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 is trading at a median of £10,023 in the UK market, down 25 percent year-on-year, with a sell signal reflecting sustained downward pressure on valuations across the tracked period.

The illiquid nature of this segment is evident: only one transaction has been recorded over the past twelve months, and there are currently no active listings in the market. This scarcity of sales data means pricing signals carry low confidence and buyers should expect difficulty locating stock.

The RX-7 FB carries a collectible classification with a score of 6, though desirability remains low in the current market. Without production-volume data, the relative rarity of surviving examples cannot be quantified, but the combination of sparse transactions and weak pricing suggests collector interest has not materialized sufficiently to support valuations.

Transacted examples average 36,173 miles, indicating typical road use rather than preservation, which may reflect the broader collector indifference affecting the model in the UK right now.

The three-year projection points to a base value of £5,249, a further 47.6 percent decline from current levels, with five-year estimates falling to £4,324 (down 56.9 percent). These declines suggest the depreciation cycle for this generation remains active and has not yet stabilized. Prospective buyers entering at current prices should prepare for continued erosion unless market sentiment shifts materially.
