1988 Mazda RX7 review from North America
"It's an amazing first car experience!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first bought my RX-7, the seats were worn in pretty good so I just threw some nice blue NOS seat covers on them and they look and feel lke new. Other than that, just a bit of minor electrical work needed, but no nothing huge and that cannot be fixed yourself.
General comments?
My RX-7 is sporty, it handles like a true pro. I like how low you sit in the car and surprisingly, you have the control feeling. The cabin is very roomy and extreamely comfortable.
