Curious: who would buy a new RX7?

Anatoray · 04-17-2009, 10:09 PM

I just saw an old 93 era RX-7 on the street today, and that solidified in my mind that no, I would not buy a new styled RX-7. The old one is legendary, much like the Supra of the same age, and every new concept for a potential new model that comes out just pails in comparison. The current one in particular just doesn't look right at all.

I owned one of those, great car, very fast and handled great, but the twin turbos usually went at about 75,000 miles, and was very expensive to replace.
