Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. 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 declined sharply in the UK market, falling 25% year-on-year to a median of £10,023, though this signal is weakened by minimal transaction data—only a single sale recorded over the past twelve months.

The illiquidity of this market segment presents a significant friction point for both buyers and sellers. With no active listings currently tracked and just one historical transaction, pricing discovery is difficult and any future sale may not occur at the median level shown.

The RX-7 FB remains classified as a collectible with a moderate score, but desirability is low in the current UK market. The average mileage on the tracked example—36,173 miles—suggests a well-preserved specimen, though the broader market does not appear rewarded preservation at present.

Base projections suggest continued pressure over the medium term, with values estimated to fall to £5,249 (down 47.6%) by year three and £4,324 (down 56.9%) by year five. These forecasts reflect weak current momentum and limited collector interest, though they carry low confidence given the sparse transaction sample.

The combination of depreciating status, illiquidity, and negative year-on-year movement presents a challenging backdrop for ownership. Any purchase decision should assume holding costs and patience; exit timing will be constrained by the scarcity of buyers.
