Hello,

i´m André from Germany and i´m thinking about to import an RX7 FD from Japan My question is if i can use the Mazda as an Daily Driver or doesn´t make this any sense? I have to drive 9miles one way to my work and back, and sometimes at the weekend. Will that hurt the FD or is this no Problem?

I would only import a stock one with under 60.000miles.

thx!

Cya

It depends on how alert you are to problems, and whether you can afford to have it out of commission for days at a time while you fix the inevitable problems that will come up.

IMO, you can do it, but the FD is not the ideal car to be a daily driver.

 

Yes, this topic has been covered before. It seems to pop up once or twice a month.

A quick search for "daily" in the title in the 3rd gen section came up with 2 pages of results

Yes, Many have daily the FD..

Yes, this topic have been covered since the formation of RX7club.. LOL!

And Yes, Newbs need to learn how to use the "SEARCH" function... But they are newb.. and he's a foreigner.. so, slack should be given

 

or more maybe we should make a sticky for the same old questions like im a newbie, or can you daily drive a fd, or whats all the talk about the fd not being reliable!!

and you can daily drive anything for enough money!

 

NOTHING on the FD RX-7 make sense.....including using it as a daily driver. As an FD owner, I'd recommend that you get something that's more reliable (Skyline). Is it a great car to own?....yes at times. Would you recommend one to your friiends?....no.
