An RX-7 Series 1-2-3 trifecta will be up for grabs at this year’s Shannons Autumn Classic auction in Melbourne, with each example being in prime original condition.

The Australian-delivered RX-7s were born in 1980, ’81, and ’85, and will be selling with no reserve. All three have 1146cc twin-rotor engines and are 5-speed manuals.

The Series 1 is expected to draw the most cash from wallets, with Shannons providing a ‘guiding range’ of $22,000 – $26,000.

The Series 2 and 3 are expected to go for around $14,000 – $18,000 each.

Originality is the key for these three vehicles, as none have been modified as is often the case with early RX-7s.

“Because RX-7s have always had strong appeal to younger enthusiasts, they are often modified and can pass through many hands. This is the first time we have seen a collection like this come to auction,” he says.
