U won't regret it !. Good tip, when u decide to buy an fc, do a compression test!
I hate to see a new 7 owner start off on the bad foot; unless ur willing to pay for a rebuild, then more power to ya bud

For a compression check/parts and service check out Kyle (Rotary Doctor) in Neosho. He's just down the road from you. He may be able to help in your search for a good car as well.

There is no ugly RX-7 model, but I'll be damned if the FC isn't the sexiest. I'm hoping to get one soon, too!

Definitely a good looking Z. Looking to get rid of mine to jump into an RX-7 sometime in the near future.

Its always going to be a good decision to go with a FC but don't do a major engine swap. The rotary engine makes the FC.

The 350 looks great though. I personally wouldn't go with the gold rims. I'm more of a black car black wheels person. I was going to get a 350 4 years ago but I heard too many cons then pros.
