1985 Mazda RX-7 RX7
GSL-SE This is
originally a California car and is just out of storage. It was stored in an
enclosed trailer in California for eight years before I purchased the car. The
car retains all of its original paint and original equipment (the only thing
that isn't original to the car is the radio). It has been well cared for and
maintained. The car runs, drives and
stops perfectly. The tires are in excellent shape with lots of tread left.
There are two sun roofs, one glass and one that is the body color of the car. The car
drives smoothly, brakes straight and accelerates like it should. On the
freeway, the car tracks straight, true and smooth. The engine does not and has not
ever exhibited any of the flooding problems that so many others experience with
the 13B fuel injected engine. The engine runs well and has plenty of power and
revs smoothly. The engine starts immediately, and there is no smoke from the
engine either on start up or while driving. The air
conditioning blows cold, the heater blows hot, the cruise control works and the
clock keeps time. The electric windows work, but are a little slow going up.
Since there is an aftermarket radio, the center console four-way speaker
control is not connected. The electric antenna does not raise up, but I have a brand
new replacement electric antenna still in the box that will be included with
the sale of the car. Overall the
exterior of the car is in excellent condition. There are some rock chips on the
nose and a couple of door dings, things that you would expect for a car that is
30 years old, but overall, the paint is all original and in really good
condition, as can be seen the pictures. The flat black window trim could
probably use a repaint, but it is just wind-worn and I’ll leave that up to the
new owner to repaint or leave as is. I wanted to leave it as original as
possible for the new owner. All the glass is in good shape and there are no
cracks. There is one small rock chip in the windshield on the passenger side
that is not very noticeable. The interior is in very good condition. The only
flaw is the steering wheel. The top of the steering wheel looks as if someone
chewed off the top of it. As mentioned earlier, the only non-stock item in the
interior is the radio. The carpets are in very good condition, having been
protected by aftermarket floor mats. The seat upholstery is in excellent
condition. The seats travel easily in their tracks and the seat back
adjustments work as they should. Included
with the car is a front nose “Bra” in like new condition (not installed) and
louvers for the rear hatch (also not installed). I have a
clear Washington state title in my name. The car is available for viewing by
appointment and I encourage you to do so. Down payment to be made by Paypal. Balance of the sale amount to to be paid by cashier's check within 7 days of the auction end. Shipping is
the responsibility of the buyer, including shipping arrangements and costs. I
will assist with the shipping on my end to the best of my ability. I will store
the car for up to two weeks after the end of the auction to allow for time to
arrange shipping. |

Aussie Mazda MX-5 Miata specs leak suggests power loss
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Mazda's 2016 MX-5 Miata reveal didn't include much in the way of specifications, but the car's debut seems to have blown the lid off of the rumormill, with the latest word out of Australia including fresh claims of curb weight and engine output.
Before delving into the findings from Motoring.com, we're going to take a moment to find a few grains of salt. It's not that we don't trust the Oz publication, it's just that we wouldn't be surprised to learn their car's specifications will vary from that of our eventual North American car.
Of course, we don't expect the footprint of the new ND model to itself to differ much - it will still be the most compact Miata ever - overall length is expected to check in at just over 154 inches - that's about 1.4 inches shorter than the original NA Miata and over 4 inches shorter than today's NC generation, yet it'll ride atop a longer wheelbase and be slightly wider while sitting lower to the ground.
Mazda previews 2016 Miata Global MX-5 Cup racer
Wed, 05 Nov 2014At this point, we all know that the Mazda MX-5 Miata is a highly capable racing platform. Mazda even claims that the car is the most road-raced model in the world. Fittingly, then, the Japanese brand is making a huge announcement about the future of motorsport for its next-generation convertible. The MX-5 Cup is going worldwide in 2016 as the MX-5 Global Cup, and all of the racers are getting behind the wheel of the upcoming fourth-gen Miata, similar to the gorgeous redhead pictured above.
"It has long been our goal to see Mazda fans around the world competing in identical MX-5s, and the launch of the 2016 MX-5 Miata is the perfect time to make this goal a reality," said Masahiro Moro, Managing Executive Officer in charge of Global Sales, Marketing and Customer Service for Mazda in the company's announcement.
The racing version makes its grand debut at this year's SEMA show, although at the moment it's really more of a concept. Mazda confirms that the racer uses the 2.0-liter SkyActiv four-cylinder, but the other important parts like tires, suspension and safety equipment are not yet determined. The cars "will be sold ready to race from a single supplier," according to automaker's announcement for the series.
Half of Chinese car buyers won't shop Japanese over hard feelings
Mon, May 26 2014The hard feelings between China and Japan is no real secret. Besides modern-day disputes, the two countries have had a long-running enmity that dates back to well before the atrocities of World War II. All things considered, then, it shouldn't be a shock that half of Chinese car buyers wouldn't consider a Japanese car. This survey, conducted by Bernstein Research, found that 51 percent of 40,000 Chinese consumers wouldn't even consider a Japanese car – which, again, isn't really surprising, when you consider stories like this. According to Bernstein, the most troubling thing is the location of these sentiments – smaller, growing cities where the population is going to need sets of wheels. We imagine it wouldn't be as big of an issue in traffic-clogged Shanghai or Beijing, but these small cities are going to become a major focus for automakers. "Nationalistic feelings are an impediment. [Japanese] premium brands will struggle," analyst Max Warburton wrote in a research note, according to The Wall Street Journal. Things will improve for Japanese makes, although China will remain a challenge, with Warburton writing, "the one thing that comes out most clearly is that most Chinese really want a German car. While we expect Japanese brands to continue to recover market share this year, ultimately the market will belong to the Germans." There are a few other insights from the study. According to WSJ, Japanese brands are viewed better than Korean brands, and they're seen as more comfortable than the offerings from Germany or the US, despite the fact that everyone in China apparently wants a German car. This is a tough position for the Japanese makes to be in, as there's really not a lot they can do to win favor with Chinese buyers. It will be interesting to see how this plays out, particularly as the importance of the PRC continues to increase year after year.
