hahah, no i don't own either. like i said, im poor. but i love both the FD and the s2000.
you're absolutely right though... i think a soft top convertible s2000 looks pretty shitty (with top up)
i think hardtop, though, one of the best looking cars ever. especially witha mugen hardtop, or one of the newer mooncraft ones,, very pricey though.
but yeah, that is a pretty sick vert FD. just was responding cuz i love s2000s. not trying to start a flame war. hahah.

JDM Night.Life- dont worry about it, its all in good fun. I love the S2000, but i love the RX-7 a lot more. if i owned an S2k, id throw a hard top on it immediatly, which would destroy the idea of owning a convertible, but thats how it looks the best.

i think that RX-F50 has a Subaru Pleides knock off sticker on the rear window as well.
The RX-7 should never be the "Poor Man's Ferrari." that's just too degrading. The Ferrari's like the Rich Man's RX-7.
you know, minus the carbon fiber, paddle shifting, and whatnot.

I thought I'd have to be finished with all that before I left the island...now it's all becoming clear. Well if I ever make it back over there... That FD wouldn't happen to be a Spirit R would it? Haha.

I've actually ridden in this car, and I can tell you that in person, it looks great.
It does, however, ride like a banana... no chassis rigidity.
