I bet I have that same catalog at home...I have a ton of stuff from the late 70's and early 80's, including several year's worth of periodicals from both the RX-7 Club of America, and the Mazda RX-7 Club.

Scan at 300 dpi, 24 bit color, save as jpg file and upload to photobucket and link it here.

I have the rest of this brochure, which I picked up on ebay, if folks are interested I'll scan it in tonight.

That dude looks exactly like the guy I bought my first 7 from, even the moustache, and that was in 2003.
That is classic 1985. I betcha she's wearing leg warmers a la flashdance.
I expected to scroll down and see an official rx7 coke spoon and straw.
