Have your 1990 RX-7 Turbo in a video game!!!

We are looking for a 1990 RX-7 Turbo in stock condition (no body kit etc.) around the Seattle/Redmond area for a photo reference shoot. Your car would be used as the base for building and painting the 3D version which will be included in a racing video game. If interested contact Todd Van Home at: a-toddv at microsoft com.

Looks like your car would work, but we would need to re-shoot it in a better location on an overcast day to minimize reflections and shadows.

Did you eamil Todd? If not you need to contact Todd Van Home at a-toddv at microsoft com.

I am guessing they want a 90 because it's the last year the 2nd Gen was made and has the cool rear tail lights.

Oh sorry, I should know better! Shame on me. SO Is 91 the first year with the round spot tail lights?

Was there any 92 2nd Gen's in the US or only Japan?

I know there was some 92 3rd Gens in Japan and possibly Australia, but I didn't know the 2nd Gens were built in 92.

89 was the first year of the Series 5, and the first year of the round tails. 91 was the last year if the second gen in the US. 92 was a skipped year in the US and the first thirdgen was in 93 and was axed, as far as sales, in 94 for the US. Japan, europe, and austrailia are differant animals entirely.

Wish you werent in washington, you could use my car

'92 was not skipped in the US. However, the '92 models were basically the same as the '91s (because they were '91s).

Rx-7s were not produced in '92, they just sold leftover '91 models. Im not sure if thats what you were trying to say or not..
