Either not the first one or it may just be the only one that "can never be sold & you'll just keep spending your life savings on"

Congrats and enjoy!

I've had my Rx7 since 1997 and already went through 2 engines and a transmission. Still wouldn't trade it for anything. My advise is to try and keep the temperature cool. If your stuck in traffic, turn on your a/c for a minute so that your radiator fan will kick in. Make sure to replace the plastic AST(air separator tank) that's attached to the intercooler with an aluminum one if you haven't already, because if your car overheats for whatever reason, even for just a minute or less, you're looking at a new engine. Believe me I know. Always keep an eye on the temperature and if you see it start to move up, pull over and stop the engine immediatly. Also, try to have a little money set aside because something is always braking down. But like I said before, I still wouldn't trade it for anything.
