R1
2 oil coolers
suede seats
no hatch wiper
front lip chin spoiler
no cruise
base
looks the same as r1 but opposite of most of what i listed above
1 oil cooler, cloth seats, no front spoiler are the easiest giveaway

Aye thanks for the extra input asides from the other post I read after writing this. I was just wondering cause I recenely purchased an RX-7 and wasn't sure if it was an R1 or Base model since it came with awesome beautiful bucket seats and a fat wing on the back. So I guess I'm glad I ended up with a base model since I don't exactly favor squede...and I'm just wondering is that vid in your sig just a random video or you/someone you know? cause that is one bad *** looking drift.

Actually, it's cloth made to look like suede.

Unless it's still in factory trim, you'll find that most have been pretty much made to look or have what ever the owner wanted on them. Even from the dealer you could order a base and have the R-1 chinspoiler and wing installed. The packages just made it easier to select a group of items.

Yep. I've added cruise to my R1 (poor man's radar detector) and factory fog lights with upgraded bulbs as DRLs. Both were pretty much "plug and play".
The only thing I haven't heard of that often is adding the second oil cooler to a touring.
