1985 Mazda RX7 SE review from North America
"The beast"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I got the car for free about three years ago and I had to put spark plugs, wires, dist. cap, and rotor button. And I did a stupid thing and sold it for 500 dollars. The reason I sold it is because at the time I had a 1984 Nissan 300zx turbo, but automatic transmission, and it needed brakes and rotors. About 1 year later I traded the Nissan for a 1979 Chevy c10 with a 350ci motor. And I seen the same car sitting I someones driveway and it was for sale or trade for pickup truck thank goodness. so I said done deal and got it back.
General comments?
IT means the fastest car I have owned, the best running, and the most reliable car I have owned, ever!
