you are 17, and you bought an rx7? That seems a bit hard to belive...

Did mommy and daddy help you out there, and if so - why?

anyways - welcome to the forum, you're greatest resource when she breaks

 

your gonna get so much ***** lol

 

Hope you know how expensive that's going to get. Insurance i can only imagine for a 17 yr old...but unless you're rich, you should really thank your parents.

 

I have a 3rd gen when i was 17 and my insurance is just 94 bucks a month full coverage. I'm just 18 now...

 

im 16 my insurance on my 3rd gen is 190

 

sheesh and I thought i was young and ungodly lucky to own an fd. <-- 22 and worked *** off to get it

 

Welcome dude, hope you got a good job, or is mommy and daddy paying for everything......

 

damn dude, what do you do for a living?
i was 19 and owned a 1991 RX-7, and a 04 RX-8. i bought my rx-8 while i was at home recovering from shrapnel and gunshot wounds in iraq. im 20 now, married, and trying to buy an FD. you lucky ***.

 

your pretty damn lucky. i bet your parents are going to pay to fix it when it breaks. you lucky you dont live in NYC, cause insurence is going to be well over 3k a year when you get a FD at this age.
Oun - now you deserve to have any car for serving our country

 

Yeah, i guess it depends on where you live.

 

Wow, I just bought mine at 20 after years of hard work...This kid makes me feel like a pensioner.
Im quite jealous

 

bought my rx7 a month before i turned 19. Insurance is around 1115/month full coverage in CA. And I paid most of it myself for the car, parents helped with a bit. But of course, I am working at Bank Of America, getting paid pretty well and still have trouble surviving with the damn gas price LOLZ. Welcome to the forum, and hope that u dont *** up ur nice rx7. And of course learn from it and treasure it and LOVE IT, becuz the 7 will bring u so much attention that u would never xpect =D Welcome buddy!

 

im going to bite my tounge on this one, but that is alot of horsepower for such a new driver. Try not to wreck it...

 

your so lucky. i bought my fd after i turned 20, but i had to work my *** off during my high school years. now, im working my *** off AGAIN because i need to rebuilt my motor.

 

Is that a veilside kit on that?

 

Money is not what I'm thinking about on this one. You guys don't know the kid or how he got it so just chill out on that issue. I'm more concerned about a 17 year old, not even owning a stock FD, but single turbo Rx-7!

 

20 bucks says its already totaled because he doesnt know how to drive it. and when he does hes gonna neeed to change his underpants when the single kicks in. but yea good luck with that thing and be careful

 

FDs and teenagers don't mix....the only thing that mixes well with them is a '98 Chevy Lumina and a fat chick who doesn't care

then again, that car already looks "pimped"

all downhill from here....another FD gone....mine is more valuable now

 

you guys make it seem like an FD is an expensive car. wheather or not his parents paid for the car they probably didnt spend more then 17k on it. i can think of a lot of kids whoes parents have bought them new civics and accords and those are at least the same price as a used fd.

 

exactly

 

Nice Car even if I am not a fan of the Veilside ci body kit at all. Just take care of it and do not fill up your mind. It is way to easy to do so with an RX7 a go wrong.

Take care and have fun.

 

when i was 16 i had a ej20 swaped impreza.. i am now 20 and ive since then owned 7 cars, just swaping because i'm bored now looking to get a RX7, i dont know the story, just saying its not hard to believe that a 17 year old cant afford one, so untill we do lets lay off, haha.

 

I cant believe how easy young people can buy a car like that over in the US. Here in the Netherlnads you have to be at least 24 of age and have no bad history in car driving. The insurance is expensive as hell, let alone the gas which is 1,50 per liter.

No insurance company would insure my car when I had it when I was 18. luckily I could afford it when I was 21, thats even very young over here.

 

That sucks about the driving requirements in the Netherlands, but over there, you guys have other advantages.
