Cool My new baby!

Since everyone else is getting and posting it on here I decied to do the same. I got my RX7 one week ago. Great car! I live in montgomery, al and flew and then drove her back from houston, texas. She is spinning peoples heads. Even the ****** with 911's. Spent 400$ so far for parts that would die out eventually or did already. Here are the stats on her:

Year: 1993
Make: Mazda
Model: RX7 Touring
Color: Black
Interior: Tan Leather
Tranny: 5spd
Miles: 92,282 on chasis.
E & T: 16k on the engine and turbos.
Mod: Apex GT Spec Catback. Nice low hum

I drive like a grannie in the car. I dont want to wreck her. I usually shift before 3.5k, other times i shift at 6-7k. I love the kick of power threw all the gears. This car was Erics. Midnite was his nickname. Im not sure if he surfed on the forums though.. glad to be here.

Link to some of the Pics *

*the pics are huge! Just wait..

Nice!

Excellent car man! Looks like it's in great shape. I just bought one a few weeks ago too, very similar car: Black/Tan Touring. You have great taste I personally think that there is not much out there that can beat that color combo.

Welcome and congrats

Rob

I bought a Dec 95 in January and I'm loving it too. The only thing I don't like is the greddy exhaust. Installed by previous owner, who sold it due to the arrival of a child. He replaced it with a super-practical M3.

I don't like how the tip is big.
