My new 1987 TurboII

1987 Mazda Rx-7 TurboII

-54k original miles
-MINT condition
-2nd owner bought in April of '88
-completely stock except:

1. Racing Beat boost gauge
2. Racing Beat cat-back exhuast
3. Adjustable waste gate
4. Ronal wheels painted "Noble White"

I am so extremely happy that it is my new car! I loathed over it for about 2 weeks that was a roller coaster ride for sure.

I want to thank some great friends Lisa, Minda, and Masin as well as the seller; Randy for making this all happen for me! I cannot express the joy I had while driving this beauty home today.

It is such a great feeling having a stock, well taken care of, un-molested TurboII. Just wanted to share my story with you guys. Here are some pictures for the time being.

-Allen













Thanks again to my friends and Randy for making a dream come true!

+1.. how much did you get it for? That sure is a nice find. It seems harder to find unmolested FCs than it is to find FDs.

Nice find! I found a similar rare site as you. I bought an 87 t2, with 124k km's and 6k km's on rebuild. Mint body, just a bit of rust under the drivers door, right where the tire shoots salt and **** ... I waited patiently for about 6 months.

you better not TOUCH that car with a mod that doesn't look OEM clean. I love it so much! That car is amaznig. Ti's the 3rd FC I've seen in that condition. A black 89 GTU with 33K original miles looked just as new inside and out (saw that one in person), as well as that popular 6 thousand original mile 10th AE on these forums.

eh I would leave it the way it is, if he puts on teh turbo back, he will need fuel mods.. then its not stock anymore. that car is clean as hell, probably one of the cleanest in the country

thanks guys! like I said. I wanted to thank my friends and the seller Randy for making it happen. I am so excited about it. I got it registered and the insurance swapped over on it and cruised all morning in it. I lost count at how many people were gawking over it while cruising in it. haha. I love it.

Jamin... you going to Chip's meet?

Take good care of it man. I'm not gonna Lie, I was in contact with Randy a few days after you made the deposit and I already had full payment. He held out for you and I was really hoping you would fall through on friday. I'm arranging to get a GTUs now though.

Definately take good care of it, i'm glad to see you're on here and you seemm to know about FC's. Good luck with the car!
