Two very minor dents, neither of which have chipped the original paint."

 I am selling my 1993 Mazda RX7 that is in incredible shape.  Pictures nor words will do this car justice.  The chassis has ~100K miles and the body is 100% original with incredible original paint.  The body has two very minor dings from a door or similar over the years but neither has chipped the paint.  There is one spot about the size of golf ball on the rear bumper cover where the clear coat has faded (and only in this one spot).   Interior is in perfect shape and everything works.  Sound system is a Kenwood head unit with sub and amp.  Very nice quality sound throughout the car.  Absolutely nothing is flawed inside the car. All doors, deck and hood open and close easily and solidly.  Not a spec of rust anywhere on the car.  Bilstein shocks and lowering springs (done right) all the way around the car.  Larger cross drilled and vented rotors with Mazda racing calipers at all four corners.  Light weight SSR wheels all the way around with Yokohama rubber.  The rear tires should be replaced as they are worn.  (honestly, this car will spin the tires under moderate acceleration in 2nd gear, no burnouts have ever been done since I have owned the car).

Engine modified and rebuilt 13K miles ago with over $13K of receipts. Some of the modifications are as follows:

  • Apexi ECU and Power Commander Programmer (if you don't know what this is, you really need to check it out)
  • Greddy Profec Spec S electronic boost controller (set to 12 psi and easily capable of 17 psi without an effort) to control peak boost and ramp rate of the boost
  • Stock Twin Turbos upgraded to a single GT35R turbo
  • Greddy BOV
  • Greddy aluminum induction tube
  • Ported and polished throttle body
  • Street ported rotor housings
  • Ported and polished oil passages
  • Large Nippondenso injectors
  • All vacuum lines replaced / minimized
  • Twin oil coolers
  • Huge air to air inter-cooler
  • HKS ignition
  • Racing Beat Exhaust
  • 4.30:1 gears

Enough of the parts info....  Here is what you really want to know:  This thing is ridiculously fast.  This is NOT a car for a kid or even a young adult.  I've drag raced in the NMRA for years and this street car has more rolling power and acceleration than my 10.31 second Mustang.  The kicker is this car handles like a road course car.  It was actually built and owned by the previous local president of the RX7 club who also had his own rotary performance distribution store.  This car was his show car but was built to run and not just shine.  The car pumps 420hp to the tires as it is right now.  Turn up the boost and it is just plain uncontrollable and dangerous.  It is the most fun car I have EVER owned and I don't really want to sell it but I know I will either kill myself in the car or get my license taken away so I am trying to do the responsible thing and sell the car before its too late (one way or another).

The absolute only things wrong with the car is a very tiny chip in the windshield and it has the typical 5th gear grind when engaging 5th gear (however 5th is only used at 70+ and there is no hesitation, just a small grind the second it is going in)

Everywhere I go, this car gets a ton of attention.  Non-stop compliments are a given.  Embarrassing Corvettes, Mustangs, Camaros and even motorcycles at will is a given as well.  This car has a slightly better power to weight ratio as a crotch rocket bike.  The ONLY challenge is getting the tires to stay planted.  It was not a cliche' when I said it will light up the tires at the top of 2nd when the boost is at full bore.

Now for the rules:

This car is my pride and joy, I welcome anyone to come look at the car but no one will be allowed to drive the car until cash in hand.

Local pick up only.

The car CAN be driven anywhere, it does not get hot.

I will not ship the car but I will help you get the car picked up if you do the shipping logistics details.

$500 non-refundable deposit via PayPal at the time of auction end, pick up and full payment CASH within 7 days.

Please do not waste my time if you can't afford the car.

Please call me for additional details @ 317.379.1749

Car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Mazda2 sedan images released ahead of Thailand reveal

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Mazda will let customers put some junk in the trunk of its Mazda2 with the introduction of a new four-door model at the upcoming Thailand International Motor Expo on November 28. While the show is still days away from beginning, the Japanese automaker is already spilling some of the details about the sedan variant of its fetching subcompact. The four-door and traditional hatchback versions of the Mazda2 will both hit Thailand in early 2015. The two of them are essentially identical other than the added trunk and adjusted rear styling for the sedan. It basically makes the model look like a shrunken down version of the Mazda3 sedan, which isn't a bad thing at all. The company has big expectations for the little car because they're already Mazda's bestselling passenger models in Thailand. Both models will be sold with the SkyActiv-D 1.5 diesel in Thailand, which gives them lower taxes under the government's low-emission, compact car incentive plan. According to a previous rumor, a gasoline-fueled mill could join the lineup eventually, too. There's also gossip that the Mazda2 sedan could eventually be sold in Australia and Europe, but US sales are still a mystery. When asked about the four-door here, Mazda spokesperson Eric Booth told Autoblog, "We'll have more to say on Mazda2 at a later date. Right now, our focus is on the launches of the all-new CX-3 and MX-5 as well as the refreshed CX-5 and Mazda6." The company is showing all of those models at this week's Los Angeles Auto Show. Mazda to Debut the All-new Mazda2 Sedan at Thailand International Motor Expo - Goes on sale in Thailand alongside the hatchback model early 2015 - HIROSHIMA, Japan-Mazda Motor Corporation will debut the sedan model of the all-new Mazda2 (known as Mazda Demio in Japan) at the Thailand International Motor Expo 2014*1 on November 28, 2014. The all-new Mazda2 compact sedan features handsome proportions and bold styling, a high-quality, sporty interior and a combination of excellent driving performance and outstanding environmental and safety performance. The all-new Mazda2 hatchback will also be exhibited at the expo; the first time the model has been displayed to the public in Thailand. Both the sedan and the hatchback feature the SKYACTIV-D 1.5, Mazda's newly-developed small-displacement clean diesel engine. The all-new Mazda2 goes on sale in Thailand in early 2015.

2014 Mazda6: Winter's End Update

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

The Winter Without End is seemingly dead. Outside my office windows, my brown and yellow lawn is fully exposed to the increasingly powerful sunshine, the morning birdsong is louder than anything until the garbage trucks start rolling, and I'm seriously considering having the summer tires put back on my personal fleet. That last one is a little scary, as I'm a firm believer in the April Snow Jinx, but you get the idea.
The long-term Mazda6 has also long since left my driveway. Looking back on my notes from the time it was in my charge, however, I see all remarks are dominated by one highlighted section at the top: "worst winter drive of all time." I hardly need the reminder, to be honest. Here's what happened.
When the Mazda showed up at my door, we'd already fitted the thing with its new winter rubber: Bridgestone Blizzaks. Plunking down for dedicated snow tires was a near necessity this year - as it almost always is in Michigan. We didn't see much reprieve from snow-choked, iced over roads here in Ann Arbor, and the knobbier rubber proved invaluable in getting me out of my house time and again.

2014 Mazda6 gets up to 38 mpg, priced from $20,880*

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

The 2014 Mazda6 starts at $20,880 - *excluding a $795 destination fee - and will offer buyers up to 37 mpg highway in base form. That money will fetch buyers a 2.5-liter four-cylinder paired to a six-speed manual - a setup packing 184 horsepower and 185 pound-feet of torque. The Skyactiv powertrain is good, Mazda says, for 25 miles per gallon in the city and 37 mpg on the highway. Stepping up to the six-speed automatic gearbox will yield an additional 1 mpg in city and highway driving for up to 38 mpg highway. Despite offering more equipment, the base 2014 model carries a modest $155 price increase over its 2013 predecessor.
Available trims include i Sport starting at $22,495 and i Touring at $24,495 (*both excluding destination charges). The latter swaps the standard car's 17-inch wheels for 19-inch rollers and includes dual-zone automatic climate control and leatherette sport seats among other niceties. Buyers can snap up a tech package that includes TomTom navigation and an 11-speaker Bose Centerpoint sound system for $2,000. Keyless entry, rain-sensing wipers and the company's Smart City Brake Support are all part of that kit as well. Check out the full press release below for more information, and look for more details on the diesel-powered 2014 Mazda6 as we get closer to that vehicle's launch.
