My buddy owned a few early 80's rx-7s. He would run one in the ground and then buy another one, like changing socks! Never been to the beach quicker than in one of those little rockets - they are wound tight. I like the V-8 power, the rx-7 was a little squirrly, but no doubt fast as lightn'n!

My boy likes the RX 7's but I would have trouble fitting in them, at 6'2" & 290 lb's I fit in my MX 6 just fine but I could never be comfortable in the RX 7. But you are right about one thing, those rotary engines are unbelievably strong and fast.

Most intresting, the redline on that engine is there only to save the accessories (AC compressor, alternator) from exploding.
