Mazda was looking to produce a replacement for their RX3 model and began production of their new sports car in 1978 making it available as a 1979 model year. The Mazda RX-7 (also called the Savanna and Efini RX-7) was built to be affordable and fun, similar to the Datsun and Nissan 280Z. Featuring many great sport features such as its unique twin-rotor Wankel rotary engine situated slightly behind the front axle, rear wheel drive layout, near 50/50 weight distribution and its sleek sporty front-midship, this vehicle was not only well received by the media but the consumers alike. With its new twin-rotor design, this engine produced 100 hp and was able to top speeds of 120 mph. This was such a smooth running engine that a buzzer was installed to the tachometer to give its driver a warning when pushing 7,000 rpm!
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this low-mileage and one-owner example of the 1979 Mazda RX-7 GS Coupe for your consideration. Coming available to the market for the first time since its inception, this vehicle features the upgraded 5-speed manual mated to its 1.1 L twin-rotor Wankel rotary engine and is sure to bring excitement to the driver behind its wheel! Being in the same home its entire life, this vehicle was clearly well cared for with little wear throughout. The maintenance completed more recently includes front struts, a top idler arm and bushings were replaced, spark plugs and wires swapped, upgraded Koni rear shocks were installed and even a heavier front sway bar swapped for the old one to really give this car a great ride. We are told this vehicle has not had the misfortune to deal with the Michigan winters and has always been garage kept which shows. The exterior looks as sharp as the day it was new considering its original paint is still in great shape, the upgraded BBS wheels are an excellent choice giving it that much more appeal and for the purists, this vehicle also comes with its original 5 wheels and lug nuts. For creature comforts you find the premium leather and suede inserted seats, the upgraded transmission, the power antenna and an upgraded AM/FM/CD/MP3 media center installed for all your music needs. Included in the sale of this time capsule is its original manual, two wheel lock keys for the wheel locks on it currently, a car cover, fitted bra, original mats and thee original wheels and lugs as mentioned before. Call or email us for a closer look at your new favorite toy!
