The new toy, 83 RX-7 GSL! New pics Page 2! February 24, 2008, 11:36:50 AM Well, I finally broke down and bought another toy car. I took my own advice and went after the car I missed the most (my 86 RX-7), so I bought this little guy, a 1983 Mazda RX-7 GSL. 12A rotary, 5-Speed manual, rear disc brakes, posi, manual steering, glass and metal removable roofs, runs really nice! Got it for cheap with a partial trade on some of my 5.0 stuff Yes, I know it's Red on Red. That interior will be changed to black... Quote Selected

My brother looked at quite a few RX7s back in the day, none were very decent (the ones he could afford anywa) and finally settled on a 280zx (sadly not a turbo, not even a 5 speed). Should be a fun autocross/track day car though. I'm not up on my Mazda's, but does that thing have 13" wheels? Quote Selected
