Arrow The Pearly White RX7 Unicorn

Just looking at the production sheet numbers. I'm curious as to who owns the only Pearly White RX7 ever brought to the US? Would anyone happen to know this? Any pictures of this Unicorn? Has anyone yet to spot it?

im pretty sure its one of mazda's collections. I wonder what kind of miles it has on it. I wonder what that thing would be worth to a serious collector.

It's sitting in the lobby of Mazda US Headquarters, or was a few years ago anyway.

If you're into VIN collecting, then sure.. Great car to own. Personally? It's JUST a paint code. All the cars are the same. Same with CYM.

I sold the WRX years ago. I just added two RX7s to my collection. '93 Silver and a '95 Black.

On the WRX I had the TurboXS ecu, it was making about 350hp on the dyno.

If it was up for sale, it would have already been purchased by now.

Is there a way to get the VIN, if so, I can do a VIN search for the last known title holder with address (if title was issued).

Its only when you put 'irresponsible' in front of '17 year old' that you have a problem

My 93 FD touring was bought from the Regional Mazda HQ in early Dec of 92. It had a magnetic sign on the doors which said: "Mayor Bob Lanier" and the car was used as the Grand Marshall car for the 92 Thanksgiving Day Parade in Houston.

Regardless, it's VR paint still is chipping, along with the black interior plastic paint, and at only 51K miles I've brought it out of driveway nothingness.

Anyway, I think that even with my early purchase of this car from Mazda, my VIN ends with 070 or something like that????

Not all true, Dougie_fresh_007 can rip apart a motor. ( and put it back together) And he is only 17 or was at the time i talked to him last.

With the whole 17 thing, does it count if you are 16, cuz i was 16 when i got mine. Now i am 19 so dont flame, I am gettin there.
