Produced from 1985 to 1992, the FC-generation Mazda RX-7 switched to a more refined, rounded design and independent rear suspension, moving away from the boxy first generation. Power came from a 13B rotary engine, offered in naturally aspirated or turbocharged form, with the Turbo II delivering around 200 horsepower and sharper handling praised by contemporary reviewers.

The Mazda RX-7 is a rear-wheel-drive sports car built across three generations from 1978 to 2002, celebrated for its lightweight construction and rotary Wankel engine. The final FD generation, powered by a twin-turbocharged 13B rotary, delivered thrilling power delivery, razor-sharp handling, and near-perfect weight balance thanks to its front-midship layout. Praised for agility rather than raw horsepower, the RX-7 became a favorite among enthusiasts and tuners, and a fixture in motorsport and pop culture. Its distinctive rotary soundtrack, curvaceous styling, and driver-focused engineering cemented its status as one of Japan's most iconic performance cars.
