1985 Mazda Rx-7 Gsl-se 59k Miles! Rare Color! Extremely Original Survivor on 2040-cars
Campbell, California, United States
Hi everyone and thanks for looking at my 1985 RX-7 GSL-SE Chances are if you are looking at this, you already know about what makes this car special from factory so I will only touch upon that stuff briefly and let the pictures do most of the talking..
This particular car is a Royal Maroon code 3A GSL-SE made in April of 1985 This was a very limited production color and rumor has it that there were only two each given to each dealer in the USA. One had leather and the other had the Grey cloth of which this one is. The only option this car does NOT have is power steering. The GSL-SE had every other option available and being a 1985 and late production one at that, it had some other nice things. The GSL-SE had upgraded clutch and 5 speed as well as a limited slip differential and stouter rear suspension with gas charged shocks The best part is the fuel injected 135 hp 1.3L rotary motor known as the 13B. This motor kicks ass!! Air conditioning as well as upgraded stereo, lumbar adjustable and height adjustable drivers seat, 14inch wheels ( 205-60-14 ) ok so now about this particular car…. Yes, it only has 59K original miles. The interior is beautiful, and it has never been in an accident or been hit. It has never been repainted but the clear coat on the hood is starting to check quite a bit. The color is still there but the sheen is gone on the hood only The best thing about this car is how amazingly original it is. It has not been messed with but it has been taken care of. Just about everything with the exception of the fluids is original! The pictures speak for the condition but they can't tell you that the AC works perfectly, all interior lights illuminate and all warning lights function as they should. Even the light for the ignition switch lights up when the door is open. map light, over head light as well as rear cargo light work The stereo functions perfectly, even the weird directional switch in the console works. The electric windows operate at a good speed, Cruise control works, horn and all ventilation stuff works perfectly. The rear defrost works but the rear wiper does not and the power antenna makes noise but thats about it There are no cracks in the dash, the glovebox light works and all dash lights at night glow a beautiful red. The center console box/lid is excellent The headliner is mint, the carpet is excellent and the original floor mats are present. The steering wheel is perfect ALL glass is original Mazda with proper markings I replaced the rear glass hatch shocks but I still have them, I replaced the spark plug wires ( they are dated 1985!!!) and I still have those as well The engine starts easily and does not smoke. The radiator is clean and free of corrosion. Nothing has been altered in the engine bay I did replace the spark plugs and O2 sensor. The clutch is smooth and does not grab or chatter. the brakes are excellent The tires are ehhh… about 75% worn but I have driven far on them and they seem to be just fine. This car is tight as a drum, no rattles and no leaks. NO LEAKS!!! There are misc tiny nicks and scratches here and there.. its 30 years old!!!! The drivers door weatherstripping is dried out and cracked. Still seals OK though The windshield is perfect!! Not chipped or sand blasted and its original mazda as well I wish I could keep this beauty but I don't care for how I fit it in and neither does my son. You can drive this anywhere. I have TONS of pictures that I will post a link at the end for you to go to. Now, here are some extra cool things I have the original window sticker, all original books and manuals including a factory service manual It has the factory rare as hens teeth REAR SEAT!! with seat belts. It folds down too! I still have the original storage boxes with lids that will go with the car, One of the little locks is missing on one of the boxes I have the sunroof black storage bag and If you want I can get you the optional glass sunroof for $50 bucks from my local shop This car pulls hard!! Handles like a dream, tight as a drum and rides excellent. You will be pleased Feel free to call me with any questions. Peter (408) 466- 3838 LOTS AND LOTS Of additional pictures are available simply by asking me for them!

LA Design Challenge invokes biology for 2025 concepts [w/poll]
Wed, 13 Nov 2013Participants in the annual LA Design Challenge always manage to come up with edgy, wacky designs for future vehicles, but with a theme of "Biomimicry and Mobility: 2025" this year's crop of cars might be the quirkiest we've ever seen. As usual, automotive designers from around the world participated in this year's competition, and all the designs will all be unveiled next week during the LA Auto Show with a winner being announced on November 21.
Chinese automakers made a strong showing with Qoros, SAIC Motor, JAC Motors (the company responsible for the Ford F-150 clone) and Changfeng all bringing interesting takes on the biology, human intelligence and sustainability theme. One of the more innovative ideas among these automakers is the Qoros Silk Road System allows autonomous vehicles to drive in packs similar to how ants travel. Speaking of ants, the SAIC Motor Mobiliant (shown above) gets its design from the shape of an ant's body, and, like the insect, it can climb building acting as a personal elevator as well. The JAC Motors design also merges vehicle and building design, while the Changfeng LaBrea inspired by the design of muscle fibers.
Other entrants include Subaru and US-based design teams for BMW, Toyota and Mazda. BMW's duo of concepts mimic plant and animal life. The LA Subways concept acts as a submersible, single-person vehicle to take advantage of the LA river, with a shape similar to an Ocean Sunfish. The Sustainable Efficient Exploratory Device (SEED) imitates the shape of a seed pod, and uses propulsion methods inspired by a shark, dragonfly and a water bug. Mazda's Auto Adapt might be the most car-like concept of the bunch, while the Subaru Suba-Roo and the Calty-designed, Toyota e-grus are the most mind-blowingly awesome.
2015 Mazda2 spotted on the road
Tue, 15 Apr 2014When Mazda unveiled the Hazumi Concept at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, our excitement for the next Mazda2 increased considerably. The Hazumi looks to retain much of the driving character that makes the current 2 one of the very best cars in its segment while infusing it with more aggressive styling. Of course, when the 2 arrives, it won't look exactly like the Hazumi. That's why these spy photos are so important.
This is our very first look at the next-generation 2, and although the Hazumi influence might be difficult to discern, thanks to the swirly camo, it's still there. The grille shape and the headlights are very similar in shape to the items shown on the concept, while the camouflage disguises the shape of the greenhouse, which looks somewhat like the Hazumi.
What we can't see, though, is under the hood. That's where our spies come in, reporting that a pair of 1.5-liter SkyActiv engines will see action in the tossable 2. The former, which we'll almost certainly see in the US, is a gas-powered mill found in the Euro-spec Mazda3. In the larger 3, it produces 99 horsepower and 111 pound-feet of torque, which is broadly similar to what the current 2's 1.5-liter pumps out. The other engine, a 1.5-liter SkyActiv diesel, probably won't be making the trip, although we'll continue to hope.
Mazda2 successor to ride atop shortened CX-5 platform
Fri, 31 May 2013Mazda, looking to make the most of its new, lightweight Skyactiv vehicle architecture, will allegedly use a version of the CX-5 crossover's platform to underpin its next-generation Mazda2 hatchback, according to a report from Just-Auto.com. Of course, the Mazda2 is a much smaller vehicle than its larger CUV stablemate, so some serious chopping will no doubt be in order when it comes time to engineer the replacement for the company's smallest hatch.
Currently, the CX-5 and the sleek new Mazda6 share many of the same platform components, and this architecture will already be scaled down to support the next-generation Mazda3 sedan and hatchback, which will debut later this year. Just-Auto.com states that all of Mazda's remaining front-wheel-drive vehicles will eventually switch to reworked versions of this Skyactiv platform, including the replacement for the larger CX-9 crossover.
Also of note, Mazda will reportedly be switching to shorter, four-year lifecycles for its vehicles. This means that the newly launched Mazda6 will be replaced for the 2016 calendar year, with a refresh coming sometime in 2014. That said, vehicles with platforms supplied by other automakers (like the upcoming MX-5 Miata replacement that will share its underpinnings with an Alfa Romeo product) will not necessarily follow this four-year rule.
