Hey Welcome to RX7CLUB.
I'm no where near VA, but will hit you up any way.
GSL-SE is on of my favorite cars. In fact I own one myself.
I have no doubt you will have fun with that car!
Glad to have you,
-Robert, Super Moderator.

What's going on guys? I'm Tito Rivera and I live in Jacksonville, North Carolina. I've been here since 2005 and will head back to Florida in 2015, just a few more years. Kinda always liked Skylines but started liking RX-7s after watching Initial D, go figure. My first car was a 2005 RX-8 and it was fun, but I had to sell it for a Mazda 6 since I was deploying and the wife wasn't too sure about driving standard. Good choice since I picked up my 88 RX-7 afterwards and now am in the process of picking up an FD. The FC was in bad shape when I got it but after fresh paint, new sunroof, and some engine work later it lives again. I'm not to knowledgeable on the rotary but eager to learn, not too many people here like to work on them either.

I dont think there is but a few, my dad has a black GSL-SE and lives up in amissville you might see him pass through warrenton during the week. And I have only see it a few times but someone has a two tone blk/silver 83 Limited in warrenton. My 83 is in the garage here in culpeper and wont be leaving for some time. but your welcome to swing out here some day and hang out there is 3 of us out here that have RX-7s
