Mazda RX-7 1.2L 12A Rotary 4BL 1983
General description :
Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is proud to offer a super clean 1983 Mazda RX-7 GSL. When talking about Japanese sports car, it's impossible not to mention the RX-7. Mazda first offered the car in 1978 with a revolutionary engine. The Wankel rotary was an engine which defied the norm with its design. The engine has no pistons, but rather a triangular rotor which rotates around the combustion chamber. The result is a much smaller displacement than the typical piston engine. This RX-7 sports a 1,146cc 12A rotary engine. This engine produced just over 100 horsepower, but was lightweight which allowed the car to have an incredibly balanced 50/50 weight distribution. The entire car was under 2,500 pounds, so there's no doubt why they handle on rails. This particular example is a well maintained 46,010 mile car which is a total survivor. This car comes complete all maintence records since new, including dealer delivery info, and the window sticker. With only two owners and a clean history, this is one for a collector. The color scheme is an attractive dark silver over red cloth interior which is rather fetching. In case you forgot you were in a sports car, the dash features a large center mounted tachometer and the console houses the 5 speed manual transmission shifter. Backing the 5 speed manual transmission is a limited slip differential. This is a true sports car which will continue to appreciate in value. You can see this 1983 Mazda RX-7 in greater detail in our Dallas showroom or at http://www.GatewayClassicCars.com. Please contact 817-310-9400 or dallas@gatewayclassiccars.com with inquiries.
