My Turbo II is a toy--it's not my daily driver. And if you're like me, $15k is too much to spend on a toy, so that pretty much rules out the FD. Find a nice Turbo II however, and it's playtime!

 

I absolutly LOVE the 3rd genertion Mazda Rx-7. But... when it comes to form and ultimate style... i will have to stick with the 2nd generation. i think there is nothing better than running a sick *** (80's) style sports car down to the local car show... and people just drop their jaw..



granted the 3rd gen gets that too. But there's just something about Old school, that i give in too



Come on now.. who doesnt love a good old AE86 now and than. can we say Drifter....



HEY! Rx-7's can drift too!!! "Yes little Devil, i know... We know"

 

Yes Hachirokus are nice.. I love old 80's cars.. Celicas, supras, Impulses.. Starions.. Yeah baby.. All rear wheel drive..





I want an FD too but I am young and insurance would be too expensive so I am probably going to get an FC first till I can pay for an FD cash.

 

Wires and dust huh. LoL, i love it. Yeah i mean who doesnt love an FD. But having my car for more than 2 years... i could never get rid of it. "She's gunna kill us"



My friend once said that as we spun on the highway after hitting a puddle of water at 90 mph



we spun in a strait line. it was the most exhilerating thing of my life..



Ahhh. I remember it well. "dude, almost 100"--Mike "yup"-Me "Holy ****!"--Mike "She's gunna kill us"--Mike





We came out of it Alive.. and till this day i will not own any other type of car.. but the Mazda Rx-7.

 

"She" Being the car.. of course.

 

I love them both. But like someone said above, a FD will cost you more and is a tad more complicated.. if this is going to be your only car, I say just stick with a FC.

 

There are alot of variables to consider when buying a car. Money, function and longevity being some of the biggest factors to consider. Money is self explanatory but as far as longevity you got to really see what you will be doing with the car say ... from the time you buy the car until say 3-5 years from that point. Since you've been looking for a RX7 I would assume the function of the car would be to drive "fast" and that requires money no matter what car you have. Styling depends on personal opinion but function depends on personal situation (Money). If money isn't the issue then the world is yours ... me personally I chose the TII because I love the styling, my budget only allows for a TII (Rather own then finance/lease), and I knew I would stick with the car for awhile.
