FC headed my way!
I wanted to share my joy by informing my fellow rotor-heads about my first Fc.
I'm purchasing this babe at exactly 5Pm tomorrow. Did I mention how freakin' excited I am? Cuase I am!! :-D
A few specifications
It's N/A. Why? Cuase it's got 105,000miles!
It's an 86.
It's red. ....not for long...
5-Speed (I'd have it no other way)
It's drives very nice!
Shocks are great!
Clean title!
No rust! (except twi dime sized ones on top of sunroof (read below)
Electric sunroof! Come ON! How cool is THAT? Huh...HUH!?
Free Headunit!
4 New tires...(god i'm loving this...)
All for 1300 BUCKS! And no I won't tell you where it is...or you guys'd but that thing before dawn would break. Backstabbing Rx7 folk :p
Man...so excited...I just had to let you guys know. Ok...i'm good now

History? Well, I ran a carfax and it came out clean, does that count? I mean...it's got 105k miles...he gives it oil changes every 3k miles...gave it a full 60k tuneup 5k miles ago...car drives strong uphill. I deliberatly drove the car uphill for a good 15-20 min to check the temp gauge. It was cool! It stayed only 1/4 way up the whole time. Drove back down...it was fine. The shifting linkage does need to be replaced...but it drove strong. No stuttering whatsoever...the idle was rock solid at 700-750rpms...hmm, what else.
Oh, I made sure to ''test'' the power so I went through 2nd gear up to about 6.5-7rpms and a ''shift up'' light came on. Which was really cool...but it didn't stutter or chug or anything. The only quirks were the body, with quite a bit of oxidation..but...i didn't mind too much, honestly. What do you think?

The owner said he doesn't know about any engine maintenance as far as rebuilds. Conclusivley he did say that the owner before him was a poor college student that bought it for a daily driver and as soon as he graduated, he sold it to this guy (another poor college student) with the same intentions and myself. I hope this cycle doesn't affect me, lol.
