Drove a FC today....
Drove a 1990 N/A convertible today. Its black with 120K with good exterior and interior. Clean engine. It got traded in at our dealership and its the first 7 that I've ever seen in the year and a half for sale on the lot. They're asking $2500. No smoke on startup or anything.
Point is.....ITS SSSSSLLLLOOOOOWWWWW! Are all FC's like this???? lol
Wanted to see if the S5 is faster or what with lighter rotors and whatnot....either the weight gain from FB to FC is humungous or it just sucked.

i've not driven a NA FC... in fact the first NA rotary i ever drove was my repu, and the 2nd being my current FB... that being said, i know that the verts were a lot heavier than the coupes, and i know that an auto FC will run 18's in the 1/4 when stock(saw it at the strip a while back)...

From the John Matras RX-7 book:
'89 Vert 3,045 lbs (3105 with auto)
'86 2+2 5-speed 2,625 lbs (alright, 1000 lbs was a overestimate)
'84 GSL-SE 2,590 lbs
'79 2,420
'93 R1 2,800
