99+ rx-7's offered in japan only??

I was browsing on mazda's global directory, and found that rx-7's are only currently offered in japan. Well at least on the model line up of other countries website the rx7 is no where to be found... even in hk and australia 7's are mia, usually the aussies get all the good jap shiz...

Tough luck for everyone else I guess. If it were easy to import those I'd have one, but then again, so would everyone else. Bummer for us. Move to Japan if you want one, but there's a load of downsides to that angle.

I can get you one. Just the only thing is you would have to find out what you need to do to make it legal.. Im sure its a butt load of ****, thats why I decided to do just parts.. its much easier......

You can get FD from Car Import Agent in Hong Kong. But FD cost more than a GT-R.

Motorex said that they would import a brand new GT-R for $90,000 and a RX-7 for approximately $60,000. Anyone have that laying around?

Yup, GT-R are everywhere in HK. Never saw a FD in HK when I was on my vacation there.

A really good RX7, will cost anywhere from $14,500-$25,500 just depends on KM's, stlye, MODS stuff like that...

NOW the GTR'S over here. HAHA A brand new off the showroom floor R34 with 800hp will cost about $65,000 or very close to it. MOTOREX really ***** people, I heard they are going out of bussiness too, probably because they screw everyone, that just wants a nice car....
