2002 Mazda RX-7 FD3S RS 43,462kms Series 8 Genuine Low KM Import
A true modern classic and one of the most iconic JDM performance cars ever built. This genuine Series 8 RX-7 RS presents in excellent condition with extremely low kilometres and retains its clean, factory appearance a rare opportunity to secure one of the more desirable and harder-to-find FD variants.
The RS model was a notable step up over the standard Series 8 RX-7, sitting just below the ultra-rare Spirit R in the FD hierarchy. Developed as a more focused performance variant, the RS featured factory upgrades including increased power output, revised suspension tuning, larger brakes, reduced weight and upgraded wheels, making it one of the most sought-after nonSpirit R FD models produced.
