I was just wondering if anyone knew what a stock 1993-1995 RX-7 ran whei it first came out, and what its gas milage was. Its hard for me to find out any information about stock RX-7s to compare used ones to now a days.

Thanks,

HappyFD

P.S. do you guys this the new RX-8s are any good?

 

Stock times are 13.7-14.1. On the street tarmac, street tires you can't get it into 13's I think. Gas mileage is equal to say 300ZX or similar 3.0 turbo engine.

RX8 only shares similar name and similar engine (without turbos though). I would pick RX7 over an RX8 in any day. But then again, my RX7 is not my daily driver.
