It's what YOU think, that matters right ?? I'd say that
an rx3 would be cool, along with an rx7.

Old rotaries are bitchin. Great looks and simple to work on. They usually require a LOT of work to get in tip top shape. Look at my signature.. . . . .

The answer is obviously HELL YEAH get the RX-3's.

I would love to have an RX-3 or RX-2 along with my 1st Gen. I have to admit that if I had to choose between the 1st gen and an RX-3, I'd take the 3 in a heart beat.

I guess we would be seeing another 1st gen on jack-stands. You would definitely love the RX-3. its lighter than the 7 and other pre-RX-7 rotaries including a RX-2. My RX-3 pulls hard even with just a big streetport and 48 ida.
