While the badges were added by a previous owner are a nod to the JDM RX-7, the Savanna was produced exclusively for the Japanese market, the name intending to evoke the power of the first nuclear-powered ship in the world. Stunningly retro and lightly modified, this Mazda is a time capsule of the eighties. With a fastback roof line and glass hatch, and a sunroof, this sleek and lightweight sports car is powered with a 12A Wankel rotary engine.

Painted in a Renaissance Red Metallic (Color Code N7938) and black two-tone, this Mazda certainly has a theme going — and that theme is “red.”

The interior seats are upholstered in red, and the floor is carpeted red, door panels are red, with additional carpeted floor mats in the footwells – also red. The red and brown vinyl door cards are partially carpeted, with pockets for additional storage. A cubby sits between the two front seats, doubling as an armrest, and there’s storage cubbies behind the seats. The modernized radio includes 2 USB ports, an auxiliary plug-in, and an AM/FM Radio as well as the original 12v power outlet and the ash tray. One of the more specific upgrades bestowed by a previous owner is the CS-XE Mirage air freshener, nestled on the dashboard, another nod to JDM custom culture.

The sky-high 8,000rpm tachometer is flanked with temperature, fuel, and oil gauges. The analog clock hides unobtrusively under the radio, while the power window and pop-up headlamp controls are nestled in the center console. Overhead, a console houses the dome light switches. Overall, the interior is original and well kept, a great survivor example.

Car Cave’s shop team went through this Mazda and performed general maintenance, including recharging the AC system, replacing windshield wiper blades, and flushing the transmission and differential fluid. For our full service records, give us a call at (803) 262 4742.

The conveniences of moderniish amenities, coupled with the innovation and style of the eighties, this RX-7 is not a vehicle to miss out on.
