Overview

The Mazda RX7 was only sold in the US from 1993-1995.  The production number was only 13,879 in total, with only 3403 in 1994.  Of those 3403 in 1994 only 118 of them came in the Silver Stone Metallic with the Touring Package and a manual transmission.  And of those 118 only 16 came with the red interior.  1994 was the last year for the Touring Package option, also the last year the red leather was offered as an option, and the first year the Silver Stone Metallic was available.  They softened the suspension in 1994 for the Base and Touring models.  Added in 1994 also was a passenger side airbag, map pockets, and one touch driver’s side window switch.  To say the car here for sale is rare would be an understatement.  Not only would you be hard pressed to find another with the same options and color scheme, you won’t find one in this condition and with this low of miles.  This car has been very well cared for its entire life.  It has been in single ownership since new.  It was garage kept, driven sparingly every year, and never in anything other than sunshine.  Maintenance was regularly performed by Mazda technicians and all the recalls were performed by Mazda as well.    

 

Exterior

This car wears its entirely original paint.  There is not one scratch.  There is a small chip under the rear spoiler.(see photos)  It shines like the day it was sold.  No fading or discolorations, not one sign of any rust.  The front chin spoiler has not been scraped on any low driveways.  Every wheel is in like new condition and wrapped in like new P225/50R16 Goodyear Eagle tires.  There is a dealer installed wind deflector on the glass moonroof, with the white Mazda stamp still visible.  All gaps are good, doors shut properly, and hood/trunk fit is good as well.  It has the optional rear window wiper and washer.  There is also a period cell phone antenna on the rear window. 

 

Interior

The interior in this RX7 is absolutely stunning.  As it should be with only a mere 12,000 miles on the car.  It has never been repaired or replaced, it is all the original leather and trim.  The red leather seats are in amazing condition.  They were very well cared for.  There is not one sign of discoloration or cracks.  The leather is very soft and clean.  There are not any stains or spots in the carpet or the optional floor mats.  The 2 rear compartments are clean and have no scratches in the plastic trim.  The storage compartment on the driver’s door still has its little door.  It has the optional rear cargo cover.  The center console is like new.  The ashtray is clean, the owner was not a smoker.  The pedals are drilled aluminum.  All the electronics work perfectly.  Windows, moonroof, mirrors, and locks all work flawlessly.  All the interior lights, gauges, and wipers are in great working order.  This car has the optional Bose Acoustic Wave Sound System and it works perfectly.  None of the switches or knobs show any wear or discoloration.  The AC blows cold.  The interior of this car is in simply amazing condition.  It does have a period cell phone docking station on the passenger side of the transmission tunnel. 


Mechanicals

The twin turbo 2 cylinder Rotary liter engine runs as strong as the day it was built.  It pulls like a super car.  0-60 MPH time in the mid-5 second range with 255 BHP and 160 MPH top speed.  It has excellent oil pressure.  The cooling system works perfectly.  Electric fans are in proper working condition, coolant is clean, and there is zero smoke or smells.  It has only had premium fuel in its tank.  It only has 12,000 original miles on it.  All the routine services done to the motor were performed by Mazda, according to the original owner.  The turbos are in excellent working condition.  The car has zero leaks.  All the recalls were performed.  All the hoses look to be in great condition.  The clutch feels amazing.  It shifts very smoothly, including into 5th gear.  No rattles, clunks, or shakes.  The 4 wheel disc brakes are firm.  The car rides very smoothly on its original suspension components.


Literature and Extras

The car still has all its original books, pamphlets, and holders.  The original window sticker and original spare key.  It comes with extra oil filters and air filters from Mazda and the original Bose Sound System test CD.  Also, the moonroof interior cover.    


Conclusion

You are not going to find a nicer original example of the Mazda RX7.  It has had no modifications, like most of the others on the market.  This car is ready to be driven if you so choose too.  Simply a joy to drive!

Fourth-gen Mazda MX-5 Miata could get turbo power later in life

Thu, Aug 6 2015

While there's a lot to love about the new Mazda MX-5 Miata, its debut was met by a vocal group of enthusiasts who derided the fourth-generation roadster's reduction in power output. The new model only puts out 155 horsepower, down from 167 in the NC. A report from Australia, though, claims Mazda may yet address the less potent output of the ND. Things started earlier this year, as Motoring.com.au tells it, when Mazda's global PR boss, Kudo Hidetoshi, hinted that a turbocharged or Mazdaspeed model "will definitely" be considered. Then last month at Goodwood, the ND's program manager, Nobuhiro Yamamoto, said complainers were welcome to get their thrills elsewhere. Recognizing this contradiction among Mazda's brass, Motoring asked Yamamoto-san again about his statements, which he seemed to walk back. "It's not a conflict [between statements made by Yamamoto and Hidetoshi]," Yamamoto said, indicating that his statements were made in relation to the new MX-5's launch. "Kudo-san talked about this in terms of a 10-year lifespan, but when I was asked the question right after the launching of the ND, I said 'we have no plan to have a turbo at that point in time.' That is what I meant." Seeking an opening, Motoring pushed the Japanese engineer on the chances of a more potent MX-5, perhaps without a turbocharger. "If you could achieve what we want, to which is great response, very light and powerful with great performance feel with natural aspiration, then we don't need a turbo," Yamamoto said. "But if we want more power because we don't get satisfied with natural aspiration then we may think about the turbo." Related Video:

Mazda leads Consumer Reports' latest Brand Report Card Rankings

Thu, Feb 18 2021

The latest automaker brand report cards from Consumer Reports are in, and there are quite a few changes for 2021. At the very top of the charts sits Mazda, up three spots over last year, followed by BMW and Subaru to round out the top three. It's interesting to note that mainstream brands (non-luxury in CR-speak) don't seem to be at a disadvantage in CR's rankings, with five of the top 10 spots. In addition to Mazda in first and Subaru in third, Honda, Toyota, Chrysler, and Buick were the other high-ranking non-luxury marques. The ratings are derived from "a combination of predicted reliability, and owner satisfaction based on member surveys, and CR’s hands-on analysis" and also includes safety features and crash test scores.  At the very bottom of the list sit Mitsubishi, Land Rover and Alfa Romeo. "Our brand rankings don't just look at how models perform on our test track, but the broad picture of vehicle quality," said Jake Fisher, Senior Director of Automotive Testing at Consumer Reports. "Fortunately, consumers will find they have many options that are safe, enjoyable, and reasonably priced." The biggest jumps in the brand report card rankings come from Chrysler, Buick and Honda, which each moved up five spots compared to last year's rankings. The news wasn't nearly as good for Lincoln, which fell an alarming 15 spots this year, Genesis, which fell 13 spots, or Kia, which fell 10 spots. Related Video:

Are you the 2016 Mazda Miata?

Mon, 11 Aug 2014

Tech 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.
