I hope the day never comes where I see a stanced, stretched, and Plastidipped FD! Sorry, end rant.

I'm not sure if you are being serious....

Truth, see the last several years SSM winnners

FDs are still kicking *** today

The door cards are the home made variety. I can't remember what Benny's cost but I think they are expensive?

A lot more than this yellow one. So if you aren't really selling list it at 45k. If you are serious 30k and take whatever you can live with.

Of course the best move for those with time on their hands and I don't think that applies to you is parting and returning to stock.

Just read in the sticked thread there are only 5-6k registered FDs left. I think you called it Fritz, supply is running low and prices are going to start reflecting that.

^you have to think of how many FD's are unregistered tho. I have one. I personally know of 3 people local to me with unregistered FD's. ^

I hope this info is correct however. I wouldn't mind a car that actually appreciates.

The unregistered ones though are probably mostly dedicated track *****, drift missiles, and beat up **** boxes sitting in someones backyard under a tarp.

The amount of people who have road legal rx7s in running condition that aren't registered is quite low i'd imagine.

Yep

There are less good than bad and soon the majority will be beat up unregistered junk and in 10 years even junk FDs will be worth something because it's all you can find. In other words this car will be a true classic.

The RX3 is becoming more and more sought after just give the FD a little time

It's easily the coolest rotary car ever produced. If you disagree I'd suggest taking FD appreciation 101.
