Smile we are a blessed people.....

Just got back from starting my body work on my FD. Someone had a bit to much fun and now i am fixing all the dents. This will be my 2nd FD in the past year i have fixed up. GOing with a Feed II front and some custom skirts and a carbon rear diffuser. She is going to be BLACK with REd pearl. mm mmm mmm. so fresh. soo clean.
Do you guys realize how Blessed we are? we own one of the most coveted and rare cars on this planet. The most sought after vehicle i personally know of. Ya know when someone asks u, "what do u drive?" and then u either say boastfully, or privately, " a 93+ rx7. and then they either FREAK OUT or say what is that? that is a special moment. a personal moment just for you. OWN IT. enjoy it. even though half the time we are trying to figure these beautiful monsters out, and consult each other here at our own little round table, they are amazing. The way they mesh with each persons life without taking over. They are just to beautiful. Go take a minute of silence. and stare at your FD. It might be finished, it might be primer grey, it might have dents galore. but no matter what condition,u see the potential and the glory of it's anti-piston-ness. Thanks guys for doing what you do, and lets keep on spinnin.

Well I dont feel the anti-piston, but I do feel the same way about my FD. It hasen ran for a while and I still sit in it and slowly caress the wheel and talk to her. So here soon she will be back on the road with a hart transplant.

I know what you mean when you tell people what you drive and they "I dont see many of those" . I realy like the way girls scowel at my girl frind when we are driving around, and the guys give me a thumbs up or yell "smoke show".

See, my therapist said that's not normal...guess she never owned an RX7. It's not just a car...it's a commitment. And women say men are afraid of commitments!

Not trying too put you down put you do relise you can buy a 3rd gen for 10K. "we own one of the most coveted and rare cars on this planet"... Yah I don't think so. While it is a very nice car your making it out too be much more than it actually is (I own a 3rd gen)

Finding a manual without a rebuilt title is pretty rare

You guys STOP SELLING YOUR FD'S SO CHEAP!!!

Kelly Blue Book is there for a reason!

I live on ft campbell there are 4 that run here and on is ownd by a 60 year old african american female its a 93 r1 chaste white with black interior and it is completly stock in mint condition it is sweet, but im a mod car guy i actually pulled up to mazda and they asked what kinda car it was. I was like damn yall sold them you should know, but the again the service department told me they cant even work on my car cuz they dont know how. Im proud of being an fd own but sometimes all i can think is THIS **** CAR WHATS GONNA BREAK NEXT!!!! Everyone wants one but most people dont realize all the knowledge you have to obtain and the physical work to keep it running. Its almost as bad as a viper

Your description of the white RX-7 on your base was not correct. R1's were offered only in '93. R2's were offered in '94 & '95, but were not offered in Chaste White.

Not only were there not any white R1's, there were no white cars in 1993 for any model.

Aren't you the one that was selling that perfect one-owner ~40k mile FD that was just repainted, had the wrong color seats, the FMIC with the stock IC still in place and just HAPPENED to be also looking to buy a 40K mile speedo in the parts section?
