Hello everyone , today i got my first Rx-7 and this is the best site on the net about 7's, its a 1980 not sure on the model i asked the person who sold it to me but he was not sure either heh , anyone know what models were made that year? it has black vinyl( spelling ) interior...:) oh and it has a 12a.

Congrats dude, and welcome to the forum.

Welcome! I hope you enjoy your machine as much as the rest of us do :)

heh, i just bought my 1980 on friday... congrats... mine came with 2 12a's... and a very straight body with nice paint... for $300... i still have to find out what was wrong with it... lol :p:

Good stuff, welcome to the wonderful world of Rotary. Shouldn't be too hard to work out your model. I suspect its an GS.

its in running order everything works great no dents a little rust nothing that a bit of work will get rid of, pay 1200$ canadian for it :) i love it, ive been in love with 7's ever since i took an intrest in cars, i just turned 16 still have my L so i got a couple months to play with it :)

Congrats!!!!! Drive safe

- Red with grey pinstriping
- factory mags
- sunroof
- black vinyl interior no tears in seats but dashboard is cracking.
- everything works (lights, heater, ac, stereo... ect)
- 1980
- im prety sure the model is a GS its the only badge its missing heh .
- engine is running great and strong , atleast for now i hope it doesnt decide to crap out or anything.
i will be taking some pictures today.

i payed 1200$ canadian for it proly around $700 american i suppose.

miles? (or km as the case may be)

o ya klicks... well the owner i purchased it from did not use the car much at all, i think its around 80-100k at the most , im prety sure its even lower , seems to have excelent power.
