The aluminium special, produced by Mazda in 2003 for the motor show and auto salon, is a prized posession. Where did it go? What happened to it? Who knows? It is potentially the last special Fd3s produced in the Mazda factory.
The Exterior panels including front and rear fenders, doors and bonnet were all produced in aluminum, which when added to the base, lightened the RX-7. Armed with the B-Spec aero parts and the engine from the latest up-to-date Spirit R makes this Fd3s a one of a kind special.
Lead in photos were of a bare skin FD, but the car was painted and vinyl added for the show.
The front fenders are actually 25mm wider each side to accomodate the larget rims and the weight was reduced considerably.
Check out the Auto Salon Jan 2003 Part 1 for show pics.
