Damn, I love those FD RX-7s
Aww man... when I came out of the grocery store today, parked next to my 02 wrb wrx was a beautiful white 93-95 rx-7. That is the car I was also considering when I got the wrx. Damn those rx7s are gorgeous cars. I enjoy driving the wrx, but I cant help but thinking I would prefer a FD rx7.
Anyone have one I can drive? You can play around in my wrx. Though, if you are on this board you probably already have a wrx. Oh well…

Yeah, I'm sure everyone loves RX-7s
. Expensive to maintain though, with how weak the engine is, but still one awesome car.

I too love those cars. Perferct size, nice and small like a sports car should be. I was driving behind one on Ygnacia Valley in WC the other night. Thing was so damn beautiful it brought teers to my eyes. Or, maybe that was just his exhaust fumes... gotta love a car running catless!

Only good buy is the Miata, and not many guys, aside from real motosport fans (auto-x, road/track racers) would be caught driving those.

I agree that with the proper care, they can last for quite a while, but one would think that for an engine not to blow between 50-100k miles while using it as a daily driver.
