This auction is for a 1987 Mazda RX7 Turbo 2 sports car. The car has a rebuilt title and is not currently running, but needs a small fix to re-connect power to the fuel pump. The car had a fuel cut off switch that broke...while trying to repair it I shorted out the wires and believe that I blew a fuse to the fuel pump...the car ran fine prior to the switch fiasco. I meant to fix the problem but family and business matters kept me from it. The car was in good shape but the seats were getting worn. There are several little things that need fixed up, but most are small, cosmetic projects, such as the seats and stereo. Prior to having the fuel pump problem, new tires and rims were put on (American Racing Rims...less than 5K miles on them). This would make a great project car as the engine is in good shape with no known problems other than the fuel pump power. The body is in decent shape with no rust that I noticed. The car has been sitting for 5 years, so I don't know how easy it will start, but as I said earlier, the engine and car ran great prior to the fuel cutoff switch going bad. Please look at the photo to get a better idea of the shape and condition the RX7 is in and feel free to ask any questions. I would have included more photos but the car was sitting in a wet, muddy area from the recent rains and I didn't want to wade thru the mud to get to the car's interior.
Delivery will be via local pickup or arranged by the new owner. As mentioned, the car won't start currently, but a quick wiring fix should restore the power to the fuel pump and allowing the car to run properly.

2014 Mazda6 i-Eloop to net 40 mpg hwy, 28 mpg city
Fri, 05 Jul 2013Even before Mazda unveiled the 2014 Mazda6, it had introduced its innovative, non-hybrid i-Eloop (Intelligent Energy Loop) brake regeneration system. This technology converts kinetic energy into usable electricity using the alternator, a DC/DC converter and a capacitor mounted just behind the front fascia. During deceleration, the alternator captures energy that is then stored in the capacitor, which can later be used to directly power electric devices like climate control and audio systems. When i-Eloop power is used, it reduces the load on the engine and helps to conserve fuel.
Now available on the Mazda6, i-Eloop is only available on the $29,695 Grand Touring trim level as a part of the $2,080 GT Technology Package, meaning that buyers desiring i-Eloop will have to spend at least $31,775 (not including destination). The added price of this technology should be worth it for those looking for optimal fuel economy as the i-Eloop, combined with the package's active grille shutters, will bump the sedan's fuel economy numbers up to 28 miles per gallon city and 40 mpg highway - both are improvements of 2 mpg over the standard Mazda6 Grand Touring. The GT Technology Package also includes a Sport mode, lane departure warning, high beam control, radar cruise control and forward obstruction warning - the latter two technologies are currently offered in a $900 package that is being discontinued.
i-Eloop will eventually be offered on other Mazda products including the 2014 Mazda3. Scroll down for the official press release on the Mazda6's fuel-saving i-Eloop technology.

Mazda engineers urging execs for more RWD models
Wed, 02 Oct 2013According to Edmunds, Mazda engineers are pressuring the company to create more rear-wheel-drive models, in an effort to better differentiate itself from its rivals. This push is reportedly coming from middle and senior engineers within the company, and these folks at Mazda believe this rear-drive strategy would allow the automaker to produce more distinctive, fun to drive cars. Mazda discontinued the rear-drive (and rotary-engined) RX-8 a few years ago, leaving the MX-5 Miata as the company's only RWD offering.
As enthusiasts, we're fully on board with Mazda offering more rear-drive cars, but unsurprisingly, the company's top management isn't exactly keen on the idea - and with good reason. First and foremost, the cost associated with redesigning fresh architecture for new models would be very high, and considering the fact that Mazda hasn't exactly been raking in the dough lately, an expensive new venture like this doesn't make a whole lot of sense. What's more, Mazda's latest front-drive models - the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5 - have been very well-received, and are helping the company gain sales momentum.
But that doesn't mean there aren't other options. Edmunds reminds us that Mazda is already partnering with Alfa Romeo on the next-generation Miata, and if this collaboration is successful, perhaps the relationship could bear additional fruit. After all, Alfa Romeo is said to be working on returning to its rear-wheel-drive roots, so Mazda's engineers might be able to make a case for more RWD goodness after all.
