Hallo from Germany :)

Hey Guys,
im Berkay. I’m a Turkish guy livin in Germany.
Im lookin for my dream car, the RX7 fd lhd.
I now have a own workshop at home with everything and are now ready to start my Journey to happiness with a RX7 Project.
I hope that I can find one here in the blog, because the Rx7 fed lhd was never sold in Germany. It would be great.
thank you!

Hi
There was sold 446 FDs from German dealerships. Germany was the biggest EU market for the FD. A total of 1152 Euro-spec cars was sold.
Many of them exported over the years to other countries, for example Scandinavia and other places where it was not sold new. I picked up my mint original German sold FD in Pößneck, in the middle beween Nürnberg and Leipzig and exported it to Norway in 2014.

But yes, getting an LHD RX7 in Germany now is expensive, getting an original euro-spec would probably be 50 000+ EUR in decent condition looking at the current market.
Best guess is finding a RHD, either in Germany, or through some importers in UK or maybe Netherlands or Poland.

Thank you for the information.
In the German Car Sale Markets I never saw a lhd fd. That’s the reason why I thought so. I already found some rhd for good price (in German sight good price) but rhd in daily German traffic is not recommend.
okay I don’t want to daily drive at, but at least tuv.

When i was looking to buy one in 2014 i was so lucky to find the one i purchased. There was about 10-15 RHD cars for sale, and 1 LHD in Austria for a long while. But then the one i bought showed up after 3 months of searching and i ordered plane tickets that same day after talking to the seller.
I have no experience with driving RHD cars, but my we have a few amongst my friends (R32, R34, MK4, Chaser) and from what i understand its something one gets used to after a while.
