I don't have a rx7 (yet) but in about a month i estimate i will have my 7.
considering i sell my car now and find a good rx7 and save up the rest of the money from work..

So anyway my question is pretty dumb, but i would like to know Does the rx7 have a back seat

KillaKitiie

Yep but it only fits 4ft tall midgit's

Megaton

Hahaha yeah thats what i heard, but in the pictures i don't see any back seat..
BUt thanks for quick reply.
Does the seat fold down or something?

MidnightOwl

Some don't have the back seat, they have little bins.

Icemark

Rear seats were an option on some models.

The options and standard features can be found in the sticky thread found at the top of this section called Standard Features and Options.

Megaton

oh, thats weird..

I do need a backseat, is it like the n/a version has back seat turbo doesn't..
OR is there a way to switch it out so it does?

Luckily the people who would fit in my back seat are about 4ft tall :p

Or i can just like crush my friends legs when we go anywhere HAHAHA yeah, payback.

MidnightOwl

I would imagine you could put them in if you could find some. But you will crush their legs. FC's really aren't intended to haul around 4 people comfortably. They are intended to be super sweet.

Turbo II

Most I've carried in mine... 3. Me and two ladies. One in the passenger seat and one laying across the bins holding on!

Icemark

Why? It is a sports car; not a sports coupe like a 240sx or some FWD economy car converted to a pretend sports car.

And in a sports car it is more weird to have a back seat than not.

You can swap in a backseat from another FC that has one. The metal structure under the Bins or the seats is the same. You would just have to locate the parts as the rear seat is a rather un-common option in North America.

Yes, the rear seats will fit in the turbo, though the turbo did not have rear seats as an option in the US.

marcus219

rear sits are for people who like things in there rear.

unless you have kids i meant no harm

Megaton

Yeah i have two haul around kids a couple a times heh.

But yeah i understand its a true sports car, and its made to be super sweet not for economy
But even if the seats are very small, i would like to have them.

Don't know if any of you guys have experienced this, trying to fit as many of your friends in a car at once? Hahahaha good times..
a two door four seats ( very small) and there was about 7 of us :P
we got it to work though, luckily we didn't have to do that for long.

But yeah i seriously doubt thats going to happen with a rx7

I've fit 5 in mine with the buckets. Me, two in the passenger seat and two on the rear deck .

VacavilleFC

yeah the rear seats are useless, there is ZERO leg room, no joke. i'm not saying theres alittle theres literally none. also i'm pretty sure there not setup for having kids seats in them

McHack

I have rear seats in mine. You can only fit ONE normal sized person back there, sitting sideways. Butt in one seat, legs in the other.

fcunderwater

I've fit two passengers and a "full sized" bicycle in my seven before. Funniest ride of my life, considering that one of my friends had to lay on top of the bike and a handle bar was jabbing him in the bawlz. lol, if anything the lack of room is an excuse for a good laugh...

TehMonkay

iTrader: (-1)

I could fit in the backseat with my knees jabbing into the other seat and my head hitting the cieling.

McHack

ok ok...

If we want to pretent our 7's are phone booths, or old VW bugs, you CAN fit more then one person in the backseat. But, the way those little seats are pinched off, & those heinous seatbelts jam up yer butt, & the lack of ANY leg room at all... It's just not reasonable to expect more than one person to tolerate sitting back there for longer than say, 5 minutes.

LOL...

Depending on the shape and color of your interior, I may be willing to trade my back seats for bins... If the car is in atleast as good of shape as mine I may even be willing to trade cars all together... I live in Arlington, TX...

I've had 2 full size adults in the back of mine.
(and yes thats a CD player, and no it doesn't come up to the top of the seat)

Most US FCs did NOT have a back seat, but a few do. Rear seats are more common in the Japanese ones, I believe.

As I like to say, the back seats are good for groceries and amputees. As you can see from the picture, they are NOT compatable with car seats. The only way anyone can sit in them is if someone in the front seats is short and scoots the seat up. Otherwise there just isn't any room, regardless of how short your legs are. Its a shame they don't fold down, though. My '89 Mustang had almost as useless seats but they could be folded down to extend the trunk area. For the record my cousin (previous owner) fit 8 people in that car. 3 in the front, 3 in the back and 2 in the hatch.
If you really want them, they can be installed in any car, as can bins, or nothing like my car came with originally.

VacavilleFC

haha thats just as bad as me fitting 7 people in my geo metro convertible : me driving 2 in the passenger seat, 2 stuffed behind the seats and chicks in the trunk

C.A.R

Mine fold down... It almost does not look like they are there when they are folded down...

rx788se

Lol... Back seats.. lol thats funny! I understand where ur coming from though.. when i was a kid my dad forced me to sit in the back seat of his..
lol
i hated it.. but it was a good ride.. not for me.. but..
