2002 Rx-7

Hey All

I used to have a 93 silver RX-7 with touring package. One of the biggest mistakes I ever made was when I traded it in 1998.

I understand that they still sell RX-7s in Japan. Unfortunately, the web site is all in Japanese.

Does anyone out there know how to go about importing a new RX-7 to Canada?

I would appreciate any advice.

Thanks
Omar

import one as an off road vehicle and buy a cheap, possible totalled FD, and use the VIN number.

it's not legal, but it works.

FD is the chasis code for the third generation RX-7. 93+
It's very commonly called this by people who know the cars, and it's easier than saying 'third generation RX-7'
