Production numbers..
Just curious if anyone had any idea how many RX's were made per year, per model, per color.. =)
For the 3rd gen's theres a well known reference completely broken down into the formentioned groups, I thought it would be interesting to find out how many '89-'91 TurboII's were made, since it is so %&(*#*$(# difficult to find one at all, regardless of condition. (Plus bragging rights would be nice =P)

Yeah it would be nice if someone had a black book like Chevy did and kept record of every single vette sold and how many of each option, color.
All I know are
10th AE 1500 units all white
'89 GTUs 1000 red, black, or white
'90 GTUs 100 red, black, or white
There are sales figures somewhere, but I don't know about colors and models.

Hey,
We all know that the GTUs is the rarest RX-7, since its an RX-7 model and not merely a color code, or interior code, etc. So all you CYM R1 owners, bite me!! You and your "Only 500 made." Please, its a paint job. Compare it to the mere handful of GTUs's out there. *grin* If my stupid poll was still up, only 4 GTUs owners out of 200+ people who responded, the lowest of all the models. So there! *grin*

1989 GTUs "Woah, its an "s"!"

The serial number is in your VIN, and it's the last 5 numbers...

Just curious; But my GXL RX-7 on the door panel says production date 2/1989...is this considered an 1990 or just plain 89'? And would of been the next production dates to be considered 1990's, wether it was N/A or TII?

Check your VIN - there's a letter in the middle of your VIN.
G = 1986
H = 1987
J = 1988
K = 1989
L = 1990
M = 1991
I think yours is a "K" model or 1989.

So has anyone thought of emailing Mazda USA? Maybe they would be more willing to help than Canada. I'll give it a shot, because know I am kind of interested.
Edit- seems Mazda USA cannot be contacted via email. They only leave a phone number and a mailing address. I'll call and see if I can get some info.

Monito.com is what I call the "holy grail" of RX-7 info sites. Here is a link with some info on production numbers:
