Not trying to be unloyal but i seriously want one of these next.
Probably a j/k reg .
Love the style, not sure whether the rotary engines are reliable
but it sounds sweet.
Next choice has to be a honda nsx i reakon.
Love the performance and handling of the skyline gtr but not
over keen on the looks.
Well i'm at it am i the only one that hates the new style scooby
what were they thinking. (Toyota Corolla me thinks)
:confused:

I agree, New scooby is horrible.

RX7 nice, can get J-K for about 7K I think. I'm sure I saw one for sle near me not long ago for that.

I'd go for the Skyline though. Legendary motoring.

NSX ferrari wannabe, still bloody nice though, but not my bag, wouldn't get the spare engines/gearboxes etc I seem to ferry about a lot in the boot. :)

M8, if you can find one the RX-7 is faster than most people think, almost supercar territory - it'll do about 160 and 0-60 is down around 5-secs! Guy round the corner from me has one - fuel consumption is probably one of the worst you'll ever have - about 12-14mpg and you think nissan spare parts are expensive, just wait till you get yourself down to a mazda dealer!! Must admit though it's a gorgeous car and if you've ever sat in a std skyline you'll appreciate the mazda is a better place to be. I'd be willing to bet it's quicker round a track as well, when it first came out I remember reading a road test between the RX-7 and then the Porsche 968 Club Sport, the Mazda won - more involving and a better drive - praise indeed.

There was a thing on them in Topgear a few years back. Quentin and Tiff agreed thatis was the closest you could come to a european styled supercar for the money, Tiff even went as far as saying that it handled better than the Lotus Esprit and other cars of that ilk.

if you get one with more than fifty thousand on and you can afford it take it straight to a place called i think wgt developments or engineering and ask them to recon the motor with carbon apex seals and youll have a fun car that will last for ages. one tip mate , about the only way you can determine if the motors any good is how they start from cold, should bite your hand off, if it dont, think twice.

Couple of MILF coppers with old shape MR2's too !.

MILF eh ?....Wouldn't you just love a ride in their cars :D

Seen one the other day with a semi race spec engine fat
wheels and an exhaust like a cannon 25k on clock j reg
£7500.
gonna hang on to the s13 for another year as its just had a
a packet spent on it (and we just went through a hedge together
so we got history).
Nissan are even replacing the spoiler which had the customary
rust under it. (on the insurance).(must have been knocked in the
crash!!!!!!!!!;) ;) ;) :D :D

Took the 2***** for its new timing belt today - got to the garage and parked it next to a MINT condition G-plate RX-7 in white. Omar at the garage tells me the woman who owns it has also got a latest model red one. So when I go back for my motor just now, there it is..the red one next to my 200. Daddy or chips? red one white one red one white one........

Came out of local CON-U-SIR and found the cleanest black RX-7 convertable i'd ever seen next to me, had a look round and the driver came out, said it was his uncles car and he didn't think much of it, FCUK WIT
