For most of you, just take your age and double it. That would be ME!

^ +1 Tim. I like to think we have now lived long enough to put our RX7 mistakes behind us. Of course I am an eternal optimist

Yea.... agreed. I like mine so much, I bought something TOTALLY different about a month ago (a second RX-7). Early '79 SA. Low miles and bone stock. Much more of a 'cruiser' than the FD. More of a nostalgic ride, but still a blast to drive!!! Part of my "bookends" RX-7 experience!

29, web designer. Second FD. Spent maybe 5k so far on this second FD -- nothing on the first.

I was reading the first few posts in this thread in 01. Crazy to think that was 14 years ago. Wonder what some of those people are doing now, and if they still have their FD's.

What's different from now and then? So many questions!

Hmmm, a thread this old makes you wonder how many are still around and still own an FD...

Some are probably taking psych meds and watching re-runs of Fast and Furious. Some, like me, are still fighting off old age at every freeway entrance ramp and hiding gray hair with window tint and a ball-cap. Beware those that are doing all of the above.

I am 26 years old. I work in corporate banking and in the past I worked in Aerospace. I have had my FD since 2008. I have rebuild the engine and have put a single turbo on it since that time.

35 now, work for a local Mercedes Benz dealer as a SA.

Had my R1 since May, havent spent money on anything but fluids since it's bone stock.

Grew up in a Mazda family with RX7s in the 80s in Qatar/Dubai.

After seeing enough exotics and high end cars working for Mercedes, i wouldn't change a thing about owning my FD. Plan to keep it for as long as i can keep it

29 for the next 4 months. I'm a database administrator for a healthcare company. I've been there 7 years. I've been into 3000gt's and subaru's since I was 17. I've always liked RX7's though and will probably buy one this spring/summer if I can find the right one.
