Not sure if this counts, but after I bought my FD and brought it over to my parent's place for hte first time, I found out my stepfather had owned an FB and FC. He had always wanted an FD but timing was always off. Guess I fulfilled that legacy. = )

my dad had an '83, but sold it back in the ninties. He was always saying how the rotory engine was better than others, so when I turned 16, I bought one with his help( my mom hated this idea). We are thinking about starting a FD project this summer, but I have alot of things to pay for. I am thinking of selling mine when I come back from japan this summer. By the way, are prices cheaper in japan, I'm going to be there for three weeks, and i will have abouth $1000 in travelers checks

my dad and I both owned fc's at the same time.
he was thisssssssss close to buying an FD, but he got mad at the FC one night, and bought a WRX. This was back in 02, he has the first black one off the truck in Michigan

i will have to disagree, Mine is the cleanest white FD around

My son and I own the same FC!!! does that count?? We own the same FC cause He is 12 and we are going through this one together. Well that is not really acurate. Sometimes he gives a hand but mostly he sits and watches TV while I torque the motor back together. Ist Ok cause he does crawl in the tight spaces and work.
