mine was rock solid for 3 years, then the engine blew but compared to everyone else 3 years of not 1 problem is amazing

 

well, I was sayin that joe flo was seeming fickle



fd's are just touchy, especially in stock form, it seems.

 

its more like they dont being touched i think.

haha.....yeah. I really do think my car hates me. We didn't start out on the right foot. My girlfriend was jelousof the car so I had to park it for a few days. I went out of town for 2 weeks. And then realized that the car just wasn't me! So maybe it will find someone it does like. Anybody want a FD?

 

Stunned I am, how can you bring yourself to part with it? **** man all I did for the first 2 months was fix mine, but I never considered selling it.



You just cant buy anything that compares to an FD's performance and looks for the money.



As far as miles on the clock...who cares, just drive it and enjoy it. I was paranoid for a few months over my mileage too, but I realised I really, really, enjoyed driving it and driving it puts the miles on. Cant change that. I never bought it to sit in my garage, I bought it to drive (and show off).



Dude the manual thing is something you will learn to love. Autos are for Grandmas, ppl with 1 foot and fat bastards who eat McDonalds while driving.

 

I am not getting rid of the Rx-7!!!! It is a car I love. I am merely just trading it in for a little bit more abused one. Still gonna be driving an FD in the end!!

 

I dont really get why you would do that??? most ppl I know look to trade up cars not down. Why the hell do you want a more abused FD? I thought you wanted less problems not more.



**** man am I missing the point here or somethin?

 

Yeah I think everyone is. You see I found another FD for $6000 less then what I paid for the one I have now. It has almost 20,000 more miles but it comes in black which is a color I like. Plus it is an automatic which I guess is something I am going to need for the drving I do. And with the difference in price I am going to buy a warrenty which covers anything if it breaks down. That way I wont have to worry abou it! Alot less of a hassle in the end.

 

ah. I see. okz. nice.

 

Well I took the car out again a few minutes ago just to get some much needed attention. Got a couple of races in their but nothing worth talking about (v6 mustang and old 240sx). When I got home I figured I would try to fix my car and when I pop the hood I was lucky enough to see the hose sticking up. Seemed too easy to fix. I already Know I am going to miss this car even the stick! Its alot of fun drving manual but it seems I can only enjoy it when their isn't anybody out on the roads!
