yea, there is a difference...

While the 93s are more abundant and cheaper, the 94s have dual airbags, more of a light tan color leather interior vs a darker chocolate (too much brown for my taste) The 93s also have a problem with the plastic peeling on the center console and they changed texture for the 94s to solve that problem.

93 they had the R1 model, 94 went to the R2 with a less stiff, more tolerable suspension.

no real major changes, just nit-picky stuff really.

Just my .02$.. I'm bored.


I'm Still 22...

24 and got both of my rx-7s simultaneously. I had a '98 mit montero sport that I sold to my sister. As part of the deal she gave me her '87 NA that didn't run and I bought an '82 GS (my baby) from my dad. That was about 1.5 years ago. Now i spend my extra cash on nothing but mods. I think this rotory stuff is worse than heroine (pure speculation).

I am 32, and on my second 79. I love these cars. Fast, easy to work on, fairly inexpensive, and handle like a go cart.

Take it easy, Chuck. I'm 38. This is Mario III outta Arlington, TX. I've chewed up two '79s and currently have my favorite daily driver Rex- a 1980 with a 1982 front clip and a '79 12A streetport done by Ari at RP in Garland. Remember--old is in the mind, grasshopper...

I am 27 and working on the car that I was given for graduation when I was 18 and had taken away before I was 19. I can't wait to see if I am grown up yet when I really get it working the way it used to.

I must be out of touch, 67 next month. I average 30,000 miles a year in cars and I hate to think how much in planes

Most of my work is in the outback, where I drive a range of 4wd. I use a Ford for towing a boat, an R34 to impress, and a V12 Daimler for black tie events.

My RX7 is still my fovourite, it was bought as a Sunday afternoon picnic car. Now I drive it to work every two weeks buts thats between 500- 900 miles one way!|
