Old Rotary Love

Well, I have always wanted an RX-7 since I learned about them in 1993. Finally was able to get my first one! 1988 Turbo II with 88k original miles. Think I might just keep it clean and stock (minus the DP at cat back in came with) and just enjoy it for what it was in it's day.

I had to send my FC to, um, go live on a farm.



He was an organ donor, though. I have a nice pile of wickedawesome stuff I'd love to sell.

The muffler was the loudest. It sounded like satan himself was coming after you in tunnels.
