How rare is that, i didn\'t think they sold the Savannah over here?
Must be an import but i have to say if i was looking for a new car i would be taking a trip down to see it.
Chris
Is a nice looking example
What makes the Savannah different to normal spec rx7\'s?
How can you be sure its a savannah anyway? :confused: I thought the savannahs had special seats etc not just the mats? :confused:
thers no diff between a savanah and a normal rex lol apart from the head rests(which is cool as ive got speakers fitted in them!) in the seats!! i got a rex imported from japan,and they jus call it a savanah for sum bizzare reason,i used to own a normal uk spec,as far as i know theres no diff!!!
unless any 1 else knows..........lol
cheers col
Well i have headrest speakers in my vert too so does that make mine a savannah? not fussed but just be good to know
wot about the rear brake light in the boot lid, No fogs,and emmision stuff ?
Im still thinking....
Paul.
I believe that the early turbo II\'s were all savanna\'s and would be import only in the UK. This looks like a strange mix import as it has revised bumper, side mouldings and rear lights, but still has early side indicators and headrest speakers!!!
I have a savannah auto in black so must be very similar to yours hawker182.
.
there exactly the same really,of course being an import a rear fog had to be fitted!! i think i prefer the savanah model,it just looks a bit nicer,call me crazy--but i think it loks neater with the rear brake light,and i prefer the postioning of the front indicaters tooo!!!bearing in mind that the rex7 2nd gen hit japan way b4 the uk --!!! cheers colin
Ok, I stand corrected, but i thought they where more spec\'d up and had diffrent seats (the only ones to have Tan)? also to my Knolage they where all Green, A colour T2\'s where never painted?
But i may be wrong.

Yeah spot on FD3UK. I believe the only ones to only come in green a dark greeny black were the very last RX7 TII\'s to be produced, they were called the Elfini IV and were made to be a competition road car, stripped out, no stereo, no a/c, stiffened and lowered suspension. These are the rarest and were only released in Japan, find one of these and your laughing!
Took this from a website, about the Elfini IV if interested :)
"In 1991 with the end of RX-7 production came the Infini IV, a version of the RX-7 only destined for the Japan market. Again one was briefly brought over to the US where just a few journalists sampled its boosted Turbo power its improved lightweight and 25% stiffened cornering and its fantastic brake performance.
The lightweight version of the Zen religion had thrown out all the sound insulation fitted lighter seats and many components, no radio, lighter bigger exhaust and a lot of hard edged tweaking to the 13B Turbo\'s delivery and top power, (now 215 bhp) in a car dieted down to 2\'700lb, some 287lb less than a stock US spec Turbo).
The car looked a lot more shark like as it rode a full inch lower than standard on standard size wheels and special tyres, only being available in a dark green / black paint
There are VERY few Infini IV\'s in Japan and even less in Australiasia.
"Road and Track magazine said of the Infini IV :
"Through the years we\'ve seen sports cars grow larger, softer and heavier. Which makes Mazda\'s reversal of this trend more exciting. Lets hope that this Japanese market Infini\'s chassis is truly representitive of the new generation\'s and that Mazda\'s stylists have created a shape worthy of the mechanicals".
Pretty cool hey!
