Exclamation RX7 Buy ?

Hallo, I have another Question... Is it a good Idea to buy a RX-7 as a newbie to cars? Or is this just a big stupid Idea?...

I wouldn't say specifically that the Rx7 is a bad car for newbies. It's not unlike other cars in most regards; suspension, brakes, interior, wiring etc. The main unique part is the engine. All of this can be learned.

Is this going to be your only mode of transportation? If so, I think any older car might not be the best choice. There's lots to repair, parts can be difficult to find, etc. Rx7s are aging, and finding good parts is only going to get more difficult.

It comes down to the use. If this is just going to be a fun project, i'm all for it. If this is your main ride, I'd find something newer and reliable first.
