The second-generation RX-7 was launched in 1986, following an amazingly successful run of the first-generation cars. Between 1979 and 1985, over 415,000 RX-7s found owners, a staggering figure considering the car"s unique rotary engine. For the second generation, Mazda focused on the Porsche 944 as inspiration, which is immediately evident when you see the cars side-by-side. America was the target audience for the FC, since the lion"s share of first-generation cars were sold here. And because the 944 proved so popular here, Mazda set out to use the Porsche as a template for what the more mature American was looking for in a sporting automobile. Aside from the obvious design changes, the FC RX-7 was a completely new automobile. Rack and pinion steering replaced the original car"s recirculating ball setup, four-wheel disc brakes (with four-piston front calipers on most trim levels) became standard, and a completely revised rear suspension system included a limited degree of passive rear steering during cornering. The convertible came along two years after the successful launch of the hatchback coupe. Remember that this was a period in which the convertible was making a resurgence. You could buy sporty convertibles from almost every manufacturer that offered a competitive car. The difference, though, was that Mazda engineers seemed to be thinking about a convertible during the design phase, rather than shipping coupes to an aftermarket supplier to hack the roofs off and try to make soft tops fit. The RX-7 Convertible was conceived and built in-house, and therefore the quality of the materials used, and the fit 20 years later, are light years ahead of some of Mazda"s competition. The design itself was forward-thinking. Mazda engineers wanted a removable top, but weren"t going to accept just a removable glass sunroof or Targa/T-tops, as were used in the primary competition from Toyota and Nissan. It had to be a convertible. But a leaky, noisy top was unacceptable, too. The answer was a sort of hybrid top that combined the best attributes of a hard roof (lower noise level, water-tight construction) with those of a convertible (open air driving). The construction of the roof was such that the entire top assembly was simply dropped into place in a single unit on the assembly line.
