i wonder if that suggests they'll be worth more in the future. ya know, supply & demand w/rarity curve? will we see these FD's at Barret Jackson someday? What's the annual investment potential of this thing? Is there one at all?

Are there many/any Japanese cars which increase in value with time? I had a guy at Autozone tell me to hold on to it because, "That rotary will be worth some good money in the future!" I'm pretty sure he's really, really wrong on that one... but maybe I'm wrong! I really doubt it but hey... Who knows... maybe that dirty wankle will be worth something for some who-the-knows-why reason I can't figure out.

Its really not even bad. Its pretty easy choice if you like vette's better, sell this to someone who will enjoy it and who really wants one, and get something you think's better for yourself. No reason to "junk it" as in take it to a junk yard or something haha im pretty sure some people on this site would find you and do god knows what haha. Just kidding but seriously, it sounds like you dont really want it, so sell it to someone who really loves these things. These cars need people who can take care of them and who can do proper mods on them without ruining it.

There sure are .Look at the rx2 & rx3 coupes when new in Australia cost around $3500 now an original one in very good condition are selling for $30.000 plus

93's have crappy interior plastics that a lot of people don't care for, or don't care to swap out. Aside from that, the cars are pretty identical.

and why?

'cause I'm MGTOW ... but with a twist. I'm not a bitter, angry mgtow, I'm more like a mgtow who accepts women for how they are and accepts their true nature - the things church and family never told you but was as obvious as the matrix we all live in.

so, yeah ... i'm not sure why anyone would wanna see my g/f since there are millions of hotties in the world to whack-it too ... and the more time goes by the hotter they get!!! and the second reason is.. ... well, which g/f? i tend to ... uuuuhhh ... date a lot of girls. the other day i got busted. as you can see from my photo i'm not too bad looking and look 11 years younger than i am... which sucked when i was young and now it freakin' rocks. i date, like, really young women. last year (gulp) and 18 year old! super hot ... she was fun but, of course, ignorant as ****. all a guy could want who wants to pay for a girl ... which i'm not. hypergamy makes me sick --- the very thought of it. has since i was ... wow... pre-K!

so, i lent my Infiniti SUV to Tani the prior day and Bebe stayed that night... Tani was not supposed to return the SUV until after 7PM the next day but came by at 7AM and rang the bell and guess who answered! YUP! BEBE! Face to face. Oh man, that sucked! Two hot, Asian girls face-to-face in the Las Vegas suburbs. Dude - it was UGLY!!! sigh ... fortunately both girls ended up forgiving me and became good friends and since I have a nice king-sized bed the rest wrote itself. They got angry at me later 'cause I was dating a couple of other girls while dating them together. Whatever! Both of those girls, like all women, wanna marry me and have my babies and turn me into their *****-whipped slave-nig. Eff that! So, I dumped 'em for Stormi... whom I dated for a few months along with Kristen (they never found out about each other) and bla bla bla ... now I'm with Jenny and only dating her.

So, sure, yeah, okay ... I'll post a few photos for kicks

FD - Save it or junk it?  Vote now!-image.jpeg

Dating women in Las Vegas is like shooting fish in a barrel... but it's that way almost everywhere in the Southwest, really...

i've got about a thousand more i could attach ... but it only lets me do 6 at a time

anyway, to anyone who cares, please, listen to someone who is really, really old (me) --- DO NOT GET MARRIED! EVER! ... and only slightly more important advice --- DO NOT GET ANYONE PREGNANT! EVERRRRR!!!!!

end of lecture.

Anyway, these are the girls of 2013... and there are more... I can't even remember the girls of 2012 or 2011 or 2010 and no, I have no std's and never have... and yes, lately I'm really gettin' into Asian girls again! Just like in college... weird. Current girlfriend is Chinese 5'9" 128lbs and holy **** hot. No, I'm not cheating on her and yes, she's very rich... which is weird... 'cause I've never dated a rich girl before. it's actually very cool --- hypergamy is not an issue and i love that!

And yes, I know I'm fat as hell... and yet, girls still dig me! Women can smell money and when they find a guy without kids who's not too bad to look at is sane and fun and has a credit score over 800 you find the hardest thing to do is keep their panties on

What's this have to do with rx-7's anyway? Well, a simple discussion regarding what to do with my old car has turned into a discussion tantamount in importance to understanding the nature of the federal reserve. lucky you!

this is the reason i'm having a hard time keeping my FD. I think gasoline companies should give away cars like printer companies give away printers so they can sell the ink. The thought of buying a woman makes me nauseous and that's why I refuse to marry. The thought of having kids repulses me not 'cause I hate kids -I love 'em!- but because kids further serve to enslave a man. Falling "in love" is the key to self destruction. Notice how women don't do it ... not really ... very often at all. Salesmen want you to fall in love with their product. I'm in love with my FD and it's just like a marriage. After a man throws money at something for year after year "she" can get outdated and outmoded and be seen by the rest of the world as most of us would view a GM Gremlin! Yet, for those of us "in love" even the Gremlin is beautiful.

So, is my FD a Gremlin and I'm I wearing the world's thickest beer goggles?

My FD, when new, got me compliments all the time! FROM MEN! So much for the "***** magnet". Women rarely complimented me back then, they'd just come up to me and flirt and pretend it had nothing to do with the car. Girls who would never have flirted with me if I was in my truck. A lot of guys like prostitutes but I'm not one of 'em. Quit the opposite. So, my love for my FD is pure ... but the purer the love the more bitter the betrayal. I guess if I'd have used my FD back then, back when I was a good Mormon boy, as a pantie-dropper I'd have more reason to resurrect her. These days I'm pretty sure the '93 FD, when compared to the cars here in Vegas, would be lucky to drop the panties of a post-op tranny.

So --- whatever. My g/f offered to buy me a new GTR today for my birthday. I totally don't want it. The girls you see before you in photo I came by without a fancy car. Yeah, I coulda done a LOT hotter if I'd have put more money into my car --- and honestly I used to date 9's and 10's ... but now I hate 9's and 10's. Hypergamous bitches who pretend to care about you as long as the money keeps rolling in? Yeah, I'm not a mangina and never have been. 9's and 10's I've dated in my 20's claimed to love me but money was always an issue and in '93/'94 when I stated to make good money and the 9's and 10's treated me awesome until their birthday presents weren't good enough or the restaurant wasn't posh enough I knew it was time to date 7's and 8's and never look back.

And, yeah, Kristen is a 9 or 10 but she was only 23 when I dated her and that's just too young! Besides, she wanted kids, didn't have any money and no way in hell am I gonna be someone's *****-pass.

These are the days, guys --- I'm talking to you guys in your 20's and 30's who have not been married and have no kids. THESE ARE THE ONLY days!

Watching TV, hitting the gym, SLEEPING a LOT, eating great, healthy food, traveling, playing your stereo, playing Xbox, playing sports, playing guitar and playing women ... and notice how you don't marry your stereo, your xbox, your basketball or your guitar? Yeah... keep that in mind... 'cause when you kiss being single goodbye you can kiss your FD goodbye too. But not to worry! I hear the Nissan Quest Minivan drives nice and gets great gas mileage!

Holy **** - I think I can feel myself growing a vagina

nicely said --- but the real question here is ... which is less maintenance? a high-maintenance, hot g/f or an FD?
