I have finally got myself into pure logic, and bought myself a first gen RX-7 !
It`s painted pink alu, and the 12A engine has only gone 94.000km.

The owners estimate is about 150+ horsepower, the interior and the engine is a little bit out of shape so I`l make a little project freshing it up.

very nice :cool

Did you change the bumpers to the later FB ones or was it done before you bought it ?

Any chance of uploading the last two piccies to the forum as your links seem to be broken :(

Cheers ~ Mike

Im 99% certain that it is a 1980,
yes the bumpers have been changed by the guy who own it before me.
It also has electronic mirrors from FB.

It also has two electronic recaro seats,     and a massive audio system.

The dash and sunroof is standard equipment for a 1980 leather edition.

Some pictures of the car here.
