Mazda RX-7 Cars

Feel the Speed of the Road with the Mazda RX7 Car

The RX7 is among the most iconic, recognisable vehicles in the Mazda line, and more than a million of the cars were manufactured, each of them equipped with Mazda's long-lasting, high-performance Wankel rotary engine. It was among the most technologically advanced cars on the road during its heyday, and it has developed into a sought-after collectible, project car, or daily driver. If you're looking for any of these things, look no further than a new or pre-owned Mazda RX7 for sale on eBay.

How many passengers can comfortably travel in a Mazda RX7?

The Mazda RX7 in the UK had two different seating configurations, both of them based on a two-passenger sports car concept. The first generation RX7 was a straight two-passenger coupe. The second and third generation RX7 were both primarily available as two-seater coupes as well, but they included a 2+2 option for customers who wanted to transport up to four people.

Is there an advantage of having rotary engines?

Among the biggest advantages of the rotary engine is its weight-to-power ratio. The 13B engine that you'll find in an affordable FD Mazda RX7 for sale occupies only about one cubic foot, or 0.02 cubic metres, but can be counted on for more than 250 horsepower. Rotary engines also have fewer moving parts than traditional combustion engines, and they have incredibly smooth power delivery. They can also run steadily at high revolutions without traditional damage concerns. Note, though, if you're looking for an RX7 for sale in the UK, these engines burn oil by design and require the owner to pay more attention to the engine oil.

The specs of the FC RX7

The second generation RX7 for sale is sometimes referred to as the Mazda RX7 FC. There were two body styles available, the 2-door coupe and the 2-door convertible, and there was a 5-speed manual version and a 4-speed automatic version. The vehicle's wheelbase is 2.43 metres; it is 4.3 metres long, 1.69 metres wide, and 1.27 metres high. There are four engines available in a Mazda RX7 FC, all of them Wankel rotaries:

  • 1.3L 13B-VDEI
  • 1.3L turbocharged 13B-T
  • 1.3L 13B-DEI
  • 1.3L turbocharged 13B-T
Features of the RX7 FD car

The third generation of RX7 is sometimes referred to as the Mazda RX7 FD. If you're looking for a collectible Mazda RX7 for sale in the UK, know that less than 70,000 of these were produced, far less than the other models, potentially increasing their value. This is also the only model equipped with a twin-rotor engine, the Wankel 13B-REW.
