This is a NO RESERVE listing.
This is my 1988 Mazda RX-7 GXL 5-speed coupe with 60,342 original miles. This has got to be one of the cleanest, most-original, best-condition 2nd-generation RX-7 models for sale in the country. Not many of these cars exist with such low miles, original paint and in superb mechanical condition- this car is outstandingly nice. This car has the following equipment and options:
I have the original books, manuals and dealer brochures with the car as well as two keys. This car is in exceptional condition for its age. This car hasn't been modified, hacked up or molested in any way. This is a completely stock, original-condition car that runs and drives perfectly. I would trust this car to drive across the country if someone wanted to. The paint and body of this car are in quite good condition for a 1988 vehicle. The paint is original, and the car hasn't been in any known accidents. The paint looks superb for it's age, with excellent gloss and very few stone nicks and no major problems. The body is clean and very nice. The aluminum wheels are in very good condition, the glass is all good and the tires are nearly brand new. The interior of this RX-7 is very well-preserved and in great condition. The seats, upholstery and carpets are original and they are clean and aren't ripped up or worn out. The seat fabric is very nice and the carpets and even the factory "RX-7" floormats look nice. All of the switchgear, buttons and interior hardware are clean and aren't worn out and nothing is missing or broken. All the interior buttons and switches are working, as well as all of the gauges. The warning lights on the dashboard and gauge cluster are all working properly when the key is turned forward, and they all properly go out when the car is started. This RX-7 runs and drives beautifully. This is a tight, stable, nimble and fun-to-drive car that drives exactly how you would expect a 60,000 mile car to drive. The rotary engine starts perfectly and it doesn't smoke or leak, and it makes plenty of power. The engine doesn't burn oil nor coolant nor does it smoke even under full throttle. The engine revs to 2800 rpm when starting just as it should, and then settles down into a smooth idle. The transmission shifts well and the clutch is strong. The steering is tight, and the handling is excellent. The brakes are smooth and powerful and they stop the car very well. This is a super-driving, rewarding, fun car that runs and drives just as it should. I know of no mechanical or electrical problems, and everything is working- the air conditioning, the factory radio and EQ, the power locks and windows, the front and rear windshield wipers, the trunk hatch release, the sunroof, the headlight motors, etc, etc. This is a 1988 car and as such it is not a brand-new car. Here is a complete list of everything I know of wrong with the car, no matter how minor: you have to help the sunroof up when opening it- just push up gently while holding the button- after that the motors power it back just fine and it closes just fine. There are many dings on the sides of the car, mostly above the beltline and more on the passenger side- this is what I'd call "garage wear". These dings could of course be fixed but then the car wouldn't have original paint- that's why I've elected to leave them alone- the new owner may feel differently. There is a small split in the vinyl side panel of the outside of the driver's seat- you can see this clearly in the photo. There is some paint checking on the driver's side. There is a tiny bit of surface rust due to some stone nicks on the inside lip of the right rear wheel well that has been brush-touched (otherwise the car is rust-free). You can't rush the 1-2 shift under very high rpms, you need to shift relatively slowly- under normal lower-rpm driving there is no issue at all. There is a defroster vent at the left corner of the dash that is missing its louvers. One "Mazda" center cap is missing from the aluminum wheels. That's it. This is a super clean, beautiful condition RX-7 for the age. This car is kept in my climate-controlled garage in Willoughby, OH. You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home if you wish. Alternatively, you can have the car shipped. Please call Angels Moving Autos at 530-245-0481 for a shipping quote. Questions, please email me or call/text me at 440-339-4341. |

So, just how different are the Fiat 124 Spider and Mazda MX-5 Miata?
Wed, Nov 18 2015"We leveraged a great platform." That's how Bob Broderdorf, Jr., Fiat's North American director, summarizes the creation of the 124 Spider. We all know Fiat's new roadster shares its underpinnings with the fourth-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata, but there are a lot of key differences to keep them separate in the eyes of consumers. Mazda may have engineered the platform, but Fiat added many of its own touches. Here, we'll take a closer look at the spec sheets of the two cars, and summarize the major differences between the Japanese and Italian roadsters. If you need a refresher, read our full First Drive of the 2016 MX-5 Miata, and glance at all the Fiat 124 Spider details in this post. Design Fiat Chrysler design lead Ralph Gilles is super excited about this car. "I think it's going to change lives," he told the assembled media at an event in Auburn Hills, MI, earlier this month. Yes, it's definitely exciting to add a small roadster to any lineup, especially one that uses such a proven platform. But we're not sure people are going to get all that jazzed about it from a design standpoint. You'll either love it or hate it, and we're kind of leaning toward the latter. Every single body panel is new, and the design is "100 percent Italian." There are a number of creases and angles throughout the exterior, with a squared-off rear end and rectangular taillamps. Fiat trusts you'll be able to spot the similarities between the new 124 Spider and the original, but we're not so sure. We can see a bit of the old car's grille on the new car's face, and the dual hood blisters are a nice throwback touch, but that's about it. Trust us when we say that this car looks way better in photos. In person, it really didn't wow us. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. One colleague told us his wife, a long-time Miata owner, hates the look of the new one but will absolutely adore the Fiat. Good for her, and good for Fiat. But based on design alone, we'll take the Mazda every single time. What about you? Dimensions When Broderdorf said Fiat leveraged the Miata's platform, that means the Italians took it as-is. The two cars ride on an identical, 90.9-inch wheelbase. The front and rear tracks lengths are the same, at 58.9 and 59.1 inches, respectively. But that's where the similarities end.
Toyota, Honda, Nissan and more collaborating to increase fuel efficiency
Sun, 25 May 2014Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Daihatsu have announced an alliance that will see a push to improve fuel economy from both gas-powered and diesel-powered engines by as much as 30 percent before the end of the decade.
The newly assembled Research Association of Automotive Internal Combustion Engines put the roughly $20-million project together, with the Japanese government committing to half the cost while the eight manufacturers will chip in the rest.
According to Automotive News, the automakers will team up and share basic research on internal-combustion engines in a bid to cut costs. Eventually, the results of the research will find its way into a production vehicle, although it's unclear just when we'll see the fruits of this partnership on the road.
Mazda Hazumi Concept previews next Mazda2 in Geneva [w/videos]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014The official photos of Mazda's Hazumi concept leaked out yesterday, but we have finally gotten to see it in real life at the Geneva Motor Show. Our view is that its Kodo lines looks as good on the diminutive car's sheet metal as they did in photos.
The Hazumi was designed to appear to be bursting with energy, and it seems to deliver. While Mazda refuses to actually say that this is the concept for the next Mazda2, it makes it clear that the little hatchback is "foreshadowing Mazda's next-generation subcompact car." We can all read between the lines.
Hazumi also introduces the new Skyactiv-D 1.5-liter diesel engine but details about it are scant at the moment. The specs for the engine are still unannounced, but the company promises that it is both very efficient and has lots of torque for its size. Mazda is also promising that its Mazda Connect infotainment system will be available in the car too. Scroll down for the brief press release a brace of videos that celebrate the tiny concept's arrival.
