1993 Mazda RX7 3rd Gen FD CYM Base 5spd

History:
This is the 60th 3rd gen produced by Mazda (based on the VIN). The color is Competition Yellow Mica. Mazda sold only 350 cars in this color in the US. This color was never offered in the US in the Base model. 
This is an unusual color/model combination.
I am the second owner of this car. The first owner purchased the car in Canada. He sold the car after replacing the engine when he blew a radiator hose and drove it until it overheated. I imported the car to the US in January of 1998 for use as my daily driver with 58,000 miles on the odometer. I had a rebuilt engine installed in March of 2003 with 112,963 miles on the chassis. The car became a fair weather garage queen after the rebuild and has seen only 12,000 miles since then (currently at 125,000).

Specs:
This car was originally sold in Canada. The only difference between the US and the Canadian models is the odometer displays kilometers and the car has day time running lights. Note the picture of the odometer shows 201,030 km (this is 124,941 miles).
This is a 1993 5 speed Base model 3rd generation RX7. Most of the maintenance has been performed by Mike Ploof at Berge Mazda (a Mazda 3rd gen certified and well respected mechanic).
The car is stock with the following exceptions:
 - GAB Super R adjustable shocks at all 4 corners (great shocks).
 - Eibach front sway bar.
 - Petit Racing boost gauge with mount integrated in steering housing (see picture).
 - Straight pipe replaces muffler (about a 50 lbs weight loss & great idle sound. The precats muffle most noise. The factory muffler is still available).
 - Upgraded radio: Kenwood radio/CD, Remote Kenwood 10 disc changer, Kenwood EQ, Rockford Fosgate Punch 600 Amp, Sub box.
 - Tinted windows.
The following extras were completed when engine was rebuilt 12K miles ago:
 - Stock turbos were rebuilt and balanced.
 - New wiring harness.
 - New precat.
 - Miata cooling fan temp switch installed (comes on at lower temp).
 - Replaced engine mounts.
 - AWS line capped at both ends - avoids 3K RPM @ startup.
Known faults:
 - Small wear spot in driver side seat (see picture).
 - Plastic seat belt holder on driver side seat cracked (see picture).
 - Leather worn on passenger side of stick shift knob (see picture).
 - Passenger window switch broken on driver side (see picture) (switch on passenger door works).
 - Cubby door on driver door is cracked (see picture).
 - Power antenna does not extend (common problem that I didn't fix when I realized the radio works fine without ant ext).
 - Paint chips on lower part of front bumper (see picture).
 - Small door ding in driver door (see picture) (no paint damage).
 - Small ding on top of hood (see picture) (very hard to see - even in person).
 - Paint chip in rear quarter panel (see picture).
 - Damaged driver side fog light.
 - Cassette for 10 disc changer is damaged.
 - Small plastic kick plate near drivers right knee is missing (see picture).

Vehicle is listed for local sale. Auction will be cancelled if sold locally.

Meet our new long-term 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata Club!

Tue, Jul 19 2016

We have a new Miata! For a year! And yeah, we're excited about it. This adorable roadster was added to our fleet over a month ago, but we've just now stopped driving it long enough to tell you about it. You can watch our unboxing video for this new long-termer above. (Spoiler alert: The car in the box is a Miata.) Then read a little more about which options and features we chose and why. What we got We chose the mid-line Club model because it's the only way to get the suspension with Bilstein shocks, the limited-slip differential, and a shock-tower brace. Club also includes an appearance package with a front air dam, side sill extensions, a rear bumper skirt, and a ip spoiler for the trunk. We chose Ceramic Metallic paint because it's white and silver and awesome all at once. The only option we chose is the Brembo/BBS Package. In addition to the upgraded brake system and 17-inch wheels alluded to by the title, this package adds Mazda's advanced keyless entry – you can unlock the doors and start the car without taking the key-thing out of your pocket. The MSRP for the car is $32,835. What we skipped The Grand Touring trim (too fancy), the automatic transmission (too few pedals), and extra-cost red paint (not ceramic enough). Grand Touring adds lots of convenience stuff like rain-sensing wipers and auto climate, some active safety systems, and leather. We wanted the upgraded chassis instead, and we' were trying to save some (hypothetical) money. Why we got it Because it's a Miata, and we like fun. The plan is to drive the bleep out of it for a year and report on the experience along the way. We'll take it to a track or two, keep the top down as far into winter as possible, and then slap some snow tires on it to continue . Maybe at a slight angle relative to straight-ahead at times. We'll see. If you have questions about this car, leave them in the comments below and we'll address as many as we can during the coming months. Miata! Related Video:

Editors' Picks March 2024: Refreshed Acura TLX, the Mazda CX-90 and more

Mon, Apr 1 2024

This month, a wide variety of body styles and powertrain propositions earn Editors' Picks status. The brand-new Mazda CX-90 has impressed us in many forms, but that comes as no surprise. The Tonale from Alfa may not be a super-hot performance SUV like the Stelvio Quadrifoglio, but it's still captured our love. And for those wishing to remain lower to the ground, the V60/V60 Cross Country bring style to the limited pie that is the wagon market. Lastly, Acura updates its TLX, and the package only gets better. In case you missed previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get an EditorsÂ’ Pick designation. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. You'll find the entire list of Editors' Picks at this link here, which we keep updated as cars are either added or dropped from the list. The vehicles youÂ’ll find below consist of every car we rated in March that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2024 Mazda CX-90 2024 Mazda CX-90 PHEV Premium Plus View 70 Photos Quick take: The driver's three-row SUV. Enthusiasts who need space should seek out the CX-90. It translates Mazda's enthusiast DNA into a people hauler. Score: 8 What it competes with: Honda Pilot, Kia Telluride, Jeep Grand Cherokee L, Chevy Traverse, Subaru Ascent, Ford Explorer, Toyota Highlander, Mazda CX-9, Kia Sorento, Buick Enclave, Nissan Pathfinder, VW Atlas Pros: Lovely to drive inline-six; premium interior; will make you forget you're driving a family hauler Cons: Limited third-row and cargo space for the segment; PHEV is rough around the edges From the editors: News Editor Joel Stocksdale — "With excellent driving dynamics, classy interiors, strong powertrains and good value, the CX-90 should be high on anyone's shopping list, whether they're looking at mainstream or upscale brands. It's a strong competitor in a big field. The available interiors put it on par with some real upscale brands. It's not perfect, but it's very good, and it's a good sign for future Mazdas." Road Test Editor Zac Palmer — "There's little doubt that the CX-90 is the affordable three-row SUV for enthusiasts, and I think the inline-six is likely your best bet.

Will the new Mazda Miata be available with multiple engines?

Mon, 01 Sep 2014

At this point, the countdown until the launch of the all-new, fourth-generation 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata can be measured in hours until its September 3 unveiling as easily as it can in days. With the debut of such a highly anticipated model so close, the rumors about the new sports car are starting to boil over.
We recently heard that the new Miata would likely get a 2.0-liter Skyactiv four-cylinder with a six-speed manual, plus a decent drop in weight compared to the current gen. There's even the rumored possibility of a fastback coupe version sometime in the future.
Now, Australia's GoAuto is adding another dollop of speculation into the mix with the claim that there could be "potentially more engine options," according to Mazda Australia managing director Martin Benders to the website. The more potent option would still be the 2.0-liter Skyactiv with a power bump from its current 167 hp to closer to 200 ponies. The other possible powerplant option would be a 1.5-liter, naturally aspirated four-cylinder taken from the upcoming Mazda2 replacement. This version would also ditch some of the MX-5's more premium features to cut the weight and the price slightly.
