Mazda introduced a convertible version of the RX-7 in 1988 with a naturally aspirated engine � introduced to the US market with ads featuring actor James Garner, at the time featured in many Mazda television advertisements. The convertible featured a removable rigid section over the passengers and a folding textile rear section with heatable rear glass window. Power operated, lowering the top required unlatching two header catches, power lowering the top, exiting the car (or reaching over to the right side latch), and folding down the rigid section manually. Mazda introduced with the convertible the first integral windblocker, a rigid panel that folded up from behind the passenger seats to block unwanted drafts from reaching the passengers � thereby extending the driving season for the car in open mode. The convertible also featured optional headrest mounted audio speakers and a folding leather snap-fastenedtonneau cover. The convertible assembly was precisely engineered and manufactured and dropped into the ready body assembly as a complete unit � a first in convertible production. Handling was much improved, with less of theoversteertendencies of the FB. The rear end design was vastly improved from the FB's live rear axle to a more modern, Independent Rear Suspension (rear axle). Steering was more precise, withrack and pinionsteeringreplacing the oldrecirculating ballsteering of the FB.Disc brakes also became standard, with some models (S4: Sport, GXL, GTU, Turbo II, Convertible; S5: GXL, GTUs, Turbo, Convertible) offering four-piston front brakes. The rear seats were optional in some models of the FC RX-7 but are not commonly found in the American Market. Mazda also introduced Dynamic Tracking Suspension System (DTSS) in the 2nd generation RX-7. The revised independent rear suspension incorporated special toe control hubs which were capable of introducing a limited degree of passive rear steering under cornering loads. The DTSS worked by allowing a slight amount of toe-out under normal driving conditions but induced slight toe-in under heavier cornering loads at around 0.5 Gs or more; toe-out in the rear allows for a more responsive rotation of the rear, but toe-in allowed for a more stable rear under heavier cornering. Mazda also introduced Auto Adjusting Suspension (AAS) in the 2nd generation RX-7. The system changed damping characteristics according to the road and driving conditions. The system compensated for camber changes and provided anti-dive and anti-squat effects. Competition to this RX-7 droptop in 1989 included BMW's 325i Cabriolet, Buick's Reatta, Cadillac's Allant�, Chevrolet's Camaro and Corvette convertibles, Chrysler's LeBaron Convertible, Ford's Mustang Convertible, Jaguar's XJ-S Convertible, Mazda's own RX-5, Mercedes-Benz's 300 SL Convertible, Nissan's 300ZX Convertible and Pontiac's Firebird Convertible.
