Bought a New Race Car!

Finally got a new car, well new to me that is. I know I know IT7 is dead, but I got a great deal on it, it's a solid car, many spares, and I love 1st gens and have always been a rotary fan boy so I really wanted it. I think it will be a great car for me to run for a while. It's an ex Spec7 car so it's a little under prepared for IT7 but it should be fun.

I figured I'd post a few new photos:

Nice SE-R in the background! :D

Haha thanks!

It lost 5th gear and developed rod knock last September...it still drives just fine. It won't blow up. :shrug: We drive it everyday, going on 305,000 miles. I have a new engine/transmission for it but just need a weekend off to put it in. :p
 
Hi Simon,
Congrats on your new ride! Sure looks like a WDC Region Spec RX-7 complete with Rotary Performance strut brace. Who did you get it from? I know most of the DC region SRX's, but I don't recognize that car off the top of my head.. There were so many of those cars built in the late 90's and early 2000's. A lot have been written off over the years, but there must still be dozens sitting in garages throughout the mid-atlantic area. Hope you enjoy driving it, very different than a Miata, and sounds way the h#ll better too! -Al Gervais
 
Thanks! I bought it from a local driver here in GA. The logbook shows it spent most of its time out west, Arizona to be specific.
