The 10AE year was 1988, and it comes with an S4 Turbo II engine.

sweet find, looks clean, but looks like a 10AE conversion, the 10th anni was only 88.

No.

If this is a real "H" VIN, then there is no way it's a real 10th Anniversary model.

Check my FC3S Turbo Registry.
There's info on LEGIT 10AE VIN ranges on the bottom.

OK, so, what your saying is, that there might be less/more 10th AE's than than the number Mazda says they produced?

Actually, you misread my question. I question why there is a RX-7 registry, not just a 10th AE registry.

Funny, ummm...no. We'll the registry is cool none the less.

But...

If some devious person, looking for RX-7 parts wanted to, they could take at least one RX-7 from that page.

I wont say who, but I had someone I know search a persons name, ON THAT LIST, and eventually, he came out with that persons home address, and his wife's cell phone number. He even found when/where they were married!!! And both of their emails.

I hope the guy that got searched, knows that someone with ill intent can search just his name, and take his car, or worse, all in 15 minutes. All because his name is on a registry.

I don't know about you guys, but thats one reason too many to stay off of any registry.

Edit: Not trying to knock you ted, but maybe you should reconsider the info you post on your site.
