OVERVIEW: 81,800 original miles Third Owner 5 speed manual - 'Tender Blue' metallic exterior, grey cloth interior Never in an Accident 100% southern car No rust no dings or dents - runs beautifully! With low original miles and completely pure (stock), this car is an absolute must for a rotary enthusiast. Additionally, unique from other first generation RX-7s, the GSL-SE was only available for model years 1984/1985 and comes equipped with the more powerful, fuel injected, 13B 1.3L rotary engine. This engine became Mazda's staple rotary on the second generation model. This car is a true enthusiasts dream as it is the most coveted of the first generation RX7's. The car is loaded with everything, including the rare bronze factory tint. It does NOT have factory leather (thank goodness; it only came in ugly brown or burgundy) or factory power steering. An absolute joy to drive. She pulls hard, shifts smoothly and looks great. Twist up the roof, open the dash vents (the old kind that let air flow directly into the car, the faster you go, the more air it blows!) and listen to the great sounding engine and exhaust. Dont fret about the Racing Beat exhaust, it doesnt sound like a Civic with a big exhaust. Great handling as you navigate the twisty roads and enjoy that feeling of a pure vehicle, low to the ground. CARE & MAINTENANCE: The vehicle has been well maintained myself or with Mazcare in Marietta (a rotary specialized shop). Typical oil changes and maintenance have occurred. When purchased, the catalytic converter had been removed for the Racing Beat exhaust and muffler, I had the catalytic converter reinstalled to meet emissions in metro Atlanta through 2010. It was since removed, replaced with pre-silencer and the catalytic converter goes with the car. I replaced all exterior light bulbs, interior lights, headlights (Sylvania Silverstar), replaced rear hatch rubber molding, driver/passenger door rubber moldings, rear hatch struts, stock speakers with exact fit replacements. I had one door ding removed several years back, body is in excellent shape very unusual for the age. Recent maintenance (05/2013) at Mazcare included, re-installation of presilencer, new spark plugs, new distributor cap and rotor, ignition wires, ignition coil, repack of front wheel bearings, replace idler arm bushings, fan clutch and alternator belt. All of this was done to keep car in tip-top shape. Everything is in working condition with the following exceptions: power antennae does not work: Ive since turned stereo and antennae off so that it doesn't needlessly run the antenna motor; the motor would run at start/stop. The stereo works great, just not the best reception with the antennae in the body of the car. a/c compressor runs but is not cold, needs freon recharge or converted to 134a. I just did not drive the car on really hot days as the little compressor could not keep up with the Atlanta heat. rear wiper does not work (it did work after I replaced hatch shocks, but hasn't for some time now) minor tear in seam of drivers seat paint oxidation/fading on sunroof/roof (worst) and hood VEHICLE FEATURES: 1985 GSL-SE model with 81,800(+) miles! 13B, 135hp+, fuel-injected rotary engine (more hp with custom exhaust) Limited-slip differential 5-speed MANUAL transmission 4-wheel disc brakes A/C cruise control bronze factory tint aftermarket Racing Beat exhaust/muffler (no catalytic converter on the car - I still have it though) original factory rims are in great shape tires have plenty of tread original factory stereo with equalizer power windows full LeBra front cover (rare) extra stereo surround goes with the car body-matched rear view mirrors (compliments of first owner) original owners manual ABOUT THE OWNER: Garage-kept, smoke-free, pet-free, children-free vehicle, purchased in 2003, becoming the 3rd owner. 100% Southern car; purchased new in Georgia, spent time in Florida and returned to Georgia in 2003. Ive enjoyed the car for the past 11 years but ready for something new. Shipping Information: BUYER IS ABSOLUTELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS!!!

Alfa Romeo takes Spider in-house, Mazda-Fiat roadster partnership not dead
Sat, Dec 20 2014It's officially off. Following a report in March of this year that the marriage of Mazda and Alfa Romeo to produce a MX-5-based Spider was in trouble, the Italians have confirmed that it will take development in-house. "As far as the Spider goes, the final version is of course no longer the two-seater FCA co-developed with Mazda but a derivative of Project Giorgio," Maserati and Alfa Romeo brand boss Harald Wester told Car. For those not in the know, Project Giorgio is Alfa's codename for the rear-drive platform that will underpin the next-generation Spider, not to mention the replacement for the 159 sedan and a few other products. All is not lost for the Japanese-Italian partnership, though. "The Far East import will probably find a new home with Fiat-Abarth," Wester told Car. Yes, you read that correctly, Mazda is still working with FCA, and the result will eventually end up with Abarth's scorpion badge. If anything, we're more excited over this news than the idea of an Alfa MX-5. But we want to know what you think would you rather Alfa build a new Spider on the Miata's bones, or does an MX-5 Abarth sound like more fun? Have your say in Comments.
Mini Cooper Countryman only small car to earn good grade in latest IIHS crash tests [w/video]
Wed, 30 Jul 2014
Competitors in the small-car segment didn't do nearly as well. Four vehicles earned "poor" grades.
Only one small car out of 12 tested earned a good grade in the latest round of crash-test results compiled by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The Mini Cooper Countryman received a "good" ranking on the organization's small-front overlap test.
Mazda6 diesel engine delayed over low performance, still coming
Mon, Dec 1 2014Oh Mazda... we had many hopes for the promised diesel four-cylinder in the Mazda6, but those have remained largely unfulfilled, as the oil-burning powerplant has failed to appear on dealer lots following its 2012 LA Auto Show announcement. Despite engineering issues that forced the company to announce that the program was delayed back in September 2013, Mazda remains adamant that the 2.2-liter Skyactiv-D is still coming to our shores. "We're still very much committed to diesel," Mazda's North American CEO, Jim O'Sullivan, told Automotive News. "We are still working on getting the performance aspects up to where we want them, and we do have a plan an engineering road map Β to get it done." According to AN, Mazda's initial plan with the 2.2-liter diesel was to build an engine so clean it could get by without an aftertreatment system, which generally accounts for the price premium of diesel engines versus their gas counterparts. The new system has come with performance issues, though, necessitating the delays. "If [we were] a commodity brand and didn't care about that, it would be on the market right now," O'Sullivan told AN. "But I know the people were expecting something from us, expecting certain drive characteristics and performance, and I didn't want to disappoint them." While O'Sullivan's defense of the diesel Mazda is admirable, the exec stops short of giving us an indication of when the new engine will finally arrive.
