questions

ok ive had my car for maybe alittle of a year. its a red 93 and ive had too many problems that i have had it... should i sell her and buy a new one or am i just not cute out for an fd. first problem i had was an oil leak...and i replaced basicly everything and that was fixed then i hoped a hurb and the alignment got messed up. fixed that, then my vacum hoses cracked and im currently replacing all that are on the car. now last night i put my racing beat lower springs on it and hoped another curb and basicly broke my radiator. yes i know this obviously means i cant drive for **** but in the other 2 cars i owned this never happend. i guess im just not ready for this car. but its seriously the only car ive really liked. ive wanted one for 3 years now. and still want one. so should i sell mine and get another one (perferably white or black) and get a later year model? or should i import an s15 if i can. (the only reason i say this is because a vary good friend of mine imports all his cars and knows how to get through customs.

Have you got a Daily Driver?

Maybe pick up something cheap that you can beat on, and start being nicer to your FD?

From all I could understand, it sounds like you should sell this and get an s15.

agreed you wanted the car now keep the thing. but stop hitting the freaking curbs, if you wanted it so much you would not treat it like **** or push yourself so hard, either trash a crapie car or learn to drive at your skill level. but for Hevans sakes remember the car, it has feelings too :P

Sell. The RX-7 isn't reliable enough for you. Get a monster truck and some driving lessons :o.
