Time Capsule 1987 Mazda Rx7 Only 76,000 Miles Unmodified Clean And Original on 2040-cars
Milltown, New Jersey, United States
1987 Mazda RX7 with the 13B Rotary engine. Only 76,8xx Miles. The car was owned by an older man(early 60's)before me. He owned it since about 12,000 miles. The car was driven by him on weekends and short vacation trips to the Poconos in PA. The car is clean inside and out. The exterior is clean, smooth, and shiny. The glass is so clean that it looks new. Between this and the door jams you can tell that this car lived a sheltered life. No rust holes. The chassis is clean. All aluminum suspension arms. Exhaust is stainless steel. The engine bay is very very clean. The interior shows very little signs of use. The drivers seat has no wear marks or cracks. The passenger seat has no wear on it. Door panels are clean. The dashboard has good color and no cracks. All of the carpet and headliner is clean with no defects. The engine starts easily and runs well. The exhaust does not smoke. The engine runs quiet and smooth. The idle is a little up and down which is a trait with the rotary engine and it flattens out as the engine warms up. The 5th and 6th port actuators work just as the should opening to provide extra power at 3,500 RPM. This car has a buzzer that goes off at 8,000 RPM because it does not vibrate like a piston engine. The power is very linear and smooth. Acceleration does not take much. Cruising speed does not require more than 1/4 throttle. Throttle response is much quicker than a piston engine. The transmission shifts just like you would want it to. The brakes are all new in all four corners. New rotors, pads, calipers, and hardware. Ceramic pads, Centric rotors, and Wagner Calipers. The calipers have been painted with three layers of black ceramic paint before installation. The car handles very well. Suspension and steering is very tight and makes no noise over bumps. I have all of the maintenance records for this car since new. I also have the window sticker. This car was over $28,000 new in 1987. Not Cheap. The title is in my name and must be transferred into the new owners name upon pickup. The title is clean. Some things that I forgot the mention. The car has two small dents on the hood that you can see at the right angle on a sunny day. This car has had the tires replaced due to old age and never tread wear. They are at the point where this should be done again even though there is plenty of tread left. Tire for this car are very cheap. I thought the new owner might want to change the wheels and tires anyway. This car is not new and do not expect it to be perfect. It is how ever an extremely clean older car. It gets a lot of looks when ever it is seen. It is ready for car shows as it sits. I have seen many of these cars and to find one in this condition that has never been driven hard or ripped apart and modified is very rare. This is that car. |

Rumored Mazda CX-3 may not be for US
Tue, 18 Feb 2014Mazda has used its Kodo design language to make some of the most attractive, affordable cars in the world right now, with the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5 (pictured above), but it still lacks a crossover in the smaller class, which are becoming popular on the world market. It seems like a natural fit then, that the Japanese company would shrink its CUV design even smaller for a CX-3 to fill the gap. However, a rumor suggests that the compact might not make it to these shores.
The Mazda2-based crossover is due later this summer in Japan and is launching in Europe and emerging markets later, according to Automotive News citing a report in Japan's Nikkei newspaper. The little CUV would cost between 1.5 million yen and 2.0 million yen ($14,700-$19,500) in Japan and be available with diesel and petrol engine options. However, the report made no mention of selling it in North America. There is a glimmer of a chance for the CX-3 here. Mazda is upgrading its Mexican factory to 230,000 annual unit capacity by 2016, which gives it the room to add the new vehicle.
While the midsize CUVs are hugely popular in the US, compacts like the Buick Encore are still a small portion of things. If Mazda could time the CX-3's launch right here, it could take advantage of the lack of competition.

Only one small car out of 12 tested earned a good grade in the latest round of crash-test results compiled by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The Mini Cooper Countryman received a "good" ranking on the organization's small-front overlap test.
2014 Mazda6: June 2013
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The 2014 Mazda6 is our most recent addition to the Autoblog long-term fleet, and we spent the month of June getting to know our Soul Red tester, generally enjoying the honeymoon phase of this twelve-month relationship. During June, the Mazda6 spent the majority of its time with director of photography Drew Phillips, who in addition to putting together this pretty gallery of our rakish long-term car, had a lot to say about it as a daily driver.
You see, not too long before Mazda delivered our long-term 6, Drew bought a 2014 CX-5 crossover to support his growing family. The CX-5 was the first vehicle to use Mazda's full suite of Skyactiv technologies, and we've generally enjoyed the good-to-drive CUV. A lot of that CX-5 goodness lies beneath the more shapely lines of this sleek Mazda6 sedan, so it's only fitting that Drew had a lot of comparisons between Mazda's two housemates during his month behind the wheel.
