Hey! Up for sale is what most consider to be one of the few real sports cars. This 1995 Mazda Rx7 is a true example, with only minor improvements made. 66,4xx miles. As a silver 95 base, it is one of six imported in 1995 with those options (see photos for import numbers) and 1 of a mere 500 total imported 95 Rx7’s. Pair that with a VIN ending in 529, and you may very well be looking at the last FD brought to the US. Extremely rare, and in incredible condition. The interior shows little to no wear. A couple minor blemishes, such as the power mirror control having a loose mounting tab, and the stock shift knob showing wear for an almost 20 year old car. The previous owner also installed keyless entry, which was a custom job due to there not being a motor in the door to do so. One was added, and is nice to have! The driver’s floor mat had seen better days, I just haven’t sourced a new one yet. Currently there is a SakeBomb Garage footrest in the passenger side. This is a design piece that came from the newer Rx7’s in Japan. It is easily removable, and may be removed and sold separately depending on final price. Controlling this car currently is an Apexi Power FC with controller. There’s not too many great options for mounting the controller, so as you can see in pictures, it props up nicely in the coin holder. This gives you the ability to monitor and tune on the fly, and lets you keep an eye on up to 8 aspects of the motor. This is also an easy removal, and again, depending on price may be switched back to the stock computer. The original owner’s manual, and all paperwork are intact and accounted for. The stock amp died in the head unit, so I did a thorough Kenwood upgrade. Head unit, followed by speakers front and rear. Total for the system was over 1k. Come to find out, the speakers had already been replaced by a previous owner, but with the head unit bad, I had no idea, and continued with my install. Could use a subwoofer at some point, but really, this is a sports car, not a concert hall. Sound deadener would be a huge improvement, but I drive more with the radio off, and the incredible symphony of the motor more than music playing. The exterior has brand new paint, literally completed on 9/19/13. The paint was neglected, and in need of a refresh. It is glass smooth, and has an intense mirror finish. As you can see from the pictures, the fit and finish of every single panel is second to none. The gaps, and alignment are absolutely spot on. When the car was in the body shop, I opted for tail lights from a 2001 rx7 straight from Japan, giving it a much more modern appearance, as well as APR carbon fiber mirrors. All bulbs on the exterior have been upgraded to high end LED bulbs, as well as the interior dome and rear hatch light. I modified the stock turn signal relay to accept LED lighting to remove the hyper flash that is common with lower wattage led lighting. Headlights have also been upgraded. All the corner lights as well as the front turn signals are tinted. I did not, however, tint the stock reflectors, I still have them. I just bought an aftermarket set to tint. The wheels are stock, but have essentially brand new bridgstone potenzas. The previous owner had about 800 miles on them, and I have about a 1000 miles total since I bought the car. The engine is relatively stock. No crazy porting, no running issues whatsoever. It also has a fresh tune up, including spark plugs, plug wires, fuel filter, air filter, and an oil change. Essential parts of owning a rotary. Also, a carbon fiber cooling panel was just added yesterday actually (9/20) to aid in air flow, and improve under hood appearance. The panel is a very simple piece that essentially just sets in place. The stock part is available. The exhaust was upgraded by a previous owner to a Blitz Nur Spec system. In my opinion, it sounds amazing. Not whiny or irritating, but deep and aggressive for a rotary. This is a car you literally can walk out to anytime, and it starts right up, no smoke, no hesitation. The suspension has been upgraded by Stance brand coil-overs, custom valved by Rishie at AutoRnD.com. With a many features to give an extremely smooth ride, yet aggressive cornering, this is the best suspension I’ve ever ridden with. The car underwent a full alignment after install, and there is at the most 700 miles on the system. I also added Greddy front and rear strut tower bars, giving increased stability and chassis rigidity. They are sharp, but could use a good polishing/powdercoating. Extras included in the car if the price is right: a full size binder style factory service manual specific to the 95. Also have a small “travel” size service manual. I have the stock radiator cover, as well as the corner lights. The service manuals may or may not be sold separately, if interested parties step forward, but the car parts will remain with the car. Payment is due within 7 days. A $1000.00 dollar deposit is required within 24 hours of the end of the auction, unless other arrangements are made. I am minutes from the local airport, Billings Logan International (BIL), and can pick you up if you decide to fly in and road trip home. Can also help in coordinating shipping, just let me know where to get the car and cover gas to the shipping dock. I do have the title in hand, just have to get a sign off from the local credit union when the note is paid. A few minute deal. |

Takata air bag recall list
Tue, Dec 9 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.
Feds investigating 2010-11 Mazda CX-9 CUVs over braking issues
Mon, 17 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating 62,000, 2010-2011 Mazda CX-9 models over brake problems. The government safety watchdog says it has received seven complaints of an observed loss of power braking power to stop the crossover, according to the The Detroit News.
The NHTSA complaints say that the problem causes a hard pedal, increased braking effort and reduced braking effectiveness. Some complaints allege that they hear a hissing noise during braking similar to the sound of air leaving the tires. No injuries or crashes have been reported.
"As always, we are fully cooperating with NHTSA on their investigation. We cannot comment further at this time," said Mazda spokesperson Tamara Mlynarczyk to The Detroit News.
2017 Fiat 124 Spider priced below most Miatas
Fri, Apr 29 2016The Fiat 124 Spider and Mazda MX-5 Miata might be siblings, but all that means is the rivalry between the two cars will be unusually intense. Pricing for the reborn 124 has been released and is added proof of that fact – aside from the very base trim, the turbocharged Italian is cheaper than its Zoom-Zoomy brother. Fiat's base model, the 124 Spider Classica, starts at $25,990. The MX-5 Sport isn't much cheaper, at $25,735. Both cars get 16-inch alloy wheels, black cloth seats, LED taillights, but the Mazda will throw in LED headlights. It's also interesting to note that the two cars have differing destination charges – $995 for the Fiat and $820 for the Mazda. Move up to the mid-range Fiat, and you'll start to see the "Italian" car eke out a pricing advantage. The Lusso, Italian for luxury, rings up at $28,490 compared to the MX-5 Grand Touring's $30,885. Yes, we're comparing the middle-tier 124 to the range-topping Mazda, because the mid-range, enthusiast-oriented Club is more analogous to the 124's Abarth model. The Lusso matches the MX-5 GT with 17-inch alloys, heated leather seats, a 7.0-inch touchscreen with navigation, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The Mazda does come with a bevy of safety features as standard – blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, and automatic high-beam control – which look to be optional on the Fiat, so take that into consideration if you're thinking about buying one of the two. We enthusiasts are most interested in the matchup between the 124 Spider Abarth and the MX-5 Club. The scorpion-badged 124 starts at $29,190 and the Club at $29,420. You'll get more power – 10 additional ponies according to FCA – as well as all the performance goodies from the Club. There are Bilstein-tuned shocks, a mechanical limited-slip diff, and a front strut bar, plus a very imposing exhaust note. Recaro seats will be an optional extra, as will Brembo brakes (the MX-5 bundles them with BBS wheels). Finally, there's the 124 Spider Prima Edizione Lusso. The limited-edition wears Azzurro Italia (translation: pretty blue) paint and rings in at $35,995, which gets you a bunch of swag on top of the normal Lusso stuff. Oh, and if you choose the automatic transmission, you'll be punished with a $1,350 charge, regardless of which Fiata you go for. That's less than the premium Mazda charges for an automatic on an MX-5 Club or GT, but more than the $1,480 extra it charges for a two-pedal Sport.
