Welcome, Sebastian. That's a very fine looking car you have there. The designation is American-market but it's got UK-style side repeaters and stuff. Doesn't look like a sunroof model, which all of ours over here had IIRC. We never got the rotor wheels either. It's fascinating seeing how many little changes Mazda made for the various markets.

Yes I have seen a lot of variations here, because they enter in Argentina by personal importers, so there are a lot of californian models, japanese models (they entered via Chile), and general american market model like mine, wich is the most beautiful and complete, for me, but 2 big missing part is the sunroof and the electric windows (it have all the wires but nothig else :) ) .
Its full full, has 2 ecu, electronic ignition, 4 disc brakes, altitude compensator, control cruise, electric mirror, electric trunk, electric gas door, the most beatiful rims rotor!!!, all the backlights are black, winshield wiper with water, etc
I will post more pics, but where?
these pics are when I buy it, now has a lot of major improvements
Excuse mi english but its not my language :)

Hi Seb and welcome.

Rotor wheels are quite rare to us.
(The wife and I once saw a set on an RX7 in Bodrum, Turkey, around 1987. The only set we've ever seen except in pics).

Nice RX-7, although I doubt it's a GSL-SE, these where only made for the US market in '84 and '85 with the later style interior and 14 inch rims with a different bolt pattern 4x114,3 as a posed to the rotor rims being 4x110. And off course the 13B!
The rotor wheels are actually quit common here on mainland Europe as they came standard on the high end model (SDX version) from '81 until '83.
Enjoy your Rex!
