Wanted to share some pics I took with my phone this morning at cars & coffee

It's amazing that 20 years later, and the RX-7 still looks like an exotic (and modern) next to the FR-S. Such nice cars.

Great pics!

The last Gen RX7 is truly a timeless design. It makes a lot of modern cars look clunky and dated.

jkonquer · 12-29-2012, 05:32 PM

Probably the best drivers car ever made.

that_one_guy · 12-29-2012, 05:54 PM

these are the two most driver oriented cars I've ever driven. very nice shots, do you have the pleasure of knowing the owners of those two rx-7's?

RRnold · 12-29-2012, 05:57 PM

I love the FD along the Supra and NSX! Damn those 2 are clean!

Since a NSX is out of the question the FD is my next car!

Thanks for sharing!

Unfortunately I don't. I've always loved the RX-7 and when I came back to my parking spot just happened to find my FRS next to two beauties, owners weren't there at the time tho

When I was car shopping, I was deciding between picking up a '93 RX-7 or the FR-S. Chose the FRS for a bunch of reasons, but the RX7 is still an amazing car!

Red5 · 12-29-2012, 07:59 PM

Even with all the oil burning and overheating issues I've heard of from RX7 owners (read: angry forum posts from past/current owners) if someone offered me a straight trade on ANY FD RX7 for my FRS, I'd do it in a heartbeat, no hesitation and not a single regret. Those cars are pure sex.

Opposed · 12-29-2012, 08:03 PM

By far one of my all time favorite cars...ever. I still remember when my Dad brought home the '93 Road & Track with the "Rotary Rocket" on the cover. I have never loved a car more since. Some day

Ebay but they are pricey best bet is to find someone on the forum that is willing to trade. I explained the install on this post

some awesome rides! love the rx7 body, will always be a head turner.

NorseLegend · 04-06-2013, 06:42 PM

I love the FD bodies... That is a timeless shape. I really hope that A, Mazda carries through with bringing it back and B, they have it look something like that.

Two fantastic cars.
