Thumbs up For those who want some information about the 2nd Gen.

This is mainly for newbies who want to know what are the differences between each model, but still has some good info for all. It's a little hard to understand at times (i'm pretty sure this was translated), but you shouldn't have too many problems.

Except that page is rampant with errors like that the series 5 changed in 88. Hell, there wasn't even a series 5 car built before 12/88.

Things like:
In 1988 a Series II RX-7 appeared, Mazda refreshened the RX-7, with minor exterior changes, the most obvious of which was the rear lights changing from the matrix of four lights on each side…
refreshened??? Series 2??? The series 2 RX-7 was built between 81 and 83 and was the first gen.

Or silly things like:
Other changes to the convertible included a final drive ratio of 3.98:1 ( instead o1 the 410:1 of the coupe ).
where the rear was really 3.91:1 not 3.98:1 and 4.10:1.

And dozens of things like
The RX-7 were topless for 1987
Sorry that page should not be recommended to anyone before it gets proof read and corrected.

You would be much better off recommending pages like:
