i looked at the 87 rx-7's and it's weird because i have the 14 inch alloys and no rear wipers but i do have cruise control and an electric sunroof AND the tilt steering wheel. what's going on? i thought it was the base model?

Number 1: you need to read the sticky threads found at the top of this section. One of them includes standard features and options for each model year.

Number 2: Bumps are forbidden. Your bump has been deleted. Please read the Before posting thread. Don't do it again.

Number 3: from your description you have either a Luxury or a SE ( you didn't mention if it was a 87 or 87.5). The 86 and 87 Base model is entirly different (which you would have seen if you had read the options and standard features thread).

Icemark

no, options and standard features are always correct.

Generally wehn people post comments like that, they really don't understand the way the cars were made, and what standard features and options were available for each sub model.

Of course that is why we created the What did my RX-7 come with, standard features and options sticky thread.

furiousbob

1) this thread is actually based off of those stickies
2) my bad, wont happen again
3) how do i tell?

furiousbob

but i've read that thread! u mean the one with the scanned original docs right?

Icemark

Yep.. what are you not getting on it?

how can u tell if its 87.5 or 87.

furiousbob

ok so theres an 87 and 87.5, how do i tell which one's mine? all i have on my docs are 1987 RX-7 Turbo (which it isn't, cuz theres no turbo tags or turbo or intercooler)

Icemark

whats the production date?

furiousbob

ok so i've checked the 87.5 list. still doesnt explain the sunroof with the 14 inch alloys?

furiousbob

production date.......where can i check that? because if i remember correctly, i mightve caught an 86 under the hood.

ok only the gxl has cruise control. my car is missing a lot of the features from a gxl.

Icemark

again what is the production date?

12/86

Icemark

14 in alloy wheels were standard on the 86-87 Luxury and 87.5-88 SE
14in alloy wheels were optional on the 86-87 base model, however the factory sunroof was not availlable, instantly rulling out the base model as your car.

So by default, you have either a Luxury or a SE, again depending on what model year.

This is pretty straight forward... I am not getting what you are not understanding...

Icemark

you have a 87 luxury

Icemark

Cruise control was a dealer installed option on most models.

That is why it is listed a A (as in Available) on most of the brochures

is the sport package the SE?

Icemark

no, the sport package (GS in mazda production speak) was the Sport package in 86-87.5, and the GTU in 88, and the GTUs for the 89-90.

The 87.5-88 SE was the combination of the 86-87 base model and the 86-87 Luxury (took a little from both, but didn't get everything from both). (GX in Mazda production speak)

furiousbob

ohh ok thanks icemark. i'm a bit slow at this, i've just come out of the honda crx scene. flame on.

Icemark

Civics and CRX's were the same way with the cruise control and air conditioning (a dealer installed option if it was not put on in Japan or Canada)

furiousbob

well i didn't go into detail with the crx's because i didn't care much for it and i knew it was an HF. this rx-7 was originally registered as a turbo FI so that got me confused.
