hmm im only 18, my rx is my 8th car ( i have two or three at a time),i do (usually) work, just not at this time (school n all)i payed for my seven in cash, as well as all mods (stocks rule eventhough the market sucks) i do NOT deal drugs, i just like to see what people can do if i put 13k on the table.. i do not add a .5 to my age because i have been driving forever, and i dont care how people view me by my age (eventhough i look 16) there are a lot of seven owners around my age and area as well (18-20) some love sevens for who they are, other just have one because its the "cool" thing to do (not naming names).
dont knock a kid for being 16(.5) and WANTING a seven, i researched for 4 months before i settled on a seven, after i bought it i began to understand what all the things i have read means. but hey, think of it this way, young people love to crash and usually dfo not own more than one car at a time (rain driving seven?) if one does happen to fall due to their love of non moving objects, eventually that will drive the prices of "clean" sevens up.... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif |
also i agree with joe on how hard it i to drive a seven... you can make it move, but making it move with boost can be difficult at times. id go with the mustang as well, hell the cobras are, umm, "quick"... wait, i have stangs...
for your first car N/A is a simplier option, if youve been driving on a couple months under manual trans, DO NOT BUY A SEVEN. ive had about 4 years (always owning atleast one manual car at any given time) and the seven still owns me... (we have farmland down south, thats why ive had more years behind the wheel than most 18yr olds....) |

here is the spec sheet on my car

I've owned a couple rotaries before this car though. I would advise owning a SIMPLER rotary powered car to get a grip on how it all works. Oh, and the 7 is one of the EASIEST cars to drive, you kids must not have any skill? Thats one of the beautys of that car, its so easy to drive and confidence inspiring... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png |
hmm... thanks pete..... this is my first turbo manual car. so it took a bit getting used to. i would usually drive my friends wrx around, it wasnt close to stock, but it was easy as hell to drive fast. 6k launches n all are very confidence building! as for my lack of skill with my fd, i think its my tires, my car feels really slow....
