So tell us why you got it, what inspired you and how the heck do you plan to pay for all this?

Brian, thanks for taking the time to register and welcome aboard to RX-7 Club!

I have always wanted and looked at rx7's. I have been saving some money up for a while and finally able to do it. This is my first turbo car so not sure what to expect. I daily drive a vortech 350z . The rx7 is almost complete. I will post some pictures when i figure out how to shrink the image sizes.

Current picture of engine. Car is Ultra Sonic Blue Mica.

A family friend who is a retired painter did the paint job for me. I just paid for the paint.
