Wink Today was my last day (for a little while)

Well today was the day that I sold my FD. I'm not leaving the rotary comunity though. I'm in the middle of moving to the west cost and having 2 cars was going to be hard at the begining so we are keeping the RX-8. I appreciate all the help that I got from the forums members here. I couldn't have got the car where is at at this time. I will still come around here and tell the newbies to use the search fuction and flame the rices . The car was sold to previous owner which always bugged me that he wanted it back. We was happy that he got it back. I'm going to buy another rotary but is not going to be a FD. I got tired of bumping money into the car and it seem pointless at this point were I was planning to update the turbos and was going to end up putting over $16k in one year into the car. I be looking into a 1st gen or RX-3. But for now here is the picture of the new owner and the plethora of stuff that I had here. His forum name is drudwn.


Bye bye FD

damn man, sorry you had to sell your car..watching it drive away for the last time is prob very hard..

but if you're getting another rotary, why get a 1st gen? might as well get another fd later..an rx3 would be nice but if you're gonna get an rx7, fd all the way..

FD's are great cars, they will make you smile when you drive them, give you a better day when you are down but right now I don't have the time for a project car though. My new job is going to require a lot on my time to study.

May be I will own another FD one day but I'm not counting on it. The only way I would if Icome acros a great deal that I can't pass on.

yeah they are great cars but i was saying since you were considering another rx7 in the future, might as well get another FD..unless you're gonna not do anything to the 1st gen but if you're gonna throw money into an rx7, might as well be the FD..thats imho..

but the rx3 sounds good, ill def get that..
