Spend most of my time around the Madison area, but live in Janesville.
Where are all the rotaries in Madison? The only other 7 I've seen in town this year is LS powered.
Anyways, my recently bought 7:

Kansas reporting in
Hey guys I thought it was time for me to post a few photos of my cars. I don't see RXs here in Salina, Kansas often. I periodically see a green FD in town, but I don't think they visit the forums. Its odd, really, because the only place I see it is on school days at the elementary school a block away from my house.
I apologize for the amount of filth on my cars. I thought my crappy camera wouldn't show it this clearly. Today was the first time it has been nice weather in months, and snow was finally melting away enough for me to get the RX out and about (unfortunately not a stop at the local car wash).
I've got a 86 GXL and a 93 Touring.
This is both of my cars together in my driveway.
This is my 86 GXL. Lots of issues, lots of hours spent, even more frustration. I finally threw my arms up in anger one day after I finally got it running and drivable to find out it has more issues that I didn't know about. Not to mention a previous owner made it impossible to let the battery sit in a secure location where it wouldn't move, so when I was driving it around town on my first run, I braked fairly hard at an intersection and that sent the battery flying back, hitting some pulleys and making a lot of smoke (of course the terminals hit the pulleys, it wasn't a pretty sight).
Current plans for it are either sell it back to the guy I bought it from or save money to pull the engine out, repaint (some chipping paint everywhere), and swap in a T2. She isn't much to look at, but she is mine. Perhaps someday she will be beautiful again.
Here is my 93 Touring. This car is a blast to drive, even if I don't have much in the way of mods. The only mods on it at the moment are aluminum AST, Koyo N Flow radiator, downpipe, and a new stereo headunit.
Once again I apologize for the amount of filth on my cars, I'll take some more photos of the FD when I am out and about with it in the spring. I'm hoping to attend a meet sometime this year to chew the fat with some other RX owners, I feel so alone here haha
