1979 Mazda Rx-7 S Coupe 2-door 1.1l on 2040-cars
Lafayette, New Jersey, United States
|
For sale: 1979 Mazda RX7. All original, interior, paint, wheel, etc. This car is as when purchased new. This car is automatic with 35,825 original miles; color is white and has a sunroof. One adult owned. I only transferred title to my name. As I know, the car spent most of its life garaged and while I've been in possession of her she has remained garaged. She has not been modified or altered. The paint is all-original. There are several spots that appear to have been touched up prior to me. There is a small spot of rust by the rear hatchback. The interior is original. There are a couple of spots in the interior that show wear, more specifically a seam and cut. I purchased the trim for the door handle pulls, but have not installed them. I periodically run, wash and clean the interior; she isn't taken out and driven. The Paint is original but is not as shinny as when new. There is only slight surface rust on the frame rails as far as I can see. For the age, she is quite clean. The engine is unmodified and stock. I replaced the battery with a Diehard Gold. Tires are in great shape as they have extremely low miles by the amount of tread remaining. The spare is full size and has the same rim as pictured on the car. The car does come with factory air conditioning, but needs a recharge/servicing. Am/Fm radio, manual steering. One of the retractable headlight motors does not operate,
but does rotate freely and can be manually deployed. All the lighting interior
and exterior operates as it should. Not pictured is the rear louver that came with the car. It currently is not on the car and needs to have the hinges repaired. The hinges were damaged during its transportation to me. Overall the car is a good example of what the car looked liked when new. The RX7 was originally purchased in California. Since taking possession of her I have kept her in running order. However I do not drive the vehicle. I have garage kept her in the same location and the stall where she lives and does not show any fluid on the concrete. The rear axle differential area is moist, but no drips, but I don't know if that was from a previous servicing or the oil wicking. I have not inspected the brakes but in the short driving around the block they have worked fine and did not pull at that time. I have the owners Log Book,Manufacturer's Limited warranty and service book and the owners manual. All manuals are original. I only have one set of keys and the main key does show Mazda. I could not confirm it is the original. The only records I have are what is listed in the service book. Since the car only has 35,825 mile, the last entry was on 5/16/83. I was not given any other records for maintenance services. (I also have the original invoice.) I only titled the vehicle in my state. It has not been through any state inspection in the recent few years. It was last titled and registered in Connecticut (approx. 2002). If you wanted to inspect the car, it can be arranged. Please inspect the photos. I've tried to represent the condition as best one can, but it is best, as you know, to inspect the vehicle in person! (Questions, please give 48 hours to get back, usually it is much sooner!) The RX7 is available for inspection. For additional pictures: m.flickr.com/#/photos/flying480/sets/72157630985748062/ |

Next Mazda MX-5 Miata headed for 2015 Chicago debut
Fri, 17 Jan 2014Twenty-six years after it was introduced at the 1989 Chicago Auto Show, the much anticipated fourth generation Mazda MX-5 Miata will meet the press at the 2015 Chicago show. A piece in Autocar refines some of the details on the larger, lighter Miata that a Mazda insider has said will be "our best-looking car ever."
The company has relented on the quest for the metric tonne, the 1000-kilogram (2,200-pound) target too difficult to achieve in light of cost constraints. You can still expect it to lose a generous dollop of weight - Autocar says a curb weight of 1,100 kg (2,420 pounds) will still make it the lightest in its class. And Mazda will be stressing a fun driving experience through light weight and a modest amount of naturally-aspirated horsepower. Engine capacities of 1.5 and 2.0 liters are expected. Sounds familiar (and good), right?
The Miata's interpretation of Kodo design will be veer from that found on the Mazda3 and Mazda6, with "very clean and simple" lines marking out "more muscular proportions" and elongated bodywork on a longer wheelbase. A stretched engine bay will make room for the current Skyactiv engine and perhaps the future Skyactiv 2 powerplants, initial reports suggesting there could be a 30-percent increase in fuel economy from the moment it arrives.
2015 Mazda3 shows its shape
Tue, 12 Feb 2013Mazda's new Kodo design language is set to quickly spread across the automaker's entire lineup, judging by these spy shots of the next-generation Mazda3 that show some very familiar styling cues. No matter, we're impressed with what Mazda has done on the CX-5 crossover and Mazda6 sedan in terms of design, and we're happy to see the C-segment hatchback ditching the smile-for-a-mile Nagare design.
It's unclear what sort of architecture is found below the new Mazda3 - our spy shooters suggest that the car could simply be using a heavily massaged version of the Ford C1 platform found under the current car. Our best guess is that it's actually a reworked version of the platform used in the CX-5 crossover, however, chocked full of weight-saving Skyactiv technologies. After all, the CX-5 plays in the compact CUV segment, and those vehicles are commonly based on C-segment platforms. And besides, there's probably some economic savings at work with the new chassis - both in terms of fuel efficiency and economies of scale. Still, no one is totally certain what lies under all that black-and-white paper at the moment.
The new Mazda3 is targeted to arrive for the 2015 model year, meaning we could see a final production car debut as early as this year. We expect the hatch you see here to debut along with a traditional four-door sedan, and unless we hear otherwise, we don't doubt that a Mazdaspeed version will be far behind.
Mazda's awesome Hiroshima museum now navigable by Google Maps
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Visiting an auto museum is one of the best ways we know to connect with car culture and to commune with the past and bone up on one's knowledge. Most of us have a decent museum within a few hours drive of where we live, but that doesn't mean it's easy to see the world's great collections - factors like cost, time and mobility can get in the way. Videos are great, but they don't allow us to browse at our own pace or choose what we'd like to focus on. The folks behind Google Maps have a solution - the virtual museum tour, as seen here at Mazda's fantastic museum in Hiroshima, Japan.
The Google Maps tour allows viewers to take a walk through the main exhibition area of the museum, and you can focus on specific classic cars from Mazda, or check out displays featuring new technologies like Skyactiv. To take a quick spin through the museum - or a leisurely stroll at your own pace - scroll down to start your own virtual tour.
