but are there really " Probably fewer than 1,750 of this model and year left in North America !!!” ....... must be more '84, GSL-SE's than that surely..... nearly 400,000 1st gens went to North America :?
Does seem a small percentage of survivors :? I like the ruched doorcards and that burgundy leather 8-)

1985 Mazda RX-7 Coupe Rotary 12A For Sale ..... £2495...... has also been on ebay for a while

A very rare example of this fast coupe, unmolested and original. Very good condition and interior in excellent conditionand has no cuts or burns etc. New rotor tips fitted recently by specalist after a long lay up. New front tyres, service record and all receipts. MOT until October 2014 taxed to end March 2014. Electric windows, steel o/e sun roof, pop up head lights all original tools and jack. A very good runner but I am (at 70 years) just too old to enjoy it any more. A spare set of alloy wheels and workshop manual comes with the car

yeah, it was in Ayr and has been for sale for a while then the owner px'd it last weekend with a car trader who bunged a huge markup on the price and stuck it on Ebay and well as trying to hawk it around this forum. We're not in the business of providing free advertising for greedy traders so he's now gone to explore advertising opportunities elsewhere. ;)
