Amazingly Clean And Original 1988 Mazda Rx-7 Convertible 5 Spd Only 17,500 Miles on 2040-cars

  1988 Mazda RX-7 Convertible 5-Speed with 17,500 original miles

Up for sale is an incredibly clean and original triple black manual transmission 1988 Mazda RX-7 Convertible with 17,500 original miles.  See below for a complete description of the car.  I have a small collection of sports cars and I have exceeded my storage with a recent acquisition ('93 RX-7 with 11k miles) thus need to sell a car. 

Car History:

I purchased the car from the 2nd owner in August of 2013 out of Georgia.  It was previously in Virginia with the original owner since new.  It has always been stored in a garage under a car cover and with a battery tender.  The car has a clean car fax which verifies both the mileage and accident free history.  Included with the purchase are the original Owner's Manual, Accessories Guide, Warranty book, Mazda Sales Brochure, Original Window Sticker,  the original Purchase order, the like new convertible boot cover, and two keys.     

Vehicle Condition:

The car has zero rust and has always been a "sunny day" driver.  I have driven the car to Las Vegas twice in the last six months and the car performed perfectly.    

The body of the car is in great condition with no damage or signs or repair.  The original paint is in very good condition and only has a few small rock chips on the hood.  There are two places where touch up paint was used to repair very shallow scratches, one on each side of the car and are not visible in the pictures, but are in person.  That said, the original paint shines bright.

The 13B rotary engine is more than sufficient to propel the car and with the 5-speed manual transmission you can get the most out of the high revving rotary engine.  The engine has had required no work other than full synthetic oil & filter changes.  Same goes for the transmission with no non-maintenance repairs.  Both the engine and transmission are without issue and operate as the mileage would indicate. 

All vehicle electronics are fully operational including the A/C which works great and does NOT need a charge, as well as the factory radio/CD player including the headrest speakers.  I did replace the door speakers last fall, but everything else is stock and works great.  The power top and latching mechanisms work perfectly and the top easily converts to a targa should you desire a less than full convertible experience.  All glass is fee of cracks.  The only item not working correctly is the remote truck release which works infrequently. 

The "off black" original interior is in excellent condition with very little wear to the driver's side bolster.   All gauges work accurately as do the dash lights, clock, and even the annoying "shift up" light.   

The RX-7 sports Michelin MXV4 All season tires with about 2,500 miles on them.  They sit on the OEM BBS rims that in my opinion fit the car's design perfectly.  The wheels have no damage and look great. 

Maintenance:

Due to the low mileage and indoor storage, very little maintenance has been needed for this RX-7.  I had the car inspected prior to my purchase and only the battery was in need of servicing, everything else checked out fine.  I have receipts for the tires  as well as the most recent oil changes, but otherwise these is not much to tell.

Overall this is an excellent condition original FC convertible that is a lot of fun to drive and is ready to be driven anywhere.  The history is known and documented with original paperwork and a clean/clear Box A (original mileage) AZ title.  The car is located in Chandler Arizona which is a suburb of Phoenix.
