It would be cool to have a secondary question to the poll that says "How many times have you blown your engine?"

Then you'd see 25 and under stealing the show there! :P

Waaayyyy too many under 25 people with an FD.

 

I got my rx7 when I was 14. Im 16 now. Rx7s are great cars. More power to them.

 

As long as we're paying for it ourselves you should have no problem with it. Hell, I'm in the <20 category.

 

Im only 23 and have blown my fair share of motors. as to how we afford it im not exaclty sure how i do. eat alot of ramin i guess

 

hey im 19 now and i bought my 3rd gen at 18. its my daily driver and i DID buy my car by myself. and how...im a drafter for residental houses, so yes i make the money.

I am 23
On my fourth rx7
2 2nd gen's
1 1st gen

And currently own my baby 1993 FD for 2 years.
Rotary nut since I was 15.

 

I'm 22. Being a Sergeant in the marines affords a 13K car.

 

I'm 27 and don't feel too old for driving FDs

Well, just kidding...

cheers

Bought it when I was 63. Got it restored more or less and running well when I was 64. I'll be 66 this year. Not my first sports car, but the very best I will ever own, I am sure.

 

i bought wen i was 17......18 now and loving it styll

 

18

 

My thought too, initially,....but then again when I look around adolescents (of driving age-roughly 16-25) driving around in 15-21K cars are a dime a dozen. I give them credit for going FD instead of adding another freakin' POS Eclipse to the street. Once you go rotary, it is hard to go back!! IMO.

 

i m 25 ... i have my FD for 1 year... i have FC for 4 year la

 

27

Lusted after one of these since they came out in 93.

Bought my first '94 FD fresh out of college at 21. Kept it for 6 months, then sold it because I was so afraid that it'd break down on me I kept babying it. No point in keeping a car if you're going to drive it like an old lady...

Fast forward to a year ago. Bought a WRX and a Mazda 323 GTX in the intervening years. After I found out that my brother was selling his '95 FD, I decided that I didn't need two rally cars. Sold the GTX, and bought the RX7 from him. Ironically, I drive this one around like an old lady, too...

And how does a young'n like me afford a car like this? I can thank good old uncle Bush for shoveling money into the defense industry (my employer) these past few years. Well, that and depreciation.
But yeah, there are a lot of really young FD owners around here...

32..... Bought my FD a year and a half ago.... I allways wanted one since the auto show in 1992.... Back then I could'nt afford it.... Got a first gen as a high school graduation gift back in 1989...

 

i`m 22.. had my fd for a year and a half......

 

23

 

17 now had since 16 have rebuilt 2 of them never work on anything liek them

 

I'm 27 as of a couple days ago. Got my second fd about 6 months ago.

 

I'm 27 this year and 6 mths into my second FD. I tried a few other cars before this second baby, beemers, civics, silvia's but nothing quite stirs the blood like a fd. Still can't believe it is 10 years old!

 

25

 

I'm 32 and I got my fd brand in 1993 so that will be almost 11 years that I've had it.

 

I am 48 and own a 93 FD. I have an engine coming and have yet to ever drive a Rx7. I bought it with a bad engine. It's a base model blue and am the second owner. It has 53K on it. I plain to install the engine my self, it should be running in two weeks.

 

i don't think this poll is really valid anymore, I mean its been over 2 years, i'm sure alot of people have moved age categories by now, idk, just a thought

 

Im 17, I was 14 1/2 when this thread started! :rfol:
