1988 Mazda RX7 GXL review from North America
"Rotary power baby"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Just some small things are wrong with it.. like the antenna went out and the sunroof has trouble.
General comments?
Well I got this car from a friend and it runs awesome. Yes there are a few problems with it, but nothing major... Hey what cars don't have problems? (all the people who say this car suxs or w.e) This car is highly recommended for a first car. The speed is alright.. i wish it were faster, but I love the handling on this car. Turns great on corners. The sound of this car is outstanding for stock. it makes that whistle noise that makes your car sound like it has turbo or something expensisive in it.
So anyways I had a question if anyone wants to help answer it.
Basically when I got this car it had OK gas mileage, but now its getting worse it seems like. I'm not sure if its the gauges or what, but are there any helpful ways to get better gas milegae for this car?
