates, smoked front blinkers and rx8 18 inch rims with tires that have about 800 miles on them. Also put a glass sunroof in it from a 1994 which still has the black out panel insert that you can't find anymore. I have a delphi boost guage in steering column which matches factory guages perfectly. Laser cut plastic floor mats to protect the original ones. I upgraded the bose stereo system with new speakers and a clarion CX501 stereo with blue tooth. Bose wave tube still installed and functional. I still have the original rims with good tires I will let go with the car. I have changed the oil myself. Installed new spark plugs wires and fuel filter. I have also installed cross drilled rotors with ceramic pads front and rear. I beleive the car has had a repaint in its life because there is no clear pealing off-which is common in these. There is a weird spot on left front corner on roof that looks like sap had got on it. Have to get close to notice it but its there. I was also told I need rear pillow ball bushings it makes a kind of popping noise in rear while breaking. It looks like to me there is slight oil seep out of the right rear corner of the oil pan. I have a lift in my garage thats how I noticed this. Also the interior is in excellent shape but the drivers seat needs some attention. Feel free to ask any questions I am sure I left some stuff out. I believe I have a very reasonable reserve based on the mileage of the car. It's a very nice looking daily driver but not perfect.    500 dollar deposit in paypal upon auction close. Cash or cashiers check in person. .

Jay Leno celebrates Mazda Miata's 25th birthday

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

Ask a car enthusiast what the best driver's car on the road is, and the Mazda MX-5 Miata is very likely to come up rather quickly. Unjustly saddled with a reputation as a "chick's car," the Miata has been, over its three generations, one of the finest driving instruments ever built - it's light, agile and rear-wheel drive with direct, snappy steering, an engine that revels in being revved and a precise, smooth-shifting transmission. The fact that it's ridiculously affordable and reliable is simply a bonus.
It should come as no surprise then, that a car with these traits has endured for 25 years, a milestone reached only by some of the most famous nameplates in the auto industry - Corvette, Mustang, F-150, SL, M3 and so on. To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Jay Leno spent some time with the little roadster that could, while also chatting with two of the Mazda employees that were central to the MX-5's arrival on the world's automotive scene, Bob Hall and Tom Matano.
Take a look below for the latest video from Jay Leno's Garage on the excellent Mazda MX-5 Miata.

Mazda de Mexico celebrates 100,000th car built

Sun, Dec 28 2014

Automakers and their factories celebrate production milestones all the time. Some are interesting enough to report on and some aren't, but what makes this one stand out is that the plant opened less than a year ago. Just 11 months since production began, Mazda de Mexico Vehicle Operation has put together its 100,000th vehicle – in this case a Mazda2 hatchback headed for Europe. MMVO is one of three plants assembling the company's smallest model, also known as the Demio in Japan, where it is also produced, with additional assembly taking place in Thailand under a joint venture with Ford. The Mexican location also handles assembly of the Mazda3 for the Americas and for Europe. Mazda has announced that it is expanding production at MMVO by 150 percent of this year's capacity to 250,000 units per year by March 2016 as it takes on contract manufacturing for Toyota as well.

R&T chases down a burglar in the million-mile Miata

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

Is the answer always Mazda Miata? We discussed this in passing on the Autoblog Podcast earlier this week, and most assuredly the answer is "no." For example, the little MX-5 would be a terrible people carrier, and it'd be useless off road. You can't really tow anything of substance with it, either. Still, if push came to shove, it's satisfying to know that the diminutive roadster could eke out a career as a chase vehicle for the police.
That fact was proven when Road & Track editor Chris Cantle did something that he himself recognizes as "stupid." Upon returning home, Cantle discovered a "twenty-something" actively burgling his home. The resulting story is easily one of the more entertaining episodes to come out of the 1990 MX-5's service to the team at R&T and, we're guessing, will be one of the highlights of the Million-Mile Miata challenge.
Be sure to head over to Road & Track for a full retelling of the chase from Cantle, as well as a follow-up on the saga.
