Introduced in 1978, the first-generation Rx-7 ran all the way up to 1985 and boy did it become legendary over the years. This GSL-SE model is the most coveted of the first edition Rx-7 family. The 1. 3 liter, 13B Wankel rotary engine replaced the previous 1. 1-liter 12A twin rotor engine in 1984. With 34% more power and 14% more displacement that resulted in 135hp and 133 lb-ft of torque. Mated exclusively to a manual 5 speed transmission with a 7,000-rpm redline, this fuel injected rotary engine rocketed the Rx-7 from 0-60 in under 8 seconds with a top speed of 125mph. Not bad considering this engine is also naturally aspirated. For its final year of production, the Series 3 featured an updated lower front fascia. The SE edition was blessed with larger brake rotors in 1985 and utilized the more common lug nuts as opposed to lug bolts. Upgraded suspension with stiffer springs and shocks were also a bonus feature for the 1985 model. Take a look at the photos and video and you will see how well this car has been maintained and cared for. The Sophia Red Metallic paint is still shiny with the typical wear one...

1985 was the last year Mazda offered the 'tear-drop' RX-7 chassis that offered Rotary power for the first time in a Mazda product. This rare ownership opportunity is headlined by the revolutionary 'Wankel' Rotary engine. The Rotary engine defied the norm with its design by featuring a triangular rotor that revolves around the combustion chamber instead of traditional pistons, resulting in a much smaller displacement. On top of this, the engine was so light and compact that it could be mounted behind the front axle and meant the RX-7 could achieve a perfect 50/50 weight distribution. Following the initial success of the 12A engine, Mazda continued to offer it in the 1985 model year such as this vehicle. Estimated horsepower was an even 100 which on a small, nimble car is a healthy number for some high rev line fun. Paired to this peppy motor is a responsive 5-speed manual transmission that had a clutch swap in 2006 according to the seller's records. The car comes in its original Black paintjob that has held up well over the course of its life although there are some small rock chips on the front end from highway driving. Aluminum alloy sport wheels give...

The engine defied the norm with its design by featuring a triangular rotor that revolves around the combustion chamber instead of the traditional pistons, resulting in a much smaller displacement. On top of this, the engine was so light and compact that it could be mounted behind the front axle and meant the RX-7 had a perfect 50/50 weight distribution. Following the initial success of the 12A engine, Mazda introduced the slightly higher displacement 13B rotary engine with a larger output of 135hp that was exclusive to the GSL-SE in 1984/85. Paired to this peppy motor is a responsive 5-speed manual transmission and unique to the GSL-SE over base model RX-7-s is limited slip differential, larger brakes and distinctive wheels (the owner has stated he will include these original wheels with the sale).

The car has been repainted in its original silver, it features a...
