Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Prices are adjusted to the model's median mileage before comparing. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.

Marque analyst note

The Mazda RX-7 FB has contracted sharply in the Australian market, with the median selling price now at AUD $20,350—a 25 percent decline over the past 12 months. The sell signal reflects sustained downward pressure on valuations for this generation, though the low sample size of three transactions warrants caution in drawing broad conclusions.

Liquidity remains thin, with only three recorded sales tracked over the full year and no active listings currently available. This scarcity of transaction data limits visibility into market depth and makes price discovery uneven for both buyers and sellers in this segment.

The FB generation holds collectible status with a moderate desirability profile, driven principally by its rotary-engine heritage and period significance within the RX-7 lineage. Without production-volume data or original-list pricing available, assessment of rarity and appreciation potential relative to newer RX-7 generations is limited.

Base-case projections suggest further deterioration ahead, with the median expected to fall to approximately AUD $10,657 by 2027—a 47.6 percent decline from current levels—and to AUD $8,779 by 2029, representing a 56.9 percent loss over five years. These forecasts are grounded in the current trajectory and thin-market conditions but carry low confidence given the sparse transaction history.

The combination of diminishing valuations, thin liquidity, and unfavorable medium-term projections presents a cautious outlook for FB ownership. Prospective buyers should approach with restraint until clearer market stabilization emerges; current holders may face timing pressure as base-case depreciation accelerates.
