NY Soon to be rx7 owner in NYC

im 16, and going to get an rx7 soon.

hold the flame for a second about being an irresponsible owner, and not getting a rx7 as a first car because of problems and inexperience and whatnot.

im going to learn first hand, and not get some 240sx, mainly because two of my older cousins have rx7s and being in them just feels plain sexy.

im buying one used specs:

Year : 1994
Make : Mazda
Model: RX7 Touring Trim
Style/Body: Coupe 2D
Class: Sport Car - Touring
Engine: 1.3L EFI Twin Turbo
Country of Assembly: Japan
Vehicle Age: 15 year(s)
Calculated Owners: 2
Last Reported
Odometer Reading: 31,160

all red

"This RX7 a very rare find, garage kept and had more care than miles, serviced and maintained by the RX7 Experts at Pettit Racing who kept it in top condition always running beautifully. It has had all the reliability modifications / updates performed and the orignal engine was replaced with a Mazda oem block less than 15000 miles ago. Just last week a major service was performed, a full tune up, all the fluids changed, trans, diff, brakes, engine oil and filter, a new thermostat, a 185 fan switch and a complete cooling system service. It also has about $2500 in performance upgrades from Pettit Racing, Cold Air Induction System, Power Pulleys, Stainless Down pipe, Catback Exhaust System and Column Mount Boost Gauge, etc. and all the orignal parts are included as well, even the window sticker and all the manuals.

It has never been involved in an accident and there is no rust anywhere, not even around the sunroof, it is perfect, (see picture) the paint is orignal with the exception of the hood which was repainted under warranty due to a factory paint problem with the aluminum hoods, this was common with many RX7's, 3 minor parking lot dings (see pictures) the usual stone chips on the nose, a small blemish area on the rear wing and the normal fading on the plastic parts are the only flaws, a fresh paint job is all this car needs to be in perfect show room condition. "

74000 miles on the body and gonna run about 17,000.

ive saved up about 7k so far, and have a decent income of about 1500 a month, still in high school and i think i can afford it.

im just wondering if theres any rx7 owners nearby that may be nice enough to show me around, and help me out if needed.

another thing i wanna do later on is "ruin" it with a veilside fortune wide bodykit.

thats going to be after im at least 20, saved up enough to buy one, install it,a nd paint it, and probably modded the **** out of my rx7.

hate on the fortune wide, but its the sexiest thing i can think of right now, beats the **** out of any honda, supra, even the nsx fortune kit.

please try to keep the flame to a minimum
