1985 Mazda Rx-7 Gsl Coupe 2-door 1.1l on 2040-cars
|
Up for sale is my 1985 Mazda RX7 GSL with 133k on
it. It is neither a showroom vehicle nor a basket case. You’ll get a garaged
car that’s a daily driver you can enjoy and work on along the way. It is in
good as is condition, being fun and reliable. Surprisingly it gets much
attention from different generations of people. Mark my words, these collectible
vehicles are getting closer to having their day in the sun. Here
are the pros… There
are no major rust issues with the car; the paint is average
with some clearcoat fading in some areas (see pics). It has a newer CD
player with a phone jack for your Smartphone. It also has Sirius satellite radio. I do have the original factory radio cassette with equalizer
included. Has the removable
sunroof, power windows, power mirrors (driver side doesn’t work), and
cruise control. Recent
service includes the front/rear brakes, front rotors, and brake
fluid flushed. Other
repairs in my ownership are: all belts replaced, changed spark
plugs, master cylinder replaced, thermostat replaced, igniter replaced, and
newer battery. Here
are the cons… Air
conditioning doesn’t work (never looked into, may be
a leak that needs sealing and perhaps an opportunity to convert to 134a coolant).
Heat does work. Power
steering doesn’t function due to a leak. I’ve already
replaced the pump (But I have no issues with driving). There
is a surface scrape on the very front corner of the right quarter
panel and bumper (see pics). HOWEVER,
I have a car bra (never used) that will cover the scrapes if you don’t want to
initially paint. It will come with the car. I have also a new unused, unpainted bumper cover and all used replacement parts (light
covers, rubber molding) to repair the scraped area should you repair and paint
down the road. It includes a shop manual (a reproduced edition). A $500.00 deposit via PayPal is required to hold the
vehicle and the balance is due upon pick up with a certified check only. Car
will be for sale locally in Cincinnati, Ohio. Feel free to contact me with
questions. |

Mazda previews 2016 Miata Global MX-5 Cup racer
Wed, 05 Nov 2014At this point, we all know that the Mazda MX-5 Miata is a highly capable racing platform. Mazda even claims that the car is the most road-raced model in the world. Fittingly, then, the Japanese brand is making a huge announcement about the future of motorsport for its next-generation convertible. The MX-5 Cup is going worldwide in 2016 as the MX-5 Global Cup, and all of the racers are getting behind the wheel of the upcoming fourth-gen Miata, similar to the gorgeous redhead pictured above.
"It has long been our goal to see Mazda fans around the world competing in identical MX-5s, and the launch of the 2016 MX-5 Miata is the perfect time to make this goal a reality," said Masahiro Moro, Managing Executive Officer in charge of Global Sales, Marketing and Customer Service for Mazda in the company's announcement.
The racing version makes its grand debut at this year's SEMA show, although at the moment it's really more of a concept. Mazda confirms that the racer uses the 2.0-liter SkyActiv four-cylinder, but the other important parts like tires, suspension and safety equipment are not yet determined. The cars "will be sold ready to race from a single supplier," according to automaker's announcement for the series.
Mazda 16X rotary engine two years away, will arrive in all-new model
Fri, 16 Aug 2013We last reported on Mazda's next-generation rotary engine project in June of 2012 when the automaker built its last Renesis-powered RX-8, but rumors of this new engine's development had been around way before that final car left the production line in Japan, last year.
We now have enthusiastic confirmation that this next-gen rotary engine is really and truly going forward. It is still referred to as 16X and has several priorities. First is to lower fuel consumption compared to the RX-8's engine, while still making gains in terms of performance. The second is to reduce the burning of oil that was happening at the highest revs. And the third and final priority, and perhaps most key for enthusiasts, is to give the powertrain a big torque upgrade.
What we were told by a Mazda USA insider (while we are all here together at the festivities in Monterey) is that the first application of the new 16X engine will be happening in two years' time in an as yet undisclosed new model. Oh, the mind races to our eternal Mazda wish list...
Mazda3 Skyactiv-Hybrid and CNG Concept shown in Japan
Thu, 21 Nov 2013Mazda has received a tremendous amount of public and industry praise in the last few years, following up the successful introduction of its Skyactiv technology (powertrain and otherwise), with strong products like CX-5, Mazda6 and most recently, the Mazda3. At the Tokyo Motor Show, Mazda has taken yet another step forward with Skyactiv and the 3, showing the compact (called "Axela" in Japan) with an all-new compressed natural gas engine in the Skyactiv-CNG Concept.
The end result of the Skyactiv-Hybrid is fuel consumption estimated at something like 74 miles per gallon.
Mazda thinks that CNG-powered vehicles are due for an uptick in demand, and the company believes this new powertrain will add valuable breadth to the Mazda3 range. The CNG Concept is actually a duel-fuel vehicle, capable of running on either natural gas or gasoline. In fact, we're told that the high compression ratio (14:1) inherent in Skyactiv-technology gasoline engines makes conversion to CNG particularly simple.
