I feel for ya mappy. The 3rd gen RX-7 was one hell of a sweet ride, I wish I could have got my hands on one, I agree with you, there is very little if anything they could have done to make it better.
The designers for the RX-8 should have been drug out into the street and shot,:badass: they got all the RX-7 fans on there feet for its unvailing, then what? UGLY! a shame that it carries the RX name
Im sorry to hear about the loss of your bro's 86, my friend has an 85 that's on its last legs right now too. Time for a rebuild of the engine and tranny on it, so I expect it will probably end up in the graveyard too. (Wish I had a garage, id take her and give her a good home

)
I had a Mazda 323 and I Always like Mazda's but couldnt stand the price of parts, so I ended up with a Chevy
Long Live The RX-7's!!
