i like the looks of the FD better than the C5, it’s something original, the handling is probably just as good, it’s lighter so it will be quicker mod for mod, etc. i dunno, just preference. obviously a c5 Z is a sweet car

actually i found one for 9k. the economy has hurt rx-7 pricing. but most good examples will be in the 10-12k range on average. perfect ones or mildly modded ones go for 12-15k, lsx swaps & low ass millage perfect showroom ones are 20-30k.

you need to stop talking about things you don’t know about, it just makes you look like an idiot.

and i’d take an lsx swapped rx-7 over even new vettes, besides the zr-1. unless i can turn around and sell em and i didn’t pay for it.

i haven’t been actively checking prices for probably 6 months now, that’s sad that they keep going down. they’re really great cars.

I dont see how people would possibly want the Mazda over a new Vette. Sure the Mazda is cool and all but its not the same as a Vette.

I think the Fast and the Furious has gotten to some people’s heads.

Not the fast and the furious for me. I would take an RX7 over a Vette any day simply because a Vette is well… a Vette. They’re not that special to me, It’s a Vette, so many effing people have Vettes

it has nothing to do with fast and the furious, just because it’s japanese doesnt mean it’s entire following sprung from one fail of a movie :facepalm

and i’m a big fan of c5 and c6 vettes, but tell me how a c56 z06 is superior to the rx-7 in this thread? kind of a naive statement if you ask me. it’s really just for the name, and a drop in performance :lol

EXACTLY. it’s not the same as the vette, some people like different things. I’d personally rather own a mazda then a chevy any day of the week. C5 vettes which is what your option would be with the price of most rx-7s, they have horrendeous interiors, the exterior looks dated now with the c6. the rx-7 on the other hand, do a minor update to the 99 spec and it still is georgeous from the outside, the interior is a ton better, and is gonna be faster then a vette with the same engine in it. everyone likes different shit, and rx-7 is no better or no worse then a vette.
