craigslist.. sometimes cheapo FDs pop up because of bad motor and you just have to come off as trading a good working RX7 for a non-working RX7 lol
I almost traded my FC for a FD last year, but not having a job this would have been a difficult move. Then i think someone on here ended up with the car and saying how much a POS it was.

If this falls through...perhaps i will look into upgrading/changing the other car.

just sell your car and buy a roller, you can find a decent roller in the $3.5-5k range which is easily what you should get for your car.
problem with trading is the FD guys and their superiority complexes will **** all over your threads until you want to pull it down. a rolling chassis FD isn't a goldmine, it's a rolling shell that requires an engine, time and money.
keep me in mind if you do go through with it and need a motor done.

So that's the problem you're going to run into in trading, I agree, sell your and buy someone else's, trading always leave someone the looser, with cash you can at least slide the scale in your favor, with hard exchanges that's much more difficult.

lol wacky
I was more thinking to myself about the older car point that DCrosby was making but I am not sure what it was. I have my 7 because I truly like it and frankly wouldn't trade it for a FD. But I may add an FD to the stable down the road lol

I personally don't get the piston into a rotary car but I know there are those that don't agreee. I'd rather put a stoker chevy v8 in a chevy II aka a box nova and call that a day

Yeah i know, people who have LS engines laying around, id grab a late 60s camaro or other good chevy to retro it in. Hell i like C4 vettes Id do one of those up.
im sure some people here scene or know the one i almost traded for, it was a black fd with advans.. he wanted like 7 or 8 or something and was interested in straight trade *this was before I painted my car*. Than i remember a few months later someone popped up with that car on this forum. Probably wasn't too bad. I almost traded my car for a IS300 last year too . I only get those feelings/doubts when times are low.

Doesn't mean I hate rotaries, or don't want to be part of that scene, it just was the best financial decision, the alternative was to sell the roller, for $4-6K and bail on the RX-7 scene altogether, and trade the car for the house, which many here have done, and I wanted to avoid.
