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.

Mazda MX-5 Miata to spawn coupe, Mazda6 to get quick successive updates
Thu, 28 Aug 2014
Despite the PRHT's availability, some are still yearning for a proper fixed-head coupe.
We are just days away from the official unveiling of the next-generation 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata on September 3, and it's fair to say that the mouths of enthusiasts are watering in anticipation for the latest version of this iconic roadster. Hard facts about the new droptop aren't easy to find, and in the absence of further disclosure from Mazda officials, the rumormill is in full swing, including word that a long-awaited hardtop coupe model will figure into the new generation's plans.
2014 Mazda3 officially rated at 30/41 mpg, priced from $16,945*
Wed, 24 Jul 2013It's hard not to be smitten with the 2014 Mazda3; after all, just look at it. But beyond its slick lines, we found the new compact hatch to be a pretty remarkable steer, offering up good levels of comfort and refinement, not to mention functionality and engagement. Now, there's more reason to like the 2014 Mazda3, as we've just learned that the car will officially be rated at 30 miles per gallon city and 41 mpg highway.
That 30/41 rating is for the Mazda3 sedan fitted with the 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G inline four-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission. Opting for the manual transmission retains the 41-mpg highway number, but drops the city digits to 29. Hatchback models with the 2.0-liter engine achieve 29/40 mpg with the manual 'box and 30/40 with the automatic.
Mazda also offers a larger 2.5-liter inline-four in the 3, and while a six-speed automatic will be the only transmission available with this engine at launch, the automaker has confirmed that a manual is coming shortly. With the 6AT and 2.5, the Mazda3 sedan is rated at 28/39 mpg, or 29/40 with the company's i-Eloop regenerative braking system. Hatchback models shrink those numbers to 28/37 and 29/39 mpg, with and without i-Eloop, respectively.
Mazda2 with extended-range hybrid rotary tech shown
Mon, 23 Dec 2013Every story dealing with a new rotary engine from Mazda lands in a different place on the matrix of possibilities between "Coming soon!" and "Never gonna happen!" In 2011 it was speculated that the rotary engineering program would be shut down with the demise of the RX-8, in 2012 the program was still alive and taking lessons from the SkyActiv engines, in August 2013 a Mazda insider said a rotary engine called 16X would be here in two years, in November the CEO said the only way we'd ever get a new rotary is if Mazda could sell 100,000 of them per year. Meaning that, for the moment, you can forget about it.
And yet, last month Mazda was putting journalists in a Mazda2 RE Range Extender, an electric car using a 0.33-liter rotary to power its lithium-ion batteries when the charge runs down. With a 75-kilowatt, 100-horsepower electric motor turning the front wheels, the Wankel generator and its 2.6-gallon gas tank living under the trunk double the range of the electric-only Mazda2 to 250 miles.
There's been talk of using a rotary to assist an alt-fuel vehicle for at least seven years, with Mazda pairing an electric motor with a rotary that ran on gas and hydrogen in a Mazda5 in 2007. Since then, almost all of those stories debating its return or demise also spoke of the oddball motor's advantages, such as compact size and ability to run on various fuels, as an aid in an unconventional powertrain.
