I've recently turned 16, and as a right of passage it is time for me to get a car. I have narrowed my choices down to a couple, but the main one I'm focusing on is an FC. The only problem is I don't really know too much on what to look for. I feel like I want a turbo II, but I am curious as to its reliability. Would it be a lot less reliable than an N/A, or just a little less simply because of the increase in parts? Also, any comments about owning one would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

 

I have just turned 16, and thought it would be a good time to buy a car. I have narrowed it down to a couple of choices, but my main thought is an FC. I do not know a whole lot about rx7s though, so I am wondering what some good tips would be to buy one, and what to look for. Also, I want something quicker than the average car, and was thinking about the turboII. My question on that is is it less reliable than a standard one, or are there just a few niggles to fix so it runs better. I have read about the new TID, FCD and porting the wastegate, and I also think it is helpful that I live 2 miles from the rotary experts, Racing Beat. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, so thanks in advance.
