 Up for sale is my 1988 Mazda RX-7 convertible. The car is in excellent condition and shows better than newer cars! The car has had a factory repaint less than a year ago, all badges and stripping was removed and the doors and jams were all wrapped ($2200.00). The motor was refreshed with a complete seal kit including apex seals at 77,600 miles. The car had a complete tune-up last month at 128,300 miles that included

- fuel filter, throttle body and fuel injector service ($65.00), NGK Platinum Plugs ($55.00), Magnecore 8.5mm plug wires ($65.00), Castrol 20W-50 motor oil with Purolator Pure One oil filter ($25.00), Mobil 1 synthetic 75W-90 gear lube for the rear differential, and manual transmission flush and fill ($100.00), new oil pulsation dampener ($70.00), new idle air valve ($458.00), new bushing kit for manual shifter ($30.00).

-Car runs Idemitsu Racing Premix with 93 Octane Shell Gas (1/2 ounce per Gallon), it's not needed, it's just better for the fuel lines, injectors, and motor.

- Car has Kenwood Excelon head unit with aux port and USB hook-up for iphone/ipod/pandora radio.
Car has new Polk dash speakers, Memphis Audio door speakers, and Mazda Headrest speakers with powered amplifier, separate volume control and surround sound selection ($550.00). System sounds amazing!)

- New Classic Soft Trim upholstered seats when new seat speakers were put in ($400.00)

- New ACC grey carpet kit when car was repainted ($175.00)

The car is super clean and has been meticulously maintained and cared for throughout its life. The RX-7 has just 129,376 miles on it and runs flawlessly. It has also won cleanest stock car at classic car shows (which is hard due to it being an import surrounded by American made autos).  The only thing I could suggest this car needs is new floor mats as the ones I have take away from the interior of the car, they are clean, just not bright anymore. This cars average retail is $5,475, with a high retail of $8,450 according to NADA.  It qualifies for the high retail price.  The carfax is clean, but they score the car low due to number of owners, of which a few were simply one dealer selling to another.  Please contact me with questions at 941-786-4930, My name is Carl. Clean and clear title in hand. These pictures were taken on 1/12/14.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.

Mazda has right mix to chase 120,000 more US sales

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

The Mazda MX-5 Miata was named to Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list for the eighth year in a row and for the fourteenth time overall. The CX-5 tops or comes in as runner-up on every AOL Autos staff poll we take on compact crossovers. The Mazda3 is a perennial favorite among auto critics. That's three clear, unquestioned winners in the Mazda showroom. So, why does Mazda seem to struggle sometimes for recognition and clarity in the marketplace?
For that, I chatted with Mazda North American Operations President, Jim O'Sullivan, who has run the outfit since 2003. O'Sullivan, a former Ford sales and marketing executive who came to Mazda from Dearborn, MI when Ford owned a controlling stake in Mazda, is one of the quieter, but very menchy, leaders in the industry whose longevity in the job speaks to the stability of Mazda.

Mazda6 Skyactiv-D racecar gets first win at Road Atlanta

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Mazda has a long motorsports history, and one that is peppered with fascinating cars. The latest chapter in Mazda's racing story has just been written, as Joel Miller and Andrew Carbonell have driven the Visit Florida Racing Mazda6 Skyactiv-D to the car's first ever victory at the Rolex Grand-Am GX race at Road Atlanta. The win marks the first ever for Mazda's diesel-burning, production-car based Skyactiv-D racer, and the first win for a diesel-powered car in a Grand-Am event.
In fact, it was a particularly good day for the Mazda Motorsports team, as a Mazda6 also picked up the third finishing spot at Road Atlanta. Director of Mazda Motorsports, John M. Doonan, said of the racecar, "We've always said that the best street cars make the best racecars, and, with more than half of the components in the race engine being shared with the street engine, this program is a solid proof-point."
SpeedSource Engineering, which helped to build the Mazda6 racer, was greatly heartened by the car's performance in just it's fourth-ever race. Owner Sylvain Tremblay called the victory, "a tribute to the thousands of hours of hard work over many months," continuing, "The normal plan with a new car is to spend the first year in development, the second year seeking race wins, and challenging for a championship in year three. We are already at our year-two status after four races. We can't wait to get to the Belle Isle course in Detroit for round five."
