1991 Mazda RX-7 for sale
Current customer rating: (137 votes ) based onThe second-generation RX-7 was launched in 1986. following an amazingly successful run of the first-generation cars. Between 1979 and 1985. over 415. 00 RX-7s found owners. a staggering figure considering the car's unique rotary engine. For the second generation. Mazda focused on the Porsche 944 as inspiration. which is immediately evident when you see the cars side-by-side. America was the target audience for the FC. since the lion's share of first-generation cars were sold here. And because the 944 proved so popular here. Mazda set out to use the Porsche as a template for what the more mature American was looking for in a sporting automobile. Aside from the obvious design changes. the FC RX-7 was a completely new automobile. Rack and pinion steering replaced the original car's recirculating ball setup. four-wheel disc brakes (with four-piston front calipers on most trim levels) became standard. and a completely revised rear suspension system included a limited degree of passive rear steering during cornering. The convertible came along two years after the successful launch of the hatchback coupe. Remember that this was a period in which the convertible was making a resurgence. You could buy sporty convertibles from almost every manufacturer that offered a competitive car. The difference. though. was that Mazda engineers seemed to be thinking about a convertible during the design phase. rather than shipping coupes to an aftermarket supplier to hack the roofs off and try to make soft tops fit. The RX-7 Convertible was conceived and built in-house. and therefore the quality of the materials used. and the fit 20 years later. are light years ahead of some of Mazda's competition. The design itself was forward-thinking. Mazda engineers wanted a removable top. but weren't going to accept just a removable glass sunroof or Targa/T-tops. as were used in the primary competition from Toyota and Nissan. It had to be a convertible. But a leaky. noisy top was unacceptable. too. The answer was a sort of hybrid top that combined the best attributes of a hard roof (lower noise level. water-tight construction) with those of a convertible (open air driving). The construction of the roof was such that the entire top assembly was simply dropped into place in a single unit on the assembly line.
