My Journey // 94 FD

I have had my RX-7 for more than a year now and figured it was about time to join the community!

My name is Jon and I am a car designer. I became fascinated with the FD at a young age, which served as a constant inspiration to me during my time at design school. Ironically, a fellow alumni from Art Center is the man responsible for the exterior design of the FD. Shortly after I graduated and got a job, I found my dream car on this very forum!

Owning the car is a milestone for me and a constant reminder of what is possible with dedication-to-craft and great design. Anyway, I look forward to contributing on the forum and becoming familiar with you upstanding gentleman (+ ladies)

-Jon

Nice FD!!!
Will you change the design, or leave the car in the original?

Do you have anything to do with the actual engineering of the cars or is it just design?

Congrats on getting a '94+ car, it looks great! You'll find this forum to be a great resource and find many owners are those who can afford to support new aftermarket for these vehicles.

Congrats on the acquisition.

Looks like you parked a little closer to that curb than I would have. LOL

Good luck!
