New RX-7 Owner

So i recently bought a 1985 '7' and i am in love. I'v heard of these things and once i drove it, i haven't stopped....well untill the clutch release cylinder went out today. But during those hours i was driving, it was amazing. Amazing balance and grip. Amazing power from such a small engine. I bought this car from a friend who had it as a profect/restoration car, but the wife made him sell so i got an amazing deal. $500 for a red, ,5-speed, 133k, and runs like a kitten (puring away). So it has a bunch of emmissions **** on it and i need to get that off and get this thing breathing again. Well of course there are a million things i should do to it, but het i thought i'd say hey and that i am happy to be here....I'm in newberg Oregon by the way so anyone around there hit me up and we should go for a spin

Welcome to the club! Must learn to love the smell, and be prepare to get dirty. The joy of driving this wonderful cars is all worth the hassle in my opinion. =P
