Hello, this is my first time on this board and I was wondering if you guys could help me with some answers to some of my questions about the 3rd gen rx-7... I am looking for one to use as a daily driver. What do I need to look for when im buying one? I have heard many horror stories about thier reliability and having to rebuild engines at 30-40k miles, is this true or is only if you beat the crap out of it? What is the highest milege I should look for without really having to worry about it? And lastly do you guys all agree with me when I think it is the most bad-*** car out there as far as looks, handling and speed? Any other advice or personal statements about this car would be greatly appriciated

Thanks

These will give you much of the info you need, although I think some of the reliability mods are paranoid and go too far.

 

BTW....you didn't exactly choose the best sign for an RX-7 forum. Some of the forum members are more hostile than others.

 

Im sure I can deal with hostile people, there are none more hostile than the clubsi board.... Trust me!

 

He makes a valid point there.
