Red face Viper RX-7????

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...tem=1749137721



It is obviously a first gen RX-7 made to look Viperish with a Miata lights.

If those engine stats are correct this thing would be a lot faster than a viper.

Quite odd.

That body kit on that thing is great, probably all metal right?! Take off those frikkin viper lights off the front and grill and not too mention those crappy-assed rears from a corvette and you got yourself a pretty sweet ride. That hood scoop can stay though

Could use a touring wing instead and it could lose the boinger.

Looks like one of those "off brand" matchbox cars they sell in blister packs in the grocery check out line.

RXcetera, can you give me some details about your poke at RX-7 Heaven? I'm in Ottawa, and a new rex owner.

Thanks

pm is fine if you don't want to slag them in a public forum!

I have slagged them in public more than once... an eye for an eye . Try going to the Canadian forum and doing a search for "RX-7 Heaven", "Doug" or "Alabama Hot Wrench" LOL!!

I cannot agree with you more - it looks like a viper more than anything. This vehicle should be condemned.
