Red FD Spotted in San Salvador

Saludos desde El Salvador! I spotted a really nice red FD in San Salvador near Colonia Santa Elena . If you are the owner and read this send me a PM. I got a few questions I would like to ask you about importing a 7 into El Salvador. Thanks.
I caught a glance of an FB near San Miguel too. Good to see some rotary brothers down there.
Peace.

Do You See A Lot Of 7's In El Salvador? Because Some Of My Family Lives Over There By Sensunte And They Want Me To Go Live With Them But I Still Want To Keep Owning An Rx7. Last Time I Went I Didnt See Any But One Of My Friends Said He Saw Some.

Have any of you eatin at Hacienda de Miranda. It might not be spelled right because I dont speak spanish. But either way, the owner is my dads aunt, and my dads family is in part of the government and maybe this summer I could talk to em about pullin some strings on the importation of your cars.

Ha de ser un coche robado de los EEUU. No hay ninguna manera ni arreglar ni mantener un FD en El Salvador. Es cierto que aquel Mazda no va a durar mucho tiempo aai.

Hell half the country lives on dirt floors and more than half crap in community ditches.

They're so poor they emmigrate to Mexico de mojado and vastly improve their standard of living.

Doesn't bother the five or six wealthy families that live there one little bit though. They just make the walls que rodean sus haciendas un poco mas alto para no ver la pobreza.

If they serve pupusas then one of my family members might know where it is. If you could hook it up that would be awesome becuase now they dont let cars in the country if they are older then a certain year.

I havent gone to El Salvador in a year but last time I went most of the roads were repaired or in the process. Is there someone who knows how to work on a rx7 in El Salvador?

It would be hard for yall I know. If I ever got a FD down their I would go down the volcano (mountain). I went down it to get to the racetrack one year i was down and that thing looks perfect for some nice drifting action.

I've seen two FB's and one FD this last trip I just came back from. In a previous trip I saw two FC's. I am sure there are rotary mechanics down there. The street racing scene seems to be picking up. I saw a couple of really nice S2000, a couple of 350Z's a few 300ZX-TT a bunch of Civic Si and some other cars. I even saw a yellow Lamborghini. That's not too bad for a small country. The roads are in pretty good shape, but it really dangerous to go fast, mostly because of slow moving traffic. I would love to bring my FC down to El Salvador and have it stored for when I go down there.

7tcbody:

No, it wasn't stolen. I could tell because of the really good shape it was in and the fact that the guy driving it didn't look like the kind that goes around stealing cars. You are right to a certain point with what you are saying about El Salvador but I think you are being very bitter and exagerating quite a bit. What you said is true, but that's nothing new. That's how all of latin america is... 90% poor and 10% rich.
