1984 Mazda RX-7 GS When you think of 80s Performance Imports what comes to mind ? This car is at the top of the list and in case you havent noticed they are getting much harder to find, esp this nice and this original ! Up for auction a nice clean unmolested First GEN RX7 the car that changed the look for Mazda for people to take notice and say "yeah, I could drive that !!" this is a 1 owner car, was originally bought new outta Santa Cruz CA and owned by an older woman since day 1. Been well kept and maintained its whole life and what Id call a nice unmolested survivor. Soon after it left CA it came to AZ where its was garage kept most of its life. Very little sun damage and zero rust on the body or floors, RX7s like this are getting harder to find these days. The original paint still actually in nice shape over most of the car and chances are it could be buffed out and brought back to look nice with an afternoon detail job. Check out our feedback - feel comfortable buying from someone like us with GREAT large pics in our ads and GREAT FEEDBACK. Ive been driving the car around now for the last week almost daily and it has plenty of power, starts and runs great every time and is a blast to drive. Had receipts from original owner showing all the oil changes and repairs it needed since 84. Nice history tracked over its whole life. Car even comes with the original window sticker and misc pamphlets given to the owner when new. DRIVETRAIN: Original 12A Rotory runs great with plenty of power in every gear. ALL stock - un molested just the way Mazda built it. Whenever something broke or wore out it was repaired and kept on the road. Under the hood looks almost like when it was new. Mild oil leaks under the car but they are small. Shocks do feel a little worn out and soft but the brakes and rest of the car feel better then a car this old. Not sure where its suppose to idle out, but to me it idles a little lower then normal, but mostly when its cold. Plugs, cap and rotor are new. Fires up fine whether its hot or cold. Power of the little rotary motor is just like it should be and transmission feels great. Cruise control not working due to a broken vacuum nipple off the canister under the hood. Runs great, the gas in the tank may be 6m old from not being driven much lately, so I think once whats in there is run out and fresh 91 is put in it, it will only run even better. INTERIOR: Doesnt look like a car that is almost 30 yrs old thanks to being in the garage most of its life. Check out the Pics, which show how nice the car still is. Its always been taken care of and kept clean and shows little wear. The worst spot, the dr side door panel by the window which would be a really easy fix if you wanted to. Sunroof I think may even be a pop out, not sure. Everything works best I can tell inside the car. Even the original factory stereo etc works well and the dash was never cut up or trashed. Glass is all great around, may be one chip in the windshield. AC all connected and worked last summer, but now it is blowing warm not cold. SUSPENSION: All stock original down to the OE alloy rims Feels good, but Im sure it will need some bushings if you looked hard. But no weird noises , but Im sure the shocks are old, the ride is a little mushy. Tires decent, and should get you by for another yr. The great thing about taking apart a rust free car like this when it comes time to work on it, you have less hassles with broken bolts etc making the future repairs and maintenance that much easier. Brake feel great too. BODY: Really nice shape for its age. A few small dents and dings. The 2 worst spots : LF Fender and RR wheel well (see pics) Trunk struts work well, this is a great Driver as is or would be an easy car to restore back to original. Honestly, if you buffed the paint out and just drove it you could keep the car still 100% original and in most cases thats way better then just tossing new paint on a car to be pretty.

World Car Awards finalists snub American-branded vehicles — except for Bronco
Fri, Feb 2 2024The list of World Car Awards has been whittled down to 10 finalists, but only one American brand — Ford — appears among the remaining nine carmakers for this yearÂ’s top award. The Bronco is there, and it also is balloted as a finalist in the design category. The other categories are performance car, urban car, electric vehicle and luxury model. Each category has five finalists except World Car, which has 10. One brand conspicuous by its absence in any category: Tesla. The winner in each is scheduled to be crowned March 27 at the New York International Auto Show in Manhattan. This year marks the 20th year of the World Car Awards and the partnership with the New York show. The selection process involves 100-plus automotive journalists from 29 countries who vote, as they review and test-drive the eligible vehicles for the 2024 awards. Their journey is captured virtually on World Car TV. If youÂ’re counting, the brands that appear most on the six finals lists are Mercedes-Benz (four times), BMW (also four), Hyundai (three), and Volvo (three). HereÂ’s the full listing. A video clip showing all of them is here: World Car -BYD Seal / Atto 4 -Ford Bronco -Hyundai Kona / Kona Electric -Hyundai Santa Fe -Kia EV9 -Mazda CX-90 -Subaru Crosstrek -Toyota Prius -Volkswagen ID.7 -Volvo EX30 World Car Design of the Year Ford Bronco Ferrari Purosangue Toyota Prius Volvo EX30 Zeekr X 2024 World Electric Vehicle BMW i5 Kia EV9 Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV Volkswagen ID.7 Volvo EX30 2024 World Luxury Car - BMW 5 Series / i5 - Lexus LM - Mercedes-Benz CLE - Mercedes-Benz E-Class - Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV 2024 World Urban Car - Abarth 500e - BYD Dolphin - Lexus LBX - Suzuki Fronx - Volvo EX30 2024 World Performance Car - BMW M2 - BMW XM - Ferrari Purosangue - Hyundai Ioniq 5 N - Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid
The 2018 Mazda6 also snags top IIHS safety rating
Wed, Jul 25 2018The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety is one of two organizations that issues important safety ratings. To get to IIHS's Top Safety Pick rating level, the 2018 Mazda6 not only had to ace a bunch of difficult crash tests, it also must have headlights that meet a strict test as well. Its stablemate, the CX-5 crossover just received the even higher Top Safety Pick+ rating. Both must be equipped with optional adaptive headlights to achieve these ratings. The rationale is, many crashes happen at dusk or in the dark, and an outsized number on unlit roads. While almost all modern headlights outperform the dim, unfocused sealed beams of the past, IIHS says that government regulations aren't doing a good enough job of ensuring real-world performance. Adaptive headlights turn with the front wheels, helping out a lot in IIHS's tests on illumination in sharp and gradual curves. Related: How the 2018 Mazda6 stacks up to its competitors in the midsize sedan segment The Adaptive Front-Lighting System is only available in the Grand Touring Reserve and Signature trim levels, meaning that you'll have to upgrade to those fancy versions to get it. It'd be nice if Mazda allowed even lower-trim buyers to add this as a stand-alone option, but for now that's not how it works. Fancy, safer headlights or no, we love the new Mazda6, especially the turbocharged version. It's one of the most fun sedans around. And, according to IIHS, now one of the safest.

NFL player Alfred Morris receives his thoroughly restored 1991 Mazda 626
Tue, 15 Oct 2013Washington Redskins starting running back Alfred Morris might not drive a flashy sports car or SUV, but after today, he'll be driving the nicest 1991 Mazda 626 on the planet.
Back in July, Morris temporarily traded in his 626 - cheekily named Bentley - for a 2014 Mazda6 loaner courtesy of Mazda, and today the sedan was presented back to him after the ultimate PR stunt: a reported 275-man-hour restoration that left this 22-year-old daily driver looking like it just rolled off the assembly line.
Not everything was brought back to original condition, though. The expired sticker from Morris' final year at Florida Atlantic University was left on the windshield, but to fit the car's nickname, a few high-end touches were added to the interior. This includes the quilted, cross-stitched leather seats (just like a real Bentley) and the touchscreen Pioneer audio system. There's also a plaque under the hood marking this car as the "Alfred Morris Project."
