Hey /o/,

Looking at buying a 1992-1993 RX7. One is a RHD at 130,000KM~, other is 113,000 LHD. Both around $11,000CDN

My main concerns are insurance (im 19, currently under my dads policy for my '11 Jetta) and the heat/wear issues the motor has.

I have no tickets and dont drive like a jackass. Both cars are completely unmolested. Looks like they were imported

I'm a mechanical engineer, and you basically have to be to own an FD.

Good luck, my 19 year old Canadian friend.

>>15016459
The car has higher maintenance costs than you can afford, and immediately you have to overhaul the cooling system if they previous owner hasn't otherwise you'll fall into a world of shit with a broken 13b. RHD will make your insurance skyrocket, expect anywhere from 300-700 a month.

It's not a car for you right now man

check the engine specs of an xjr and tell me you still want a miata.

OP here. Fuck. Thats what I figured. I really love the look of these cars... Im so conflicted :(

Im also looking at this Spec R S15. Its RHD too but its not rotarded. Any advice for the S15?

>>15016552
Buy an S14 Kouki instead.

get a jag

>>15016568
I really dont like the older jags. They just look like a typical british product. Overpriced garbage trying to compete with Germany and Japan.

>>15016459 Depends what you want to do with the car honestly OP. There are tons of people who buy 150hp crotch rockets, and ride really fast on public roadways. If that's the kind of goal you're setting, I don't support it 100%, but at the same time it shouldn't really matter what I think.

>>15016758
not a chance they would pay for anything on the rx7

hence the job
