they're both good, fast cars, the supra is a little heaveir, but as I understand, has a stronger engine. Also, I beilive the Supra tips the scale a little more than the 7, and I really, really like lightweight cars.



It's really up to you.

Well, if you can afford the Supra (25k and up on average) you could probably afford an FD as well, so get both.

Welll I had my choice before for almost the same price.

RX7 WHITE ----- TTSupra BLACK

33,000km 55,000

wheels stock wheel

no aero all the aero

stock motor stock motor

no real extras no more real extras



RX7 corners like its on rails. Supra sways

Rx7 handles like a sports car. Supra drives like a CADDY



Nuff said, untill I drove both I was set on the SUPRA, after the drive

I said RX7!!!



Take it for a drive and see how you like it STOCK! Aftermarket parts only

blur the actual car. Granted aftermarket parts can improve preformance

but I have seen several drag races stock and SUPER STREET and RX7

out does it.



Supras dont have that strong of an engine, its a TOYOTA though, its a

runner. Supra is very roomy, the RX7 has none.



Drive and play before you PAY!



WOW! that rimmed haha

yeah the rx-7 defintley will handle like the lighter car it is. the supra even looks like like a bg intimidating monster. no chance of hoping for the sleeper look with a supra. an fd without a major body kit and without a ricey rear spoiler ca always sneak up on some people

I don't get it...you posted this on Dec 4th....but it says in your info that you just bought a FD on the 3rd.



So how you going to make this decision when you already own the car?

You thinking of selling it for a supera?

of course with all that light weight comes a body and interior that as fragile as a cheap Christmas ornimant.



Dont get me wrong, I love the rx7 but its more of a hands on kinda car that like a high maint wonman, requires a lot of attention. You cant be scared of getting your hands dirty. Even if you can afford to have things modded and fixed you still better do it yourself if you want it done right.



Luckily there is a TON of online support for the RX7. You could build the entire car from online help.

then why don't you fix it first... drive and see how you like it... if you have doubt.. go and drive a supra then. if you want the supra then you can sell you fd for more now cause you fixed it already.
