No, 255 HP here in the states, and I think the 276\* governed in J-Town…

If by engineering concept for a race car you mean new RX7 that will never go into production, then sure.

They don’t suck at all. They’re unique though…and require a lot of attention, but can be very rewarding…

Being a fan of British cars, I can relate to them very well.

Despite posting all of those demotivational pics, I def. have a lot of appreciation for the RX-7 line, the looks and performance are awesome, if only they could have added reliability to the rotary drivetrain than it could have been a much more successful model.

pretty much, i’m sure 95% of the people bashing them have never even driven one… i loved mine, even if i did kill the motor. I will say this though, its NOT for people who don’t have extra money laying around, which ultimately is what lead me to get rid of mine. i’ll own another some day after school when i have a real job 😛

Agreed, after owning both a rx7 and a rx8, I will always have a rotary in my automobile family. Go with an Rx8 if you really want one I guess. It does take a little extra care tho. I still get disgusted when I see ls swaps, something bout taking the heart out of the car. Remember, rx stands for rotary experiment.
