    Dat is a very polished car.
    If something seems too good to be true, you're supposed to shoot it just in case.

    The last time I posted, it said "Thank you for posting Zephra. A moderator will have to approve your post before it appears in the thread." I doubt the mods want to bother with approvals at this time, so I'll have to wait before trying that again...lest it get lost in the mess.

    hmmm. okay.

    Post was about rotaries. Pics can be found at the URLs listed.

    The Mazda rx7 (known among young drifter enthusiasts because of its appearance in The Fast and the Furious) runs on rotary power, not on pistons.

    The FD - 3rd generation rx7 - is the newest model. (After this one comes the rx8, but that's a different story.)

    Pic of FD: http://damox.com/cars/wallpaper/Mazda/Mazda_RX7.jpg

    The FC - 2nd generation - older model. Sometimes comes as a convertible.

    The FB (or still earlier model - the SA) - 1st generation - pretty old school. The convertible versions were conversions made by Pacific Avatar. It's pretty rare to find one (Pacific Avatar) in perfect driving condition. FBs still get a lot of love in the present day, particularly for those who drove it as their first car/first sports car. There is also a GSL-SE version of the FB.

    My personal favorites (although FDs are always fun for their speed) are the FB/SA and the rx3 (which is also a Mazda, but seriously old school). I also like REPUs (rotary trucks).
