So I was at a local car show last Saturday in Millersville, there were I don't know around 100-150 cars, and guess how many RX-7s???



1..... A single solitary FD, wasn't anything crazy, just mildly modded. But still I mean there were tons of MKIV Supras, and other crazies... Even a Mitsu GTO (3000GT, but it had everything converted to JDM spec, even the badges and valve cover.) I'm just saying that one of the best things about owning an RX-7 is not having to see yourself on the road every 5 minutes.

Indeed. I see FC's and FB's but never a FD. And all the FC's and FB's I see are driven by older people who care about getting from point A to point B.



I have seen ONE TII and one 91 N/A that was modified quite well in my standards.

You all would be disappointed if you came to Florida then... lol.



Don't get me wrong, they're not Honda Civics. But they are more prevelant down here than most areas.

I agree they are rare. You definately have to know people with RX7's to know several of them really do exists. I Rarely see RX7 like you see Honda's/Acura's on the street, moreover a modified RX7.
