2004 Mazda Rx-8 Coupe 4-door 1.3l on 2040-cars
Fayetteville, North Carolina, United States
2004 Mazda RX-8 4-door COUPE Pretty unique vehicle, very practical for a "sports car." The rear suicide doors are great for accessibility. Fun to drive too. It was idling a bit rough, so I had the engine decarboned using the known process, and it runs much better now, shifts well also. **I bought this vehicle for my brother in law that was overseas, as he requested, turns out he bought a truck in the meantime, so I am STUCK with this car!! I drive it to and from work and it drives very well. I put (4) NEW TIRES on it as soon as I got it, they have less than 300 miles on them now. Like I said, I have too many vehicles so I am SIMPLY selling this one as-is. It has a dent on the left side door and trunk, paint scratches misc locations, all door seal and open/close perfectly, nothing affecting function at all. Purely cosmetic. I was going to have it all repaired but given the circumstance I decided to just sell it as-is. This is an opportunity to purchase a very unique sports car, for a great price! Thanks for looking and I hope you get it asap! All items sold as-is, no warranty, no refund, no exchange, no exceptions. Vehicle pick up is expected within reasonable time. Payment arrangements are expected within a reasonable time as well please. Do not bid if your feedback is less than 10 transaction history, contact me first please. If you bid, and/or win this auction, you will be required to comply with standard contractual obligations that come with policy (actually pay for the vehicle.) Failure to do so will result in notification of the proper agency. Thanks for your bid/interest. Any questions please feel free to contact me asap. Vehicle pick up in person, OR if you are shipping it please make logistical arrangements with me after purchasing so I may render any necessary assistance if needed to the shipper. This vehicle is listed locally, I reserve the right to end this auction early if it sells accordingly. SELLING IT AS IS TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER! MAKE ME AN OFFER AND TAKE IT PLEASE. CLEAR TITLE IN-HAND. |

Five vehicles named Top Safety Pick+ including new Civic, MKZ
Fri, 08 Mar 2013In an attempt to help push vehicle safety to a higher level, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety created a stricter Top Safety Pick+ rating last year, which incorporates a brutal small overlap test and requires cars to get Good ratings in four out of the five categories (and no less than Acceptable in the fifth). Joining the list of the safest cars of 2013, the 2013 Volvo XC60, Lincoln MKZ, Honda Civic (sedan and coupe) and the 2014 Mazda6 have all received the coveted TSP+ rating.
The Mazda6 and Lincoln MKZ have both been completely redesigned, and both received Acceptable ratings in the small overlap test. The Honda Civic, coming off its emergency refresh for 2013, is the first small car to be subjected to the small overlap test, and IIHS says that one of the car's many upgrades includes a stiffer front structure allowing it to receive Good ratings in all categories. Similarly, the XC60 gets all Good ratings thanks to, according to IIHS, Volvo updating the airbag software allowing the side airbags to inflate during the small overlap test.
The 2014 Subaru Forester has not yet been subjected to the small overlap test, so it must make do with just a Top Safety Pick rating until the IIHS tests small utility vehicles, which is expected to happen later in the spring.
Mazda reports strong Skyactiv sales, plans to boost output 25%
Tue, 27 Aug 2013Mazda is set to expand production of its Skyactiv engines after critical and commercial acclaim for the fuel-sipping powerplants. The Japanese manufacturer has a number of plans in the works to bump up production, with the first being a 25-percent increase in output from its Hiroshima, Japan engine facility.
Besides adding a new line, Mazda will modify the line that built MZR engines, a family of mills that includes the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in the Mazdaspeed3 and the 2.0-liter found in the MX-5 Miata. The bump in production is just part of Mazda's goal of selling 1.7 million vehicles globally by 2016, with 80 percent of those vehicles expected to wear a Skyactiv badge.
Mazda also builds Skyactiv engines at a joint-venture facility with Ford, in Changan, China, while a Mexican facility will go online by March of 2014. Skyactiv engines currently power the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5.

Mon, 30 Sep 2013Mazda is voluntarily recalling 161,400 Mazda6 cars due to door latch mounting screws that may loosen, which could cause a door to open while the vehicle is in motion, thereby increasing the risk of accident or injury. The recall covers 2009 through 2013 Mazda6 models manufactured between February 4, 2008 and August 24, 2012.
The recall is expected to begin by October 18, 2013. Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will provide repairs free of charge. Scroll down for the official recall notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
