I don't believe it. I just recieved my Victoria British catlogue yesterday.

IT HAS A 2ND GEN ON THE FRONT COVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With aftermarket wheels.






Hell, if I had known they were going to do that, I would have taken mine down to them, they're only an hour away, and mine looks better.

 

Whew! At first I thought you had lost all your marbles and were considering a V8 swap or something.

 

But, VB has almost ALWAYS had a first gen (the two I have do anyway!)

 

Lol, that's funny. I was surprised too, when I got mine the day before yesterday.

Shh...don't tell anyone, but those 2nd gens are dog-ugly.

 

I agree, Hammy. They have no distictive lines. And remember, I'm a professional artist.
However, I'm glad somebody carries a full line of 1st gen nit picky parts.

 

Sorrry to dash the second gen bash guys, but I was thinking my 2nd gen would look better than the one on the cover.

I talkled to Tom at VB last summer, really nice kid, doesn't work there anymore, and he said they were looking for a 1st gen for the fall cover. I didn't have one done and didn't volunteer my 2nd. I never thought they would put any other gen on the cover. My guess is, since they are expanding their product line, we may even see a 3rd gen, someday.

 

TOTALLY

 

a Gen III has been on the catalog cover before

 

I just got the VB catalog today and that was my first thought. Those second
generatyions are UGLY!

.....and to think one will have to look at it every day until the next catalog!

The tenth anniversary ones aren't as bad as the base models and 2nd gens with body kits look better.

 

Look like a stripped down plain model ford Probe.

 

The 2nd gen looks to me a bit like a Porsche 944, also nondescript in the sports car world. Get a 911 already.

 

The 2nd gen 'vert cracks me up, it looks like a Chrysler LeBaron. Guess that makes it a sleeper =p.

even though i was 10, i wasn't paying attention when the 2nd gen came out.

that must have been depressing for alot of people. i mean the day finally comes, after 7 years, a new RX-7!!!! ..............and out rolls this big fat lump of crap damn

actually, i don't mind the turbo 2nd gen's, and i think they can look really nice done up with the proper body kit, i even used to drive a TII, but nothing ever comared to my 1st gen's

that 2nd gen doesn't look that bad...the rims are whats killing it though...put a nice set on them or even the stock one and it'd look better...IMO
