Ok, so it's time to let the world know that I got another Rx5!
Beeing a parent sort of kills of the "I'm going to restor this car" thing... My 78 Rx5 will be sold (already got a buyer). This is a 77 with 67000km on the clock. Check my site for the full story. //Magnus |
Sweet, i like the color!
|
looks like its in great shape. go take more pics!!!!
|
Nice score!!! Can't really tell from the pics, but are those Revolution wheel? They look close to them but I can't tell from your pic. Could you post a close up pics. Fwiw, I have a mint set of Revolutions in the 1st gen parts for sale section.
|
Nice find, great looking Cosmo! I wish I still had mine. :(
So I have a serious question. What's up with calling these cars RX5's? Nowhere on, or in my Cosmo did it say RX5. Is RX5 a Mazda designation for non-USA Cosmo's? Inquiring minds want to know. |
trochoid > The wheels are stock Mazda. They came on the cars here. (boltpatterns 4x120)
inittab > The cars were called Rx5 in most parts of the world. Don't know why they called it Cosmo in the us. We'll just call it CD23C from now on.. :) The paint is not as good as it looks and there is some rust that needs to be fixed but overall the car is in really good shape! More pics for you comming. /Magnus |

It's looks to be in excellent condition! Is it an auto or 5-speed?

It's auto.
All cars sold in Sweden had powerstering, auto and AC. Strange that they did not have powerwindows.... //Magnus |
All it needs are the headlight surrounds. I like the rims.
|
I know people who have the surrounds, just need to buy them :)
Have been driveing some more and I really enjoy this car... last time I had that feeling was when I had the FB with turbo back in 97... // magnus |

I'm doing an auto to manual conversion.
|
nice car! but you really shouldn't put your kid in the front like that, the air bag could go off and........... oh wait, hahah there is no air bag. I love old cars :D
|
Old cars are great!
No tax, cheap incurace...... downsides, not very good IF you crash, not very good on fule...... apart from that it's just fantastic! Our son needs to get to know cars... :) He spends most of his cartime in our Renault Megan or our "new" Volvo V70 (-00) // magnus |
Took the car to this years "Japmeet".
Nice to have an old school there with all the FD's, Supras and Skylines! https://www.rx7club.com/automotive-news-lounge-22/pictures-japmeet-sweden-672949/ //Magnus |
