For Sale: 1988 Mazda RX-7 in O'Fallon, Illinois

Gateway Classic Cars is poised to produce this 1988 Mazda RX7 GLU for sale in the Milwaukee Showroom. While there have been many marvels in engineering among the modern automobile, none have been quite as unique as the Wankel engine, also known as the rotary motor. Beginning in the late 1800's the rotary engine had applications in things as small as bicycles and evolution found the in motorcycles in the earyly 1900's but it wasn't until the year 1929 that a German engineer by the name of Felix Wankel developed a version of the rotary engine that incorporated an eccentric rotary design. This utilized an eccentric shaft that made a constant movement of a triangular shaped rotor being propelled in the off space between the rotor and the housing through the principle of combustion. Mazda undertook the concept when they took up a study contract on the Wankel in 1961 for automotive applications from the practical all the way up to racing due to its extremely high revving capabilities associated with the design of the engine. The fist RX7 was made the year 1978 and a cult following of one of the greatest Japanese vehicles was born. This RX7 packs a 1.3 liter N/A rotary under the hood which screams to high RPMs like no regular combustion motor can. The unique piece of engineering is bolted to a 5-speed transmission which offers the true feel of what it means to drive a pinnacle of performance JDM history. This RX7 comes as a GLU which means that all the trim and options that the turbocharged model came with including a limited slip differential, this car has...just minus the turbo. The RX7 is equipped with air conditioning, AM/FM radio with Cassette, power brakes, power steering, and a power sunroof to let a summers breeze in. Don't pass up your chance to own a gorgeous and clean RX7 that has not been butchered!
