Hello,

I am selling a 1993 Mazda RX-7 (RX7) Convertible with just under 92k miles on the chassis, which had been custom made to be a convertible by the company in California called Newport Convertibles, who advised me that they only recall making a hand full of these conversions due to the cost of the conversion ($10,000)! This is not a hack job, as there are 3 reinforcement beams, 2 of which are running on the left and right side of the car and connect with the center, as well as one connecting the rear 2 strut bar towers together. Bose system is present in the rear even after the conversion. The handling of this car is not compromised and a bargain to anyone who is interested in owning one of the very few and probably the only one you will ever see for sale!

The interior was re-done in custom Tan color to include the rear bins. Exterior is a custom brilliant brown/maroon mix (changes shades from dark brown at night to lighter maroon in the light).

The car is almost all original and comes with Mazda RX-7 accessories like the splash guards, spoiler, aluminum door sills, R1/R2 strut bar/front lip and 99 spec converted tail lights, new battery, silicone vacuum job and low mileage twin turbos with PFS silicone couplers in the pressure piping, Fluidyne aluminum radiator, PFS 3" down-pipe and K&N Lifetime Drop in Intake Air Filter. The engine and engine harness was replaced by the dealer under warranty within the first 3 years of the car's life, so the engine mileage is less then what is on the chassis. All of these were put/done for aesthetics (optional Mazda OEM rx-7 specific parts/upgrades) and as part of maintenance and upgrades over the years. The car was daily driven for the past few years, but due to other cars and projects would like to sell as I own three 3rd Gen RX-7s and will be happy with just 2!

Pics of various angles of the car are available and can be provided upon request.

Please contact me if you have any questions...I'll be more then happy to provide any details you need.

Mazda recalling 18k Mazda6 and RX-8 models over airbag inflators

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Faulty Takata airbag inflators keep taking their toll on automakers. Mazda is the latest to be affected in the US by announcing a recall covering 18,050 Mazda6 and RX-8 models to replace the front, passenger-side airbags. Specifically, the campaign covers 18,000 Mazda6 units from the 2003 and 2004 model years built between May 29, 2002, and March 4, 2004, and 50 RX-8 vehicles from the 2004 model year made between June 25, 2003, and June 30, 2003.
As with the rest of the vehicles with these faulty inflators, it's possible for the part to rupture when deploying the airbag and potentially spray shrapnel at the occupant. Mazda's defect notice goes into a bit more detail than most about the problem saying: "some propellant wafers have been produced with an inadequate compaction force, or may have been exposed to uncontrolled moisture conditions (those wafers could have absorbed moisture beyond the allowable limits)."
This isn't Mazda's first difficulty with Takata-supplied airbags this year. The company was among the seven automakers that recalled vehicles in hot-weather states over the inflators. It also had to recently fix 42,000 Mazda6 vehicles in China over the issue.

Mazda6 Skyactiv-D Racecar ready to bring diesel to Grand-Am

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

It may not be quite as radical as some of the company's past rotary racers, but the new Mazda6 Skyactiv-D racecar does have a notable powertrain underhood: the automaker's brand-new clean diesel four-cylinder engine.
Three of these new diesel-powered Mazda6 racers will take to the track in the Grand-Am GX class of the upcoming 2013 Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 26, with five drivers on each team. The car you see above, number 70, is sponsored by Mazda's longtime motorsports partner, SpeedSource.
Check out our full gallery of high-res images live from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show above and feel free to read through the related press release from Mazda below.
