Hello all! My wife and I just bought a 1984 RX-7 with the 12A. Nether of us has ever driven a 7, and wanted to see if you all could compare it to another car as far as performance. Its going to be a few weeks before we can drive the car (it sat for 2 years) and I'm getting anxious! I'm most curious about the handeling. I've owned a IROC Z, '94, '96, '99 Vette, ZQ8 Sonoma, Mustang GT, Honda CRX, and have driven a few other "sport cars".

Will it compare to any of the above as far as handling?

Looking foward to burn some 7 rubber,
Ben

 

It looks like you finnally chose the right sports car!

 

lol.. Well I have seen the import light!!

It was hard for me to give up my C5 though.... Oh well..

its like an iroc and a crx.. rear wheel drive yet small and lite...i love the way my 12a drives and turns

 

Its like a Vette, just without those 8 annoying pistons in the way of fun. Imagine if your CRX was Rear Wheel Drive....and it should be pretty close.

 

yea its light and zippy around corners, but sucks in a straight line, well stock that is. Its quite sweet, you'll love it.

 

About as much power as the CRX, and gas mileage of the vette
