Finally got my FC

Finally got myself one. Have to say, even tho it is my personal first vehicle with little comparision in driving other vehicles. Rx-7's kick ***. Went on a good road trip with my dad and got an 87 gx, canuck version. Some of the nice things with this one; (while it may not be good) but the car was lady driven for the first ~160,000 kilometers, and the other guy had it for 45ish. The engine is, newer, its is a 2001 13b with only 45k on it. The guy had put 18 * 8 konig rims on it. And the red paint job is touched up but may need to be redone. Anyways i thought i would throw this out as a first post sort of to introduce myself to the forums, i have been reading it for around 3 months now.

Welcome to the forum, and congrats on your FC purchase. Theres a huge amount of information to be had here, especially in the Archives and FAQ.

You'll soon become addicted to this RX-7 thing.
