This is a 1979 Limited Edition RX7 in which there were only 3000 produced world wide. Here is a chance to own a very unique piece of rotary history. This car has all the bells and whistles not found on another rx7 of that year- a/c, cruise, glass and hardtop sunroof, special upholstery, power antenna and hatch release, aluminum alloy rims with matching spare, special Beat Black paint with red and silver pinstriping, not found on any other model of rx7.

This has been my restoration project for 10 years now. All the new items put on in the last few months include: paint job and pinstripes, upholstery and shifter boot, floor mats, windshield and Toyo tires with 70,000 mile rating.

Engine specs: Rebuilt 13b rotary engine (intake porting performed for better flow) with no more than 10,000 miles on it, Holley 650 cfm double pumper carb, jetted and adjusted by Racing Beat. Full custom exhaust from Racing Beat including headers. Clutch, master cylinder and related bearings replaced at same time. High performance spark plug wires and NGK plugs.

"Roxy" was my first car I purchased with my own money after high school, and has been such a fun car. I am the third owner and have continued to care for this gem in the same great way the previous owners have. Most services have been kept track of in a little note book by all previous owners. Original sales receipt, warranty info and poster advertisement is still with the car. I know it would be more valuable to have original engine in it, but the first owner burnt up the engine and replaced it with a different one. So I came across a 13b and thought why not?

This car wants to be revved. I've driven it very conservatively, but can't help to put a Mitsubishi eclipse, Acura TL and a Mustang GT in their place. I tried one high speed test after the engine was broke in, and I buried the 135 mph speedometer, so it hit at least 140. Cruising with the sunroof up, and your shades on while the sun sets, is an amazing experience.

Please contact me by e-mail for any questions what so ever. Locals are welcome to test drive the car. I will only accept cash, cashier check, PayPal payment. Local pick up only or buyer pays for shipping and I release the car after full payment has cleared.

2014 Mazda6 recalled due to fuel overfill fire risk

Fri, 02 May 2014

Mazda is recalling 19,000 Mazda6 sedans from model year 2014, over concerns that the fuel tanks can be filled up too much. What is it with Mazda and fuel tanks?
The big concern is, obviously, spillage when filling up. There's also a risk that a radical temperature swing could cause the fuel volume to expand, causing a full tank to spill over without the driver knowing about it. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, if the fuel spills over, it could end up in something called the charcoal canister, which helps with the car's emissions. If it fills up the canister, it could leak out onto the road. None of this is really desirable.
The affected vehicles were all built between October 25, 2012 and May 9, 2013. It's unclear if there have been any fires due to this problem. Dealers should have been notified by now, while owners should begin receiving official recall notifications very soon.

Lexus, Mazda win KBB 5-Year Cost To Own Awards

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

We focus a lot on what new cars are like to drive, but it's difficult on a one-week loan to really get a sense of what a car is like to live with. Sure, we try to recreate that sense with our long-term vehicles, but even after a year, it's impossible to know fully learn about a car, particularly in terms of reliability and cost of repairs. For 2014 model year vehicles, Kelley Blue Book has put together a list of the most affordable vehicles over a five-year period.
At the tippy top of the list are Mazda and Lexus, with the Zoom-Zoom automaker winning the award for best non-luxury brand. Lexus, meanwhile, was the most affordable luxury marque over a five-year period. It's interesting to note, though, that not a single Mazda won its segment in this year's awards.
General Motors did quite well, taking eight segments, including both the subcompact and plug-in segments, with the gas-powered Chevrolet Spark and Spark EV. The Chevy Camaro SS and ZL1 took the high-performance car award. Toyota was well represented, with five winners split between the main brand (Corolla, Prius C and Tacoma) and Lexus (LS and RX).

World Car of the Year finalists announced

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

To say the 2014 Geneva Motor Show was packed full of news is an understatement as big as the show's home at the Palexpo convention center. Despite everything that we were able to cover during this year's show, there's still more coming out of Switzerland, including the announcement of the finalists for the 2014 World Car of the Year Awards.
We reported on the original list of finalists over three weeks ago, and now, that initial list has been pared down to three finalists for each of the five awards. The finalists were announced at a press conference by frequent Autoblog contributor and co-chair of the awards, Matt Davis (above).
The finalists for the overall title of 2014 World Car of the Year are the Audi A3, the BMW 4 Series and the Mazda3. The World Luxury Car of the Year will be either the Bentley Flying Spur, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class or the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, while the Performance Car of the Year will be awarded to the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, the Ferrari 458 Speciale or the Porsche 911 GT3 (which, um, yeah...).
