Both the theft and the replacement are a real shame. Good luck on the MX-3 forum..... There is an MX-3 forum, right?

You must live in a rough part of the neighborhood, orrrr someone has a huge grudge against you if they stole your old car and already slashed your new ones tires.

I would recommend a change of location.

No grudge.. BAD neighborhood.. change of location.. expected.. lol!! and for all the other ******** who are saying >And im summing it up< "Get the hell off our forums"
you guys must have a grudge with me... AND! the hole "surrender ur login" better tell that to ANYONE who doesn't have a RX-7.. which is a lot.. and if anyone said anything joking sorry.. bad month.. and no the mx-3 is actually not a bad car.. if u have had one and still tell me it sucks ok.. but if you have not owned one then shut up...... and in this economy 500 dollars for a really nice running fuel efficient car thats interior is in excallant shape and outer body is fine...is NOT a bad deal...

Wow you guys are very supportive and understanding of a forum member who has just lost his 7. Anyway, I have both, a lightly modded 79sa, and a 92 base model mx-3 as a daily driver. My seven is much more fun to drive, but I love my mx-3 as a daily. It's a pretty sporty drive, much better than most new econo cars. Oh and forget the kl-ze, I would rather get a bpt engine.

^ But it looks like a Hyundai. That's all we're getting at.

We are just messing with you. Keep your account open, of course. The rotary bug has bitten and it's only a matter of time before you have a new 7 to show us. Just make it quick.

I bought an MX-3 to get around in while my 7 was down. I think it's good looking, has nice fuel economy, and very comfortable seats. Only problem I had was that it was hard to see out the back, rear is too high and the B-pillars are too wide.

i will agree with you on that.. i have had a Honda CRX and it was almost the same problem.. and yes the car is VERY clean and sporty.. just funny to kick all these ricers asses in my town.. i like it.. will i got another 7? Hmm.... yes.. definitely yes... but sorry to tell you all that when i do, i will not be in the 1st gen section anymore.. jumping straight to 3rd.. lol..

sorry to hear about the loss of your 7. imo, it should have been parted out and would live on in other 7's. at least you are happy with your new Mazda. i don't know if i'd go straight to an FD but thats just me. its always nice to have a rock sold reliable SA or FB in the stable.

Congrats on your purchase of your "new to you" Mazda Civic Sportback


My daily driver is a Saturn while my 7 rests waiting for the next rip.

I think that for 500 bucks, that's not bad for a DD.

I personally think its a bit of a downgrade. But, I've often had ideas of trying to tune up a MX-3 or CRX to be bad ***.
