Is it just me or is there an abundance of Red 2nd gens. I see so many more of that colour all over North America then any other one. DId they make more red's then any other colour?

Possibly. I have a red one sitting in the driveway. But here in utah red isnt that common. Silver is most common here.

I have a red t2, but its a 91 and not only are rx7's pretty rare around my area in general, a 91 is super rare. most of the t2's i see around are white. Infact, I dont think ive seen a red t2 around here other than mine.

black are pretty rare too, i think they look nice but you cant really see the lines that define the FC. So I like white and blaze red, not s4 sunrise red.

I've got a '91 turbo and an '88 vert, both red...... I see alot of black and white fc's around here, mainly because we hold a meet twice a month. Would be interesting to know how many of each color were done for each year.

Ya I think white is the most common color ffor FCs. When I was looking to buy one I always saw white and silver. So when I found a real nice red one I jumped on it.
There is hardly any FCs in my area and maybe 2 or 3 with in 200 mile radius of Fargo ND.
