FD Playboy car of the year in 1993?
From Wikipedia:
The FD RX-7 was Motor Trend's Import\Domestic Car of the Year. When Playboy magazine first reviewed the FD RX-7 in 1993, they tested it in the same issue as the [then] new Dodge Viper. In that issue, Playboy declared the RX-7 to be the better of the two cars. It went on to win Playboy's Car of the Year for 1993. The FD RX-7 also made Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list for 1993 through 1995.

Well you could always take one for the team, and page through every Playboy since 1993. Just to be sure you don't miss it, I'll do the same thing here too.

I thought it was one of the more memorable car of the year awards the RX7 won in '93! I had stashed that issue with a whole bunch of other magazines and sales brochures on the car. I might've accidentally tossed them when I got rid of a ton of magazines before I moved back east. I'll look -- if I can find it, I'll upload a pic (of the car).
I was just reminded about this award the other day when I saw a thread about a GB on M/T COY decals. I would've preferred the Playboy decal, myself.
I didn't know about them doing the PFS car, though.
