LOL Ignore my post, since you have an Rx7 already.



I just mean that when people get brand new "Regular sedan" cars, and post em on a sports car forum, I just think of how its probably in the range of $12-18k new and that could be spent on a Nice Rx7, although it'd be 11 years old and have miles :P

A Scion? really? It looks like a Chevy Astro with a fat lip, but if you like it, right on!

i love the car itself and it fits my personality but the forum.... oh god the forum. so unhelpfull its worse than the theoretical offspring of rx7club and hondaforums with a pinch of wannabe smart spice.



so hard to find valid threads while weeding through countless coilover/air intake threads.

but most of the people finance the new car...like myself, I bought a 04 focus for 12k...i finance its with 500 down and a low interest rate because its a new car. you also have to think about insurance...some people can't afford the impractability of a 7 with the high costs in insruance aswell...i also realize you can finance a fd, but interest rates will be higher because of the age not to mention the insurance rates. I pay 270 on my focus ...can't image what a fd would be

I too am starting to like those the more I see them, though I wouldn't like them if they weren't so inexpensive.



One thing I've wondered though, how do you pronounce "scion?"

I like them a lot. They are so ugly they are cute.



There was a tricked out one at the Falken drift event last weekend. It had a reverse cowl hood and all.



Good luck with it. I like it a lot.
