Time Capsule 1987 Mazda Rx7 Only 76,000 Miles Unmodified Clean And Original on 2040-cars
Milltown, New Jersey, United States
1987 Mazda RX7 with the 13B Rotary engine. Only 76,8xx Miles. The car was owned by an older man(early 60's)before me. He owned it since about 12,000 miles. The car was driven by him on weekends and short vacation trips to the Poconos in PA. The car is clean inside and out. The exterior is clean, smooth, and shiny. The glass is so clean that it looks new. Between this and the door jams you can tell that this car lived a sheltered life. No rust holes. The chassis is clean. All aluminum suspension arms. Exhaust is stainless steel. The engine bay is very very clean. The interior shows very little signs of use. The drivers seat has no wear marks or cracks. The passenger seat has no wear on it. Door panels are clean. The dashboard has good color and no cracks. All of the carpet and headliner is clean with no defects. The engine starts easily and runs well. The exhaust does not smoke. The engine runs quiet and smooth. The idle is a little up and down which is a trait with the rotary engine and it flattens out as the engine warms up. The 5th and 6th port actuators work just as the should opening to provide extra power at 3,500 RPM. This car has a buzzer that goes off at 8,000 RPM because it does not vibrate like a piston engine. The power is very linear and smooth. Acceleration does not take much. Cruising speed does not require more than 1/4 throttle. Throttle response is much quicker than a piston engine. The transmission shifts just like you would want it to. The brakes are all new in all four corners. New rotors, pads, calipers, and hardware. Ceramic pads, Centric rotors, and Wagner Calipers. The calipers have been painted with three layers of black ceramic paint before installation. The car handles very well. Suspension and steering is very tight and makes no noise over bumps. I have all of the maintenance records for this car since new. I also have the window sticker. This car was over $28,000 new in 1987. Not Cheap. The title is in my name and must be transferred into the new owners name upon pickup. The title is clean. Some things that I forgot the mention. The car has two small dents on the hood that you can see at the right angle on a sunny day. This car has had the tires replaced due to old age and never tread wear. They are at the point where this should be done again even though there is plenty of tread left. Tire for this car are very cheap. I thought the new owner might want to change the wheels and tires anyway. This car is not new and do not expect it to be perfect. It is how ever an extremely clean older car. It gets a lot of looks when ever it is seen. It is ready for car shows as it sits. I have seen many of these cars and to find one in this condition that has never been driven hard or ripped apart and modified is very rare. This is that car. |

Autoblog Minute: VW Q3 financial woes, 2015 Tokyo Motor Show
Fri, Oct 30 2015Consumer Reports pulls its Tesla recommendation, the U.S. Copyright Office offers a ruling affecting car owners, VW gets hit hard with third-quarter losses, and lots of exciting news from Tokyo. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Consumer Reports pulls its Tesla recommendation, the U.S. copyright office offers a ruling that affects car owners and gear heads, VW gets hit hard with third-quarter losses, and lots of exciting news from Tokyo. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. After a week away testing vehicles for Autoblog's Tech of the Year award, we're back in the office to recap the week in automotive news. [00:00:30] One of the things you might have missed was Consumer Reports pulling its recommendation of Tesla's Model S sedan. The blemish for Tesla comes after a tally of reviews from customer surveys. The most common problem areas for the Model S as cited by survey takers included: the drivetrain, power equipment, charging equipment, body and sunroof squeaks, rattles, and leaks. So lots of stuff. Though they could not ignore a score of "worse-than-average", Consumer Reports still [00:01:00] highlighted the fact that the Model S was "the best performing car" they've ever tested. Telsa CEO Elon Musk took to social media to defend his sedans saying: "Consumer Reports reliability survey includes a lot of early production cars. Already addressed in new cars." And, "Tesla gets top rating of any company in service. Most important, CR says 97% of owners expect their next car to be a Tesla (the acid test)." In Financial news, Volkswagen took a hit and reported an operating loss of [00:01:30] $3.84 billion. This is the first such loss for VW in 15 years. Toyota reclaimed the crown as the world's largest automaker as well. It's important that it's not all doom and gloom for VW though in Q3. Sales revenues were up and the company's automotive division boasts $30 billion dollars in liquid assets. It's a sizable war chest that will no doubt come in handy, as the company has yet to feel the full brunt of the diesel emissions scandal. Good news for gear heads. The US copyright office [00:02:00] ruled in favor of mechanics and car owners by granting an exception to existing copyright law. The law was originally meant to prevent software pirating and bootlegging of Hollywood movies.
Mazda Hazumi concept presages next Mazda2
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Looks like Mazda's big Geneva Motor Show debut is actually something quite small. Teased here, the Hazumi concept "points the way to the future" for the brand's subcompact offering, the Mazda2. Details are slim as of this writing, but from what we can see in the image above, the Hazumi will use the same Kodo design language found on the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5. We're big fans of this styling direction, so we fully expect the concept to be quite an attractive little number.
Hazumi means "bound" or "spring up" in Japanese, with Mazda saying this nomenclature is "particularly well-suited to a small car that appears to be bursting with energy." In other words, say goodbye to the friendly faced Mazda2 we've enjoyed since it launched in the United States in 2010. Instead, prepare for something decidedly more assertive, hopefully improving upon the already-great driving dynamics of the current subcompact. If we're honest, we can't wait.
Mazda will also use the Geneva show to debut its new small-displacement, 1.5-liter Skyactiv-D diesel engine. The automaker hasn't confirmed that this new fuel-efficient powerplant will be part of the Hazumi concept package, but considering the two are debuting alongside each other, it would seem to make sense. As for whether or not this engine could come stateside when the next Mazda2 launches, we're not holding our breath for that, especially considering the company's current woes with US-spec diesel engines.
2014 Mazda3 breaks cover early, in Euro-spec at least
Wed, 26 Jun 2013We're set to get a closer look at the US-spec 2014 Mazda3 later today, but AutoExpress has the first peek at the machine's European cousin (after initial leaks reportedly came from a Czech outlet). The photos show a compact that's taken plenty of design inspiration from its older sister, the Mazda6. That's excellent news, as the larger car's dynamic front fascia, accentuated fender arches and long nose translate well to the Mazda3. Inside, there are are new and improved material choices, and the longer wheelbase means occupants get to enjoy more room than before. There's also a larger trunk with 12.3 cubic feet of cargo capacity.
Buyers in the EU can get their hands on a 1.5-liter Skyactiv-G gasoline engine with 99 horsepower, though the old 2.0-liter four-cylinder will still be available in either 118 hp or 163 hp configuration. A 2.2-liter diesel tops out the engine choices.
The 2014 Mazda3 is lighter than its predecessor and boasts disk brakes and a multi-link rear suspension on every trim. That means this thing should be fun to shuffle around. Stay tuned for details on the US-spec variant later today, including a lot more images of the good-looking hatch.
