Look what I saw down the street...56k beware

I was pulling out of my driveway to go to Grapevine Mills for some new shoes when I drove two houses down from me and saw this parked in the driveway.












I got out of my car and took some pictures of it because this is the first RX7 I've seen in my city, and it was very clean. The owner was in his garage and saw me taking pictures so we talked about his 7 for a bit. He was a really cool guy. After a few minutes of talking I went on my way. I love RX7's...

I love the rotary that's why I have two rx7s in the driveway/garage. Let the owner of the FD know about rx7club.com and nopistons.com both are great forums for the 7s.

Before I picked up my Evo I was looking at some Montego Blue RX-7s. I would have loved to get it, but I was worried about having to do a full engine rebuild. Still, some day I would love to have one; they still look modern 10 years after production stopped.

There's a stock red auto rx7 down the road from me.. 27k original miles and they're selling it for $15k. Looks like it's in mint condition.

I edited your post. Production stopped in 01 on the FDs. They just stopped importing them in 95.
