No I'm not blind....I know exactly what it is.

I also know that '94 FD's aren't collectable, and that any '94 FD out there is a paint job away from being a Pearly White '94 FD.

It'll make an interesting curiosity at next years Sevenstock, but no-one will pay a decent premium to buy it.

I wish Pablo all the best with his car, and it's great that it's been identified.....but I don't think he will be able to cash in when (or if) he sells it.

Peace.

To an FD enthusiast, it is going to be one of the more valuable FDs around.

A paint job doesn't change the original VIN and paint code.

Just like an all original hemi cuda is worth more, so will this FD.

I think you are mistaken, as this car will fetch a much higher price than any other 93-95 stock FD.

The trouble is, FD enthusiasts are tight arsed and broke most of the time...... .

Cheers.

Pablo...more close up pics.

BTW, take this car to next years Sevenstock, sell it for a shedload.......and then come on here and tell me to shove it!!!

That's the way.

I daily drive my RZ....it's done 12,500 miles, but had 9,300 miles on it when I imported it in June.

No fun owning one only to wipe the dust off it in the garage every weekend.

Gomez, I'm not sure how many FDs are on the road in Australia but they are becoming quite rare here in the states. Unless I am actually meeting up with someone with an FD, I rarely rarely see them.

True that. I've had my FD for a little while and still have never ran into another FD on the road.

Hey Pablo, how 'bout a look at the suspension setup. I'm surprised that a P.O. would have put stock wheels back on it, but the suspension might still be there.

There's only been two in my town since they were produced, and that's only been for the past three years.

Yeah I realize it's not a Hemi 'Cuda.

If I was in the market for an FD, I would be willing to pay a good deal more than 2k over the going rate for that car. As a matter of fact, if the car WAS for sale I would buy it and sell my car. I firmly believe that the 3rd gen RX7 will be a valuable collectible someday. How much and when are questions that can't really be answered, but you can bet that a 1 of 1 will be worth more than the others...

Ask yourself this: If you were in the market for an FD, would you pay more to have a unique FD?

I think most people would.

I feel the same way about my R32 GTR V SPEC II. I daily drive mine as well for the most part. Most are garage queens out here.

That is kind of saddening to know the the only pearly white is being daily driven... take good care of her. I would still sell it and buy a clean one and put the extra money in the bank. Or Restore it to showroom new and garage it and show it as a specimen of Mazda's finest Engineering.

But that's just me. Enjoy YOUR car.

Make sure you swap in an RB20E or RB25DE for better performance.

Seems like that is the swap of choice among some FD guys.

Pablo... are you serious?..... I don't think anyone can be some ignorant/stupid...... DONT drive the car!!!! If it IS the one and only, you shouldn't EVER take it out... You will go into the Guiness book of worl records as the STUPIDEST man in the worl if you somehow crash it!!! **** happend... ppl get t-boned by some drunk *** tard who decides run a red light all the time!!! Dont risk it.... Get the car's popularity up... Theres no point of having the ONE and ONLY if nobody knows taht it's the one and only.... get the word out... Take it to a show or something. Contact mazda.... Maybe later sell it and get 2 FDs that you will actually be able to drive and not be afraid to drive.

But anyways... I refuse to believe that this is the one...
Mainly because the "unicorn" one and only pearl white FD was made in 94 right?! (as shown on the US production numbers list) So it's supposed to be a 94 right...? How come on the Post by Gomez it states that the N6 paint code was only made from 1992-1992?.... The pearly white FD was supposed to be in 94....
And either way, Where are the Eibach springs, sway bars, Work Equip 18X8.5F, 18.9X5R wheels with Dunlop SP8000 tires, RS Akimoto Intake, Intercooler, and cat back exhaust?..... It's supposed to have all of that....
in conclusion.....
SHOW US PICTURESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will not believe anything without pictures. I understand someone could've changed the wheels back to stock.... But PICTURES OF THE SPRINGS, THE SWAY BARS, INTAKE, INTERCOOLER, EXHAUST and all that!!!!
Thanks.
