An FD is a 3rd Gen. Rx-7 (1992-2002) as it stands in the VIN. They all begin with JM1FD

FD is a 3rd Gen RX7 like Srce said.A FC is a 2nd Gen RX7.Now that is what a FD is but FD can stand for many things,I in the other hand see it as the following or you can fill in the blank yourself.......



FD = ******* Disaster

FD = Found Dead



Your new.I hope you know about there reliabilaty problem.Welcome to the club newbie.

If he's about to freak out just trying to know what FD means. Hate to see what happens to him when it breaks down, or he breaks something.
