1986 Mazda RX7 GSX review from North America
"Cheap, fun little sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch kept on going (no fault of mine).
Catalytic converter & exhaust replaced.
Seats worn a bit.
General comments?
Very fun 1st car! It wasn't the most reliable car (it DID push over 200 000 k's before I sold it).
Handles awesome! Speed and acceleration are similar to other cars of its year/class (ex: Supra, Fiero, 240SX etc..).
