wow that is fugly... on the upside, it looks like it wouldn't take TOO much to make it look like an RX-7 again... that front end is ridiculously long... but it may just need new hood, fenders, and bumper skin.... (hopefully)

That is SOOOOOOOO ugly though... who the hell would even dream up that beast (seems like more of a nightmare to me...)

geez... if I ever think of defacing an FC, or any RX7, like that someone shoot me please! How much did they want for that poor thing?

:edit:

sorry, just found the other thread. I would look for a different (read: normal) one for $3000.

I thought the pics before were sickening.......We should find the individual responsible for this. And see to it they can do no more harm to 7's.

This is some real funny ****!!!! Its kinda like looking at a woman from the back and you say damn shes fine.... Of course tell she turns around... then you see she has the face of a british bulldog.... lol you know some things you don't expect. This is one of them... If you buy that car we can all now refer to it as "the body of a goddess, face from hell"

lol reading your guys' resposnes crack me up... man to think i wanted to buy it (because i really want a 2gen) i was just thinking of either putting it back to normal (how it should be) or put a body kit on it. But to undo all the work that was done would be a handful ive been told. I must hand it to whoever did it they did a good job fitting it on there but why that front end...**** who knows. When i went to see it the sales man came out and i got my way to the front of the car and i said "what the hell is this?" and he started crackin up. Oh well. Keep it comin i like hearin what you guys gotta say.

dont buy it if you plan to undo whats been done to it. not only will it be a lot of work to undo, but someone went to a lot of work to do it in the first place. personally i think it's hideous, but i'm sure someone out there could appreciate it. it might even be some persons dream car. i'm sure you could get a real RX-7 for the same price

Holy ****, I learned to drive in a 49 Morris Minor. It had a spur gear tranny (no syncros). Now that will teach you how to downshift. You can see the styling queues in the new Mini Coopers..

Oh man, that's hilarious.
I am all for one-offs, but that is just ugly. The guy did a great job though, it's totally creative and definately one-of-a-kind.
He probably just did it to see if he could.

I like frankensteining things, I've got a 19 foot Bayliner, nice boat, comfortable, but the volvo 4 banger just isn't enough... I'm thinking about enlargening the engine compartment a bit, reinforcing it, and shoving the absolute biggest engine I can fit in it. Probably a done up 350, or even a 427... I want the worlds only 70 mph bayliner cuddy!!

I can understand a headlight kit to rid yourself of the popups but this is rediculous.

dont buy it if you plan to undo whats been done to it. not only will it be a lot of work to undo, but someone went to a lot of work to do it in the first place.
Are you on the rock?? If anyone does buy it its mandatory that they fix that poor car. I don't care if it took the idiot that did this all 15 years of the car's life to disfigure it like that the buyer can FIX her in a day or so.

I"m at work now and needed a good laugh. I just can't imagine anyone going through all the trouble to come up with something like this. They surely must be proud of their work...They did a great job.
Last wekend I saw a Miata with '59 Cadillac fins. This was another unbelievable creation. Too bad I did't have a camera to take a picture.
