ON First RX-7!!

Well i finally did it after so many years of talking about it. its a 1989 turbo ii that i found in ottawa. car has 150k on it, and it seems to be still running strong, and i hope it continues that way for a while anyways ill let the pictures do the talking. feel free to ask me anything about the car, and it would be nice if i got some advice on rotaries since its my first car and my first rotary (what oil to use for engine, tranny, and diff, etc.). Oh, and my clock works too!

Nice ride! I'm amazed you found something like that in Ottawa. I live here and I rarely see nice rx7s around.
