Here is my 1979 Mazda RX-7. This is a collectors car since it was the first year it was made. The value will only go up over the years. It has the 12A Rotary Engine and 5 speed transmission. It was built buy an old racer guy a few years ago to race in a local rally car event but he never raced it. It has a roll cage in it and it sounds really mean.
Here are all the modifications that have been done to it. If you don't know what they are please google them and they'll come right up.
-Upgraded to the 1985 5 speed transmission
-Nikki Carburetor stripped (all the solenoids and diaphragms removed)
-Upgraded Intake manifold ported and polished
-Upgraded to the 1985 distributor with CDI electronic ignition (eliminated the points setup)
-2.5" Custom Exhaust from motor to tail pipe. It's pretty loud and raspy
-6 point roll cage
-OMP Eliminated (which means you have to PREMIX GAS but it's safer and better and not a lot 100:1)
-Rat's Nest Removed
-Fuel Regulator
-Rally Lights
-Hood Pins
-Fire Extinguisher
Other things that have been done recently:
-Fresh Oil
-Fresh Coolant
-New Spark Plugs
-New Cap and Rotor
-New Spark Plug Wires
-New Battery
-New Alternator
-New Fuel Filter
It has more power than stock and sounds really mean because of the modifications. The only draw back to the mods is that it's a little hard to start when it's cold out but after its running for a minute it purrs and runs perfect. It shifts through all 5 gears and reverse great, the clutch feels great with lots of grab. Everything works including the pop up headlights, hatch release, rear defrost, windows, signals, horn, lights, It has a pop-up moon roof that is removable too. This is a quick,light, nimble fun little car to drive.
The interior is in very good shape. There's one rip in the driver seat and that's it. The body is in good shape too. It has a couple small bumps and bruises but nothing major. All the glass is in good shape. It's very nice and clean for it's age. I don't see any rust anywhere. If you want me to take pictures of a particular area please email me.
It has 53K miles on the speedo and I'm told those are original miles.

Fri, 02 May 2014Mazda made a big celebration of the MX-5 Miata at the 2014 New York Auto Show with a bunch of classic models on display. It capped off the model's 25th birthday with the announcement of the 2015 MX-5 Miata 25th Anniversary Edition and showed off the much-anticipated, next-generation version's chassis.

From Maseratis to rental cars | Autoblog Podcast #511
Fri, Apr 7 2017On this week's podcast, Mike Austin and David Gluckman are in a huddle room (again), because the studio was already taken (again). We talk about the all-wheel-drive Dodge Challenger GT (again), as well as the Jeep Wrangler, Maserati Levante, Miata RF (again), and then David waxes poetic on mediocre rental cars (or similar). The episode wraps up with the traditional doling out of Spend My Money buying advice, with some input from an S2000 owner on advice discussed last time. The rundown is below. Remember, if you have a car-related question you'd like us to answer or you want buying advice of your very own, send a message or a voice memo to podcast at autoblog dot com. (If you record audio of a question with your phone and get it to us, you could hear your very own voice on the podcast. Neat, right?)

Are you the 2016 Mazda Miata?
Mon, 11 Aug 2014Tech nerds are spoiled. Every year, there's a new iPhone that arrives following months and months of breathless speculation and rumormongering. We car folk have a more difficult life, because vehicles with the iPhone's cult-like devotion and following, while plentiful, only receive hefty updates after several years. Case in point, the Mazda MX-5.
There's a new one coming, and much like the iPhone 6, it'll arrive in just a few weeks. So, in lockstep with the tech folk, we're anxiously biding our time and waiting with baited breath for the expected debut date of September 3. Also, like Apple fanboys, we're clamoring over any hint or teaser as to what the next-gen Miata will bring, which is why we're showing you the above image.
That is, allegedly, the new MX-5 hiding under the sheet. Auto Motor und Sport has the image, which according to World Car Fans was released by Mazda. Of course, we've reached out to the Zoom-Zoom brand for verification of its authenticity, and will be sure to update as soon as we hear back.
