Does anyone have an LS window sticker?

I’m in need of a copy of an LS window sticker (options, and price), because last appraisal (total loss value) was done in 2003 my insurance company will be needing a new one. Where my dad use to take it (local mazda dealer) there was a guy that knew a lot about 7s, but he does not do appraisals anymore and the new used car manager does not have any pricing on the LS just the S and GS. I found a guy that will give me an appraisal but wants to know a few things; window sticker, and a price of one that sold. Then he said he will take into account the upgrades and the condition of the car and give me a new value for my insurance company. Can anyone help?



Thanks,
Chris

Thanks mazdaverx713b!

The only info I have is from

http://www.rx7city.com/firstgenspecs.htm

The window sticker will give me some nice hard evidence. . . Then I’ll just need to do it find one that sold.

So far I found a partscar LS, dont know if it ever sold but its something

http:www.mazdaforum.com/m_77240/printable.htm $1,000 sound a little steep.

Here is a high quality scan of GS "Leather Sport" Dealer Sticker. Good luck! Consider getting collector car insurance from Hagerty. You can insure as much as you want and may even save money. I got better coverage for less than Geico, although now Geico offers collector car insurance also. Depends how much you drive it.

Those are cool. I wonder if anyone has one for a 1983 GSL.

those 2 different stickers are interesting. i notice one is mazda motors east and the other is mazda motors central. in 1980 mazda usa was very different than it is now. i believe it was 5 different companies (northwest, western, central, gulf and eastern). writing this, i'm kinda vauge on how that would have worked, more research needed!

it does make you wonder when the sticker got put in the car doesnt it? if it was endorsed by mazda in the usa then it seems like it wouldnt be put on in japan.

Mazda operating as different companies across different regions of the USA might logically account for why there is such a distinct difference in the detail provided on these dealer invoices.

I wish mine had more of the specific breakdowns concerning what makes the LS unique, such as "Gold" wheels, leather wrapped steering wheel, shifter, upgraded radio, special stripping, etc.

"Power-boosted vent systems" - that's funny!

The "Anti-Corrosion Side Sill Paint" is interesting to see on there. Great-Granddaddy of the 3M ClearBra film!
