Not necessarily converted...
Hi guys.
I've been a closet fan of the RX7's as far as I can remember. And whilst I've always been a Ford Falcon fan since I was a kid, everytime I see an FD or FC I just get chills down my spine.
I can't deny it any longer - I want an RX7. Preferably a non-turbo FC as a starter, but it will be modded down the track.
Apart from the fact that I know that FC RX7's have a 1.3L rotary engine and are a coupé, that's pretty much where my knowledge ends. I'm hoping this forum can change that ignorance for me.
So, what are the pro's, con's etc of this car. I've done my homework for insurance and am looking down the barrel of $2600 per year on comprehensive insurance. (24/m with a 60% no-claim.)
Hoping I can get some good feedback! Cheers.

See the search button? Yeah, hit that. Or better yet, check out the FAQ's at the top of the forum, has just about anything you can imagine in there and all the info you can handle.

I'd like to know exactly how this user is supposed to search for the pros and cons of the car. I just did several searches for pros and cons, advantages and disadvantages, and got nothing helpful. Changing the wording around and using different terms was basically fruitless as well. These types of topics are very hard to search for.
As for the original post, I do suggest you take a look at the FAQ and archives. Also, this may help: http://www.aaroncake.net/rx-7/why.htm

Best Search IMO:
Key Word = Thinking
Search Titles Only
Search In Forum = 2nd Generation Specific
