The 1993 Mazda RX-7 Base mark the legendary debut of the third-generation, widely celebrated for its timeless design and highly focused sports car dynamics. Driven by a revolutionary sequential twin-turbocharged rotary engine, the base model omitted the heavier luxury amenities found on higher trims to offer the purest, most lightweight version of the car.

The Base trim was a minimalist platform. Unlike the Touring trim, it lacked a sunroof, fog lights, a rear window wiper, and the heavy Bose Acoustic Wave sound system. Unlike the track-focused R1 package, it did not feature dual oil coolers, stiffer Bilstein suspension, a front spoiler, or a rear wing. Standard features included cloth bucket seats, manual air conditioning, and 16-inch squeeze-cast aluminum alloy wheels.
This one owner car has been a part of the Duncan Imports collection since 2021.
