MN 18yr Olds 1st Car - 77K 1985 GS 12A And Lovin' It

Hey guys, I think its about time I introduce myself formally on the forum. I am a recently-turned rotary runner in Isanti, Minnesota that was fortunate enough to get myself a 1985 GS with the 12A in it, and only 78,xxx on the clock when I transferred the title into my name! I just turned 18 years old a few weeks ago, and I absolutely love my car. I have big plans for it, but these will probably come into fruition when I have a bit more cash in hand next summer, as I am in full-time PSEO through my high school (attending paid college while still in high school ). So my rotary is currently run to get me back and forth between work and school, and any other errands I need to run. I love this car, and I already plan on getting a couple more 7's

Thanks for the support guys, and i look forward to conversing with you all for a long while to come.

I have absolutely no plans on her going anywhere, because it is an awesome car to drive and own. Few know what it is, and those that do appreciate it. Those that I gracefully allow to drive it love the driving experience so much they then want one haha

MN Update

I would definitely looooooove louvers on her, I love the styling they offer

Here are some pics in my album on my profile that I wanted to slap up here for everybody that looks











Thanks for lookin! As of today it has 80,7XXmi on the odometer, so a little more than 2,300mi this summer. Will hopefully be put in a garage this winter so I can do some mods on her

Very nice car. I have an '85 GS also. They are so much fun and drive amazing. It's nice to see younger people appreciate a true RWD sport car. I have an FC also, but FB's are more to the true sports car spirit. Small, simple and uncluttered with gadgets, cold, hot, no ABS.
You are getting into the kind of car only a chosen few people can appreciate. It's an elite club to own a rotary car. Be proud and enjoy it. Good luck with your new ride.
