Looks like the "Gold Portfolio" book to me, but interesting it has a Miata section added onto it.&nbsp Try check any of the large book sellers (i.e. Amazon, Barnes&Noble, Borders online) and do a keyword search for "RX-7" and "Gold Portfolio" - the book should pop up.

I didn't buy the gold portfolio when I saw it, because it was all in black and white.
Yamaguchi spoiled me

The "Gold Portfolio" is just a compilation of all the RX-7 articles in Road&Track magazine.&nbsp The absolute BEST book on FC's is THE RX-7 book by Dinkel/Yamaguchi - do a search for it on eBay, and several should pop up; there is a FC and an FD version out.

Yo,


The best thing about the Gold Portfolio is...the cover. They automatically knew which FC should grace their cover. It had to be sexy, rare, the epitomy of rotary greatness.

It had to be...the GTUs.
