10th Anniversary Question

Hi there,

I have a 10th Anniversary RX7 with just 47000 KM on it, should i keep it stock and prolong its rarity? Or will modding it not decrease the value enough to matter?

Thanks

10th Anniversary Question

Stocker, They are getting harder to find each day

Update the suspension, brakes, and a THROUGH tuneup, and keep the sun off it, its value will only rise

I'd tell you what to do with your car but it's your car and not mine..so really any given opinion would not really matter,would it??.

The 10th anniversary edition model was produced in 80, not 79. It was a cosmetic package applied approx. 8000 cars in total, including the RX-7, as well as the 626 and GLC. (exact numbers / mix among models was not specified) All three models were outfitted in the same livery: Mazda Renaissance Red, pinstriping, and a medallion with the Roman numeral "X".

Here's a link to a thread that shows a little more:

There is a market place section here if you want to
advertise it F/S.

Makes me wonder if this thread was referring to the 1980 10th Anniversary RX-7 or the 1988 10th Anniversary RX-7. But if anyone is reading this and wondering the same thing as the original poster, keep the car as original as possible. The value is in the originality. There may be some parts that are not available new or price practical such as an exhaust system and infeel as though adding a Racing Beat exhaust system would not hurt the value.

I think the original poster had an 88 Anniversary X car and was asking about modifying it. Then someone else resurrected the thread saying they had a 10th A/E (an 80 car) asking about where to sell it, instead of junking it.

thanks yes it is a 1980 X Anniversary edition-- tried to put on marketplace here but was denied access-- reading thru all the posts it appears that I need a minimum number of posts to sell on the marketplace so may not get there-- I do have an offer from this car brain online place that comes and picks up your car- have pictures but they did not need to see- if I can drain out my ethane free gas first I will probably go that way--was gift from my brother who is the original owner , but now need space in garage and I only run it in the summer up and down driveway not onto streets as needs seals or new master brake cylinder and stopping is difficult
