My awesome 1988 RX-7 Turbo

This is my beautiful 1988 RX-7 Turbo. I've owned it for 10 years. This is the original paint! I did replace the engine about 5 years ago (total cost 5K) with a rebuilt one. It currently has about 49K miles on the new engine and everything is working great. No other major changes other than using K^N air and oil filters.
I use a superb vehicle maintenance program called Automotive Wolf car care software to manage the maintenance schedule. It automatically creates a very comprehensive car maintenance log and even tracks parts and gas mileage. If I ever decide to sell it I can show how well its been taken care of and prove it... but I have no plans to sell it unless maybe a 3rd gen comes around This car still puts a smile on my face every time i drive it!

What an amazing example!!! These cars are simply breathtaking in their stock form. Yours is truly an exceptional example!! Do you know any of the car's history before you bought the car? Would definitely love to see more pictures of this beauty!
