First time to have an RX-7 with back seat
Are these a bit more uncommon? It's the first I have had to part out with a back seat, 1988 model, was sorta surprised and didnt even notice at first because it was laid all the way down AND was covered over with junk and extra parts and blah blah. Anyway, what's the scoop on these?

I own a 88 GXL, also 2+2, and have been told that although uncommon, it does not increase the value. They also told me that it was not favored ,which is the reason behind the rarity. However i like mine. I think they look better than the others even though they are generally useless. It also adds weight, minimal yes, but keep in mind its an NA, your obviously not in it for the racing.

when i bought my car, it had the 2+1.5 seat option, its severly uncomfortable, change pit, and would kill some one in a collision who is taller than 5ft, im about 6ft and i had to tilt my head al the way to the side to sit in it.
all that really makes it heavier over the comparment option is the seat belts, the seat it self weightes nothing.
my car also came with a steel n/a hood, which is unusal, and my jdm car came with an aluminum TII hood. mabey i remembered it backwards but im pretty shure its supposed to be the other way around?

200 bucks isn't bad for a TII hood in decent shape. They are a commodity of sorts because tons of NA people want them so they can be posers.

Yeah, I've been looking for a set of rear leathers for awhile. Must say, hard to find, but not very many people like them. They'd only be in my garage for the novelty of having them. I've already sourced a glass sunroof, which I've been told is rare.

I've had 2 FC's with back seats. As a joke I tried fitting my 6' 3" frame into them. It wasn't going to happen. I can't even imagine a midget fitting back there, maybe a baby... I replaced the seats with the fiberglass bin thing.
