Autotrader's RX7 list

Well, I was looking at maybe a second gen turbo, and surprise, and there are a lot of third generation RX7s for sale in Canada, and I mean a lot. A dealer in Morden MB and another in Campbell River BC are selling them. Seems they must have bought a bunch and imported them from Japan because they are all right hand drive!
Unless they are for the track, well, would you buy a 3 gen RX7 in RHD? You'd have to hang a lot of car in the passing lane before you can get by that semi! Or have a passenger with keen eyesight!
What do you guys think?
Mike

This is the wrong section for this, but honestly I can say that I would pay the extra money for a LHD car.

honestly I would pay more for a RHD car just to be different, drive throughs would be a pain in the *** though.

I've driven LHD in the RHD countries and it's no problem out on the open road. Once things get conjested it's dangerous.

i dont really see the point of rhd in the us to be honest, its just more dangerous, more of a hassle, doesn't really make you faster or any more special and for the most part people will see the rhd and laugh.
