appreciating the rotary!!!!!

its been 3 weeks since i've been driving my honda beater because my 7 is out of service and im telling you guys, i miss it so much, driving the honda made me appreciate my real car even more. i hate it when i get to work or to school and have everyone look at me in the honda. dont get me wrong i'm thankful i even have a car to get around, its just that when you are a rotary owner the last thing you want to be seen in is a honda.
anyways i was visiting www.cb7tuner.com which is a forum like this but designated to 1990-1993 honda accords and even our forum is way better than that one. it wouldnt let me post in the classifieds so that i can sell my accord to be able to fix my seven
seems like lately my 7 just hasnt been that lucky. oh well i guess i'll eventually sell the honda

I always thought rotaries were the coolest type of engine. Better than a V8, better than an inline 6 (or 4 if you're in a HONDA), better than a boxer motor... not because they make more power necissarliy, but because you can rev them up so easily--I can't think of a smoother running/sounding/working internal comsuckion engine I remember when I had a 1st gen, that thing was just the coolest car. Featherweight (albeit underpowered a bit), but it was such a nice engine it made the car a joy just to start up and blip the throttle

But hey man, that Honda: everyone knows that they get good fuel economy, and generally have good reliability. They're great cars, in general; but they will never be as cool as a rotary

PS You live in Spring Valley? I used to go to Southwestern College.... I used to live in Bonita. Nice place.

Yea its also cool that when you drive your car around you are probally the only one on the road for miles. I remember when i first got my seven i think it was like 3 weeks before i saw another one on the road.

You should put a club rx7 sticker and get one that says "this is my beater, My other car is a TurboII" and put that under it lol.
