im not saying they aren't any good... but i was looking for the same car and all the places i looked...most had rebuilt motors or new motor or whatever..and they were expensive. I wanted one with an original motor and within my price range... but i wasn't gonna take any risks with the motor going out on me. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

My friend bought an 89 2nd Gen for 3000 $ CAN. With a rebuilt engine... in very good condition mechanicly amd body wise. hes had it for 7 month and already he wants to sell it. Not good gas mileage, 300 to 350 klicks, plus its burns oil. Anyways just thought i'd let you know... it's a nice car but once they hit 13 years old their not as dependable as they use to be. plus there expensive to fix up... I suggest an MX-3 !! :)

i also wanted to look into selling my MX and getting a second generation RX7. I love how you can redline the s*** outta that car, and i love the way the rotary engine sounds with a good exhaust. their fairly cheap, somewhere around 1500-2500 dollars. i was also toying with the idea of getting a festiva and dropping a B6T or BPT into it and leaving it looking completely stock, right down to the hubcaps, LoL.
