Vehicle Description
The 1988 Mazda RX-7 has matured into an intriguing and attractive
grand touring machine, and the convertible version is the ultimate
expression of the open road. That's why we're very excited to see
an affordable example that retains all the features that makes this
such a unique and desirable sports classic.
The RX-7 is a machine that's always full of clever ideas, and
dropping its top only adds to the appeal. Dressed in its
factory-correct white, the paint retains nice gloss that's right
for a sunshine-friendly convertible. One of the reasons why these
Mazdas retain their desirability is the build quality. The
headlights fit flush against the body; the black trim line remains
virtually unbroken as it encircles the entire car; and the special
15-inch BBS wheels retain a premium style. It makes for an
attractive total package.
A car like this is meant to be open to the world. So the blue/gray
leather interior does a nice job of complementing the exterior
white. The carpeting, door panels, dash, and bucket seats all look
quite original. In fact, you even get the premium factory
AM/FM/CD/cassette stereo that has special speakers in the headrests
with individual volume control (it's just one of those premium and
unique touches that make this generation RX-7 so cool.) You'll slip
behind the sporty three-spoke steering wheel and get excited as you
grip the well-placed stick shift. Your heart will begin beating a
bit faster as you watch the red-faced gauges begin to dance - and
yes, the tach is prominently the center just like a Porsche. But
more than just a pure sports machine, the RX-7 was Mazda's flagship
car, and so there are plenty of luxury features. It includes, power
windows, power mirrors, power steering, cruise control, a power
folding top, and air conditioning to help keep you cool while
looking cool in this drop-top.
The RX7's real calling card was the revolutionary two-rotor Wankel
engine. This is believed to be the original motor, and its
exceptional appearance tells you this was well-respected. The
rotary motor has a compact design and a smooth nature that was an
ideal combo. It delivers the same power package as its six and
eight-cylinder competitors, but with a high-revving 7,000 RPM for a
unique dose of performance. And you get to experience all of the
powerband thanks to the full control of the five-speed manual
transmission. Plus, the fully independent suspension, nice weight
distribution, grippy BF Goodrich tires, and four-wheel disc brakes
combine to offer the ideal mixture of performance and comfort.
Complete with owner's manual and maintenance records, this modern
classic is a blast to drive down your favorite twisting piece of
pavement - with the wind in your hair and the sun overhead. So at
this price, it's a total package classic that won't be with us
long. Call today!!!
