thanks for the positive feedback fellas!

this is my first rx-7 and after i evaluated the car for over a month. i couldnt take it anymore and i bought it.

Were you experimenting with different positions for the carts? They seemed to move around in a couple pics

But on a more serious note, looks good!

How many on the dial? I'd guesstimate around 60k?

Congrats on your white '91! Mine looked like that when I got it 2 years ago. Unfortunately it does not anymore (defective white paint). Take care of it!

Nice car.
I use Meguairs too, it looks good. Remember to wax the tailights, it gives them extra shine.

Unhappy

Slick car, looks like a 10AE. I wish my car was that nice... little rust spots, missing interior pieces and ripped seats plague my RX! Awesome FC!

Oh yeah, is that the stock s5 front bumper? My (s4) doesn't look like that. Did someone slap an aftermarket bumper on that thing? It looks good whatever it is, stock or otherwise.
