1984 Mazda "5.0L V8" RX-7 GSL. I recently took this vehicle in on a trade. I have fell in love with this little car, but I need to sell it. The man that I got it from owned it for almost 19 years. It was his first car. He went through a couple original rotary engines that seems like always have problems...and decided to make this classic RX-7 the "ULTIMATE" little sports car...he did ALOT of research and properly did the V8 conversion a few years ago.
I do not recommend this car for a younger driver...It is great for cruising around, but it is VERY POWERFUL.
It has been ran at the dragstrip a few times just to see what it would do...It ran mid 12 second 1/4 mile times on the motor alone. It ran a 11.83 at 120mph on its shot of nitrous and the drag radials.
I will describe in detail everything that I know about this car below. I have provided 150+ detailed pictures along with video clips. I have the clean and clear title in hand and ready for a new owner. I believe the reserve price is LOW, so put your bid in and bid to buy!! Or of course make a SERIOUS offer. Hopefully with the hours I have invested in taking pictures and making this auction I have answered all questions, but if not, feel free to call: 513-464-TEN 20. Please read everything and view all of the pics/videos prior to calling.
BODY & WHEELS
Original body is very straight and solid. Both doors and hatch glass open and close like new. The pop up roof works perfect. All of the glass is crack free. The hood could use a little bit of scuffing/bodywork prior to paint, however I think it looks cool black. The undercarriage is VERY SOLID, but does have original scabby undercoating and some surface rust forming(See pics). Cosmetically, it is an absolutely beautiful and stunning 1984 Mazda RX-7. Here is some more details:
- Painted Ford Competition Yellow
- Fiberglass Hood w/ Hood Pins
- Fiberglass front air dam
- PIAA headlights that look very cool after dark and work great too
- Foglights in air dam that also work good
- RS Aluminum Alloy 16x7 4x100mm wheels
- Front Tires -- Kuhmo Ecsta Supra 205/45/16
- Rear Tires -- Kuhmo Ecsta Supra 225/50/16

- Front aluminum wheel Adapters for 4x100mm bolt pattern
- Extra set of rear Mickey Thompson Drag Radials on 15x7 aluminum rims(Not pictured, but will have pics of them tomorrow)
ENGINE & DRIVETRANE
This is where this classic RX-7 gets interesting:

The engine sounds very healthy with a deep V8 lope at idle. The transmission shifts into every single gear perfect and the clutch feels tight. The brakes stop this car hard and straight. All of the V8 sound exits the rear. The suspension is surprisingly very comfortable and is a smooth ride when hitting bumps. This car runs and drives just as nice as it looks!!! It starts right up everytime and is reliable! It cruises down the road amazingly and is an absolute blast to drive!! There is no noticable leaks, and this car does not mark its spot when parked. All of the fluids look good and clean too. Its alot of fun to cruise around and has ALOT of power. It sounds amazing....This V8 RX-7 runs, shifts, drives, and stops great. I would personally trust driving it anywhere.
INTERIOR
The interior appears to be original and in exceptional condition for being 30 years old. Everything looks nice with exception of the carpet. The original carpet could use a good shampoo cleaning. The only original gauges that appear to work is the fuel and temp gauge. It even appears to have its original spare wheel/tire still intact too... I have provided A LOT of detailed pictures below. Keep scrolling through all of the pictures and please view them all. I know there is an overwhelming amount of them, but I want to showcase how cool this class 84' "V8" RX-7 is....

Mazda has toiled admirably to keep the latest MX-5 Miata true to the spirit of the original. But just how close did the team come? To find out, the Japanese automaker brought two bookending examples of its iconic roadster down to a racetrack in Spain and put them in the hands of a couple of endurance racing drivers – Jade Paveley in the original, Owen Mildenhall in the new model. Whichever crossed the finish line first at the end of one lap would win. And because 25 years of progress wouldn't exactly make it a fair match, they gave the original a four-second head start. Watch the video above to see how it went down. Related Video:
Looking to buy one of the limited-edition 25th Anniversary Mazda MX-5 Miata roadsters? Well, you're too late. According to Mazda, all 100 examples of the darling two-seater have sold out - and it only took 10 minutes. On Tuesday, Mazda opened its pre-order site for the limited-run Miata, and had intended to keep the site running until May 31, or until 250 customers were registered, whichever came first. Just 10 minutes later, 250 people had signed up. Now, Mazda will contact those folks, and the first 100 that are verified will be given the opportunity to pre-order the unique MX-5. "Upon verification of purchase intent and transmission selection, the customer's information will then be forwarded to the dealership of their choosing to finalize the transaction," Mazda said in a press release. The 2015 MX-5 Miata 25th Anniversary Edition models will arrive at dealers this summer, retailing for $32,205 with the six-speed manual, or $32,655 for those desiring the automatic transmission. Based on the PRHT (Power Retractable Hard Top) model, the limited-edition Miata adds Bilstein shocks, a Soul Red metallic paint job (the same found on the gorgeous Mazda6) with a contrasting black roof, gunmetal wheels and an off-white leather interior. Special badging will be found inside the car, and buyers will also be treated to a custom-crafted Tourneau watch and a display winder box.
We reported last month on some leaked documents that announced the 2019 Mazda CX-5 would get the turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder as an option, and it's looking even more official now that additional documents have appeared on Reddit. The new information comes from a "Product Information Bulletin" that not only confirms the engine's availability but reveals pricing, trims and feature sets for the new model year. As it turns out, the turbo CX-5 won't be cheap. The base price for a CX-5 with that engine will be $35,865 with destination. That's about $5,500 more than the cheapest turbocharged Mazda6. There are a couple of reasons for this. The turbo engine will only be available on two new high-end trims for the CX-5, Grand Touring Reserve and Signature. Both of those trims bring a variety of high-end features and options with them. It can also only be paired with all-wheel drive. The Mazda6 turbo engine is available on the slightly lower Grand Touring trim and is only paired to a front-drive drivetrain. Conspicuously absent from the 2019 documentation though is the elusive Skyactiv-D diesel engine. This is strange, since the engine has been rated by the EPA, so it's presumably ready for introduction to the U.S. market. We'll be curious to learn that engine's fate. We could see the turbo gas engine threatening the diesel's U.S. introduction, since it delivers the same amount of torque as the diesel with more horsepower. Plus the diesel didn't get amazing EPA numbers. But that's just speculation on our part, and it's entirely possible the diesel will still come here. The rest of the CX-5 lineup sees some welcome upgrades, too. The infotainment on CX-5s starting with the second-lowest Touring model will get standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. All models also will receive G-Vectoring Plus. The feature, along with the turbo engine option, was announced for the Japanese CX-5 recently. What this system adds is a little bit of braking force to the outside wheel as the driver winds the wheel back to a straight position when exiting a corner or completing a lane-change. The idea is that it helps make the car more stable when straightening out after a turn. Also, although the turbo CX-5 models will be rather pricey, the other CX-5 models won't change much in price. The base Sport trim starts at $200 more than the 2018, the Touring model increases just $100, and the Grand Touring goes up by $400.
