RX-7 Worth It?

I've been browsing the forums the past few days trying to get some information on RX-7's especially the 3rd Generation ones. I have seen alot of people talking about there are alot of problems involved with them and that they require alot of mantainance, so is it actually worth it for me to buy one without having to fork out alot of money to keep it running?

Yes. My RX-7 (3rd gen) has been the best thing that has ever happened to me next to my unbelievably beautiful and special girlfriend.

The car is loads of fun, fairly rare, and damn fast.

In terms of tuning the engine, all I plan to do is tune it with the performance parts that almost everyone should do like replacing the stock turbo hoses with the sylicon ones, and the like.

I really don't plan on racing the bad boy, and running it hard all the time. I'm looking to do a little bit here and there and do enough work to the "Looks" on the car to turn it into a car to take to shows and just enjoy driving it.

The the reason behind this is because the car is an automatic, (I know, I know), but it's the only one in my area to my knowledge and I want to be the one who owns it.

As someone on these forums said, can't remember who, "Any 7 is better than no 7 at all!"
