2 questions =D

I had 2 questions about the 2nd. Gen.

1. Are there any type of tail light upgrade type of thing you can do with them? I'm not talking about like Altezzas or some stupid crap like that, I'm saying like is there any aftermarket lights that are tasteful for the RX-7.

2. What is the differences in body styling between the years of the car?

No tails lights aren't sold from aftermarket. THe body styles changes a BIT from 88 to 89 thats about it. The wings and sport package is the only other changes that could be apparent in different cars.

I dont know of any aftermarket tail lights and if there are any I doubt they would add to the cars appearance. The s4 (87-89) have square tail lights while the s5 (89-91) have the circle tail lights. I would say that more people prefer the circle tail lights but they require a little modification to make fit on a s4.
I believe the s5 had same color side moldings while the s4 had black side moldings. One more thing is different spoilers for different years and models.

majority of fcs are 2 seaters and some were 2+2. Im not sure how many people you could fit comfortably depending on your definition of comfortable.

Really depends on the size of the people. I've hauled 5 girls before, but don't expect to carry more then 1 guy.

Dude, do you need a life line here? If you have two seats I bet the answer is two. I would be willing to bet a 2+2 would hold 4. Call it a hunch.
