Up for auction my extremely clean 1993 mazda rx7. I have owned this car for about 2 years and it has been a joy. The turbos boost properly and car drives great. I put about 12,000 miles on it since I have owned it. New motor and turbos installed at 100k back in 1999 have the almost 10,000 dollar receipt to prove it. The mechanics of the car are unmolested-no aftermarket bolt ons. I do have a stainless steel HKS downpipe that goes with the car, just couldnt bring myself to install it. I did install some cosmetic add ons though. They include R1 lip spoiler, JDM Kouki tailights, JDM Nardi Torino Leather steering wheel, JDM center armrest pad which replaces the ashtray , JDM stainless steel kick plates, smoked front blinkers and rx8 18 inch rims with tires that have about 800 miles on them. Also put a glass sunroof in it from a 1994 which still has the black out panel insert that you can't find anymore. I have a delphi boost guage in steering column which matches factory guages perfectly. Laser cut plastic floor mats to protect the original ones. I upgraded the bose stereo system with new speakers and a clarion CX501 stereo with blue tooth. Bose wave tube still installed and functional. I still have the original rims with good tires I will let go with the car. I have changed the oil myself. Installed new spark plugs wires and fuel filter. I have also installed cross drilled rotors with ceramic pads front and rear. I beleive the car has had a repaint in its life because there is no clear pealing off-which is common in these. There is a weird spot on left front corner on roof that looks like sap had got on it. Have to get close to notice it but its there. I was also told I need rear pillow ball bushings it makes a kind of popping noise in rear while breaking. It looks like to me there is slight oil seep out of the right rear corner of the oil pan. I have a lift in my garage thats how I noticed this. Also the interior is in excellent shape but the drivers seat needs some attention. Feel free to ask any questions I am sure I left some stuff out. I believe I have a very reasonable reserve based on the mileage of the car. It's a very nice looking daily driver but not perfect. 500 dollar deposit in paypal upon auction close. Cash or cashiers check in person. .

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata first engine shot revealed

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

We've dug deep for just about every scrap of 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata info available out of the car's California reveal celebration, but powertrain particulars have been especially hard to come by. While we still don't have engine specifications, the folks over at Autoweek have scored a nice scoop - the first underhood photos of one of the display cars.
In the image above, the ND-generation Miata is clearly shown to be powered by a Skyactiv inline four-cylinder, as expected, but its displacement remains unclear. The engine is most likely either the 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G engine offered in low-end Mazda3 and CX-5 models or the 2.5-liter Skyactiv-G found in those same vehicles' upper trims. In those iterations, the 2.0-liter generates 155 horsepower and 154 pound-feet of torque, while the larger-displacement engine nets out at 184 hp and 185 lb-ft. There is no sign of a turbocharger, a feature rumored to be fitted to at least one test mule. There has also been previous rumors of a 1.5-liter Skyactiv engine, possibly for overseas markets.
The 2.0-liter strikes us as the most likely scenario, particularly as Mazda has worked diligently to save every gram in the new car, dropping a pledged 100 kilograms (220 pounds) over the current model, even while adding content. It's entirely possible that the alleged turbo car was, in fact, a mule for the Miata's Alfa Romeo sister car, which is expected to have a wholly different powertrain. Or it could simply be a second engine option for an eventual Mazdaspeed variant, perhaps.

Mazda3 versus BMW 1 Series and Audi A3 in Euro diesel showdown

Sun, Dec 21 2014

It's not exactly a Tesla Model S taking on a Ferrari, but for us green enthusiasts, a drag race and comparison between reasonably priced diesel hatchbacks does hold interest, and UK's Auto Express was kind enough to do the deed. When raced, the diesels actually laid a little rubber coming off the line, though the track was covered in rain. Did we mention it was in the UK? The comparison was between diesel hatchbacks priced at less than 22,000 British pounds (about $34,500 US), and Auto Express pitted a Mazda3, a BMW 1-Series and an Audi A3 against each other. The results are revealed in the 11-minute video you can watch below. In short, one car smoked the others. In order to set the tone, you should know that the Mazda's 150 horsepower is about 35 more than the other two entrants. The Mazda also earned points for its quiet motor (it sounds more like a petrol engine, the host says), standard equipment that would add about $4,000 to the other two cars if included and relative roominess in front and in back. The Audi gained points for its storage space, while the BMW had the only rear-wheel-drive car in the hunt. See for yourself how the competition stacks up.

2018 Mazda CX-5 spied testing in Southern California

Tue, Aug 9 2016

It appears the replacement for the Mazda CX-5 is on its way. The current model, though a few years old at this point, is still one of our favorite crossovers on the market. Its combination of handsome styling, practicality, and a genuine fun-to-drive nature make it a winner in our hearts. Hopefully this new model doesn't stray too far from that winning recipe. At least on the outside, that seems to be the case. The spy photos reveal Mazda's Kodo design language in full bloom. The general shape is the same as the current model, but the curves are a little tighter and appear similar to the new CX-9 and Chinese-only CX-4. The grille loses the horizontal bars for a deep-set mesh pattern, while the whole fascia appears to be more upright. The headlights and taillights look to be slimmer and slightly re-sculpted versions of the current shape. Other details for the upcoming CX-5 are scarce. The crossover is expected to debut next year as a 2018 model. It's unknown what engines or transmissions will be available, though the current powertrains are likely to carry over. There's also the rumor of a Mazda diesel making its way over, but, as always, it seems like a long shot. Related Video:
