Mazda RX-7

The RX-7 is the best car Mazda has to offer. It has been in production since the late eighties but only the two latest models, the FC3S and FD3S, are the ones you occasionally might spot on the road. The FC model is actually already getting pretty rare these days.

Beneath the bonnet lies the famous rotary engine. It's a revvy engine with great response and gives an awesome sound. The downside is that it can be quite thirsty. The light-weight rotary engine is placed right behind the front axle resulting in great overall balance. The RX-7 is probably the best choice in Mazda drift cars.
In Japan there are plenty of parts available, but in other parts of the world it’s not always easy to find 2nd hand parts. So be sure to have a part supplier in case you need repairs. Aftermarket support is plentiful, finding a company to tune your RX-7 is probably a bigger worry.
