PLEASE READ FULL DESCRIPTION BEFORE BIDDING AND PLEASE SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY, BID IF YOUR HONESTLY GOING TO BUY, THANKS.

Up for sell is my long time owned Mazda RX-7. I have 6 going for my 7 year of owning this car. This is my first car and my dream car and i wished to kept it for as long a i could but the time has come in my life where more important things need to be done. Im selling this car to buy a house so i hope i can find a buyer who will understand this car and take care of it and love it as much as i have and hope this sacrifice is worth it and could help each other out, with that ill tell you everything about this car that i know and that it has. Im not going to mention prices of whats cost me of doing those things or how much ive invested in the car becuase i just know we all do it for the love of your car and never expect to get it back if you ever sold it. Remember this is a 20 year old car and it is strictly being sold AS IS but im hoping chances are that if your interested in this car you most likely know something about this car and how much it takes to own one so here goes...

Ive tried to keep the car as original as possible, it starts up everytime without problems. The motor is all stock, never went over 3000 miles changed the oil everytime, never has overheated or left me stranded. Ived kept this car mostly on my house with a car cover most of the time and riding it from time to time never not really a daily driver mostly for ocassions only. The body of the car is absolutely straight, no dents or dings or been in a accident. The interior of the car is complete! theres nothing missing or needs to be replaced. It comes with the Original bose system for the RX7 but it needs to be installed (never installed it) and you have to change the cargo lid if you do but its your choice.

Since i bought the car these are the things i have done to it and most recent  what the car has on it:

  • Lamborghini Red Paint ( About a year and a half old)
  • 99 Khouki spoiler
  • Side skirts (forgot brand)
  • Back skirts mud flaps
  • Yellow OEM RX7 Fog Lights
  • Original RX7 chrome rims
  • Door step skirts (Hard to find)
  • Suede Seats
  • Custom Cluster Gauge
  • 4 Inch HKS High Performance Exhaust (Beautiful Deep Noise)
  • Car Alarm

Ok so now its time for the bad things or stuff that needs to be fixed or just to know if you wish to fix or change it:

The car as of right now has NO BOOST. The wastegate of the car needs to be fixed. Its open and i believe is stuck open since you can hear it (my mechanic told me this) since the wastegate is open the air just keeps going out so no boost is builded.I been riding the car for 2 years like that with no problems, no joke, so i dont have any idea of the condition of the turbos but i dont think they shouldnt have anything wrong since they were working fine before that happened but i wish to mention that so in case that dosent fix the boost you might have to give it a diagnose check and see if the turbos are ok.

Theres oil on the bottom of the car thats dirty but the car DOES NOT drop or leek oil its been building up for years that the little bit of oil probably escapes from the seal from time to time. RX7's are known for their oil and how much it uses and burns it. I check it once a week and it hardly reduces oil when i use the car and never goes down when i just have it sitting but you do have to check it once a week becuase its random of how much oil it burns and you never know when you need to add a little bit. Honestly another thing im ganna mention is that i havent check the oil seals in a while so you should probably want to if you feel you need to.

The car runs rich on gas and maybe becuase of the problem with the wastegate perhaps, the car backfires, mostly when you just turn it on and its cold but sometimes from time to time when running.

The suspension is old! i got this car with the same suspensions it has on right now and havent been able to changed it (It hasnt been a problem for me but maybe i got used to it?) its really stiff and not much shock strenght left on it, the car is low (but not too low) so carefull with those bumps!

Ofcourse because of the HKS exhaust the car will NOT pass the smog check, so you know what that means. Please dont tell me i didnt mention this.

The drivers side miror wires needs to be connected again so you can move the miror with the control again.I had to change and buy a new one becuase the old one was broken from the base.

When you make a turn (mostly left turns) the cd players goes off then comes back on, i guess over time the wire or something got loose so needs to be checked. (been too lazy to do that)

Missing the spare tire.

Thats everything i can think of. Thats all the good and bad things it has but honestly it cost money, commitment and time to take care of this car and keep it looking and performing the way it should honestly. Once again this car is 20 years old.

I HOLD THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION IF I SELL THE CAR LOCALLY. CHANCES OF THAT IS LOW BUT I STILL WISH TO KEEP IT, MY APOLOGIES.  

Wining buyer is fully responsible for pick up or shipping of this vehicle, i will help all i can from my part if you need something i can do but i will not be the one shipping the car to you or anything.

FOR PAYMENT I ONLY ACCEPT PAYPAL, BANK TRANSFER OR CASH ONLY!

thank you very much for your interest and for reading all this. I highly appreciate it. Well ill cross my fingers and good luck to everyone.

United States drivers buying fewer Mexican-made cars

Tue, May 10 2016

Crossovers and pickup trucks are not only growing in market share, they're also more profitable than cars. A crossover on the same platform as a sedan retails for thousands more, despite similar components. It's one of the reasons we've seen automakers rapidly shifting production of their sedans and hatchbacks to Mexico, where cheap labor preserves the thin profit margins on these inexpensive vehicles. But as the market continues to shift in the United States, Mexico is getting burned by its lack of product diversity. The country's auto exports, which are heavy on cars, suffered a 16-percent drop last month, Automotive News reports. In total, year-over-year exports fell from 233,515 to 197,020 last month, while year-to-date exports are down by 7.4 percent, from 922,029 to 854,118. The number one culprit? America – which usually accounts for 75 percent of Mexico's exports – and its appetite for crossovers and pickup trucks bolstered by cheap gas prices. While Mexico does build some light truck models – AN specifically calls out the Ram 2500, Honda HR-V, GMC Sierra, and Toyota Tacoma as export leaders – the vast majority of vehicles rolling out of its factories are sedans and hatchbacks. In fact, the three biggest drops in Mexican exports came from companies whose south of the border factories only build cars – Ford (Fusion/Lincoln MKZ and Fiesta), Mazda (Mazda3), and Volkswagen (Golf and Jetta). Mexican Automotive Industry Association President Eduardo Solis told AN the export shortfall will likely be sorted out sooner rather than later, thanks to a pair of new factories – a Kia car factory and an Audi SUV plant – that are coming online by year's end. The two facilities will add around 100,000 vehicles to the country's export totals, which Solis said should leave the industry on the verge of breaking another export record in 2016. But how sustainable will these record-breaking years be? Slapping an "Hecho en Mexico" sticker on a new German SUV won't be enough to change the fact that Mexico's product mix is tilted too heavily towards body styles that are not growing in volume. Mexico's record-breaking export years probably aren't at an end, but we'd argue they're certainly under threat.

Mazda recalling 18k Mazda6 and RX-8 models over airbag inflators

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Faulty Takata airbag inflators keep taking their toll on automakers. Mazda is the latest to be affected in the US by announcing a recall covering 18,050 Mazda6 and RX-8 models to replace the front, passenger-side airbags. Specifically, the campaign covers 18,000 Mazda6 units from the 2003 and 2004 model years built between May 29, 2002, and March 4, 2004, and 50 RX-8 vehicles from the 2004 model year made between June 25, 2003, and June 30, 2003.
As with the rest of the vehicles with these faulty inflators, it's possible for the part to rupture when deploying the airbag and potentially spray shrapnel at the occupant. Mazda's defect notice goes into a bit more detail than most about the problem saying: "some propellant wafers have been produced with an inadequate compaction force, or may have been exposed to uncontrolled moisture conditions (those wafers could have absorbed moisture beyond the allowable limits)."
This isn't Mazda's first difficulty with Takata-supplied airbags this year. The company was among the seven automakers that recalled vehicles in hot-weather states over the inflators. It also had to recently fix 42,000 Mazda6 vehicles in China over the issue.

Airbag recall widens to include BMW, Chrysler, Ford and Toyota

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands
