Need ur opinion

Ok, here is the thing i always wanted to have an Fd, in fact i'm saving right now for buy one, only want to know what do i have to be aware, want to know this because i read a thread weeks ago and it said that you spend more money in parts than in performance in an Fd, right know i own an 88 gxl, i don't plan to sell it since that's my only ride and want to try it in the SCCA.

I really need ur opinion should i go for it and buy and Fd?????

let me know what u all think!

Thx
MAX-IMAL

It really depends on your financial status, and your willingness to put up with the car.


If you do not have enough spare cash to be prepared for sudden breakdowns, and are not willing to put up with it's sometimes erratic behavior; then do not get it.

You can waite until the RX-8, next Miata, or next RX-7 comes out.

Buy it......... I bought mine about 4 months ago and get excited about driving it each and every time..........."honey, do you need anything from the grocery store?" has become routine dialogue for me and my wife........hopefully she asks me to get one thing at a time so it takes me many trips......... you get the picture.........

Just going through the gears medium hard gets you to 70mph in no time, and it'll ease up to 100 without breaking a sweat.........am driving it next month at Sebring Race Track in Florida.......... for 5 hours on the 3.7 mile road course...... can't wait........
