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/ |

Red Bull RX-7 goes drift crazy on New Zealand's Crown Range
Tue, 07 May 2013For the first time ever, the Crown Range, New Zealand's highest paved road, was closed off for the drifting pleasure of one man. That man is Mad Mike Whiddett, and the machine he's piloting is a heavily modified Mazda RX-7 sponsored by the energy-rich crew from Red Bull and powered by a 750-horsepower quad-rotor engine. There will be smoke. Lots and lots of smoke.
Mad Mike hits speeds in excess of 140 miles per hour over the course of the road's six and a half miles, which boasts 47 individual corners at over 3,500 feet of elevation. Scroll down for all kinds of fire-belching, tire-squealing and smoke-inducing action. Or, as Mad Mike himself puts it, "A dream turned into reality."
Mazda has right mix to chase 120,000 more US sales
Wed, 05 Dec 2012The Mazda MX-5 Miata was named to Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list for the eighth year in a row and for the fourteenth time overall. The CX-5 tops or comes in as runner-up on every AOL Autos staff poll we take on compact crossovers. The Mazda3 is a perennial favorite among auto critics. That's three clear, unquestioned winners in the Mazda showroom. So, why does Mazda seem to struggle sometimes for recognition and clarity in the marketplace?
For that, I chatted with Mazda North American Operations President, Jim O'Sullivan, who has run the outfit since 2003. O'Sullivan, a former Ford sales and marketing executive who came to Mazda from Dearborn, MI when Ford owned a controlling stake in Mazda, is one of the quieter, but very menchy, leaders in the industry whose longevity in the job speaks to the stability of Mazda.
Mazda6 Skyactiv-D racecar gets first win at Road Atlanta
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Mazda has a long motorsports history, and one that is peppered with fascinating cars. The latest chapter in Mazda's racing story has just been written, as Joel Miller and Andrew Carbonell have driven the Visit Florida Racing Mazda6 Skyactiv-D to the car's first ever victory at the Rolex Grand-Am GX race at Road Atlanta. The win marks the first ever for Mazda's diesel-burning, production-car based Skyactiv-D racer, and the first win for a diesel-powered car in a Grand-Am event.
In fact, it was a particularly good day for the Mazda Motorsports team, as a Mazda6 also picked up the third finishing spot at Road Atlanta. Director of Mazda Motorsports, John M. Doonan, said of the racecar, "We've always said that the best street cars make the best racecars, and, with more than half of the components in the race engine being shared with the street engine, this program is a solid proof-point."
SpeedSource Engineering, which helped to build the Mazda6 racer, was greatly heartened by the car's performance in just it's fourth-ever race. Owner Sylvain Tremblay called the victory, "a tribute to the thousands of hours of hard work over many months," continuing, "The normal plan with a new car is to spend the first year in development, the second year seeking race wins, and challenging for a championship in year three. We are already at our year-two status after four races. We can't wait to get to the Belle Isle course in Detroit for round five."
