I wonder what it would cost to reproduce this car, all ideas about taste aside.

It doesn't matter. You'll never get even half the money back that you spend on mods.

And the exhaust is definitely the APEXi N1 Dual.

Only 500 imported?? That is just an outright lie. Come on... and 4000 miles? Yeah, right!

They forgot to mention that the chassis has 150000 miles on it.

That spoiler is the worst. IMO if you ruin a 7 or a Supra with that type of thing you deserve to have the style police come and take your fast car away. Other than that I like most of the car, but 30K, c'mon, that is crazy.

It did win a show at the Expo mart in Pittsburgh (the expo mart in the burgh must be very prestigous in the sport compact set), so maybe I was wrong in my previous post. They should probably be asking closer to 40K.

This guy was at carlisle Custom Compact Jam this past year in PA. he was one of three RX7's so you can imagine who won.

This thing is ******* HORRIBLY ghey, ugly, etc. That color is extremely in person. Then ad the fugly kit! I don't care if the biotch is quadruple turbo'd.

In 1997 and 1998, the VeilSide body kit was "hot ****"... and it should have been, since it was about the only body kit available for the FD besides PFS's "snow plow" and Knight Sports' "quad light" bumpers.

Today, you have to consider that there are dozens of body kits on the market. It's easy to sit back and poke fun at someone else's car (and hell, I'll join you), but think about it for a second... At some point, you have to make a choice on what you buy. You can sit on the fence endlessly and say I want this or I want that, and as long as you don't buy anything, you can change your mind a thousand times. You're not stuck with anything. This poor bastard bought that body kit and had it put on his car, and from that point he was stuck with it, short of buying something else and getting the car repainted. It's easy to make fun of his choice now, but there was a time not so long ago (OK, it was quite awhile ago) when the VeilSide kit was considered "cool", and as I remember, no one seemed to mind that Marvin (Crashunit) painted his car roughly the same color after it was wrecked...

What was my point? Never mind, game on...
