Mazda RX-7

The first generation was introduced in 1978 and stayed on the market until 1985. During that period, almost 500,000 RX-7s were made, most of them sold in America. Under the hood was a 1.1 to 1.3-liter Wankel rotary engine, the RX-7’s most notable feature. The highly compact and light engine produced 102 to 135 hp, which was more than enough for the lively performance of this little coupe.
