Asking for cylinder amounts seems to be popular!
"How many cylinders you got?"
I say "I got a 10 cylinders! Eight on the front wheels and two in the rear wheels"

I get idiots like that at intersections all the time. I just hold the engine at 5K or so with the turbo wailing, position my body as if I was going to go for it, and then calmly pull away and turn right when the light changes. Always hilarious...

My GF actually knows what noise I make when I see and RX7. It's pretty funny, we were riding in her mom's car when her's was in the shop, on our way to school.

I made the noise, and her mom's like "wtf?" she responds with "rx7....".

lol, I think my wife is wise to that behavior in me, too. except I so rarely see RX-7's around here, so it always catches me off guard when she notices.

my gf works on my car with me, hates all hondas/ricers, and looks out for any 7's ..... i really need to get that key chain....people are so stupid

its always funny when people with brand new cars like 350z's and what not stare at your car longingly......its even more funny when ricers pull up next to you to challenge then you pop a flame and scare them away...happened twice

Not really an RX-7 story, but since we're on the topic of making ricers look like jackasses: My uncle had a porsche 924 turbo, and an automatic integra pulled up next to him at a light, put it in neutral, revved, and put it back into drive. My uncle saw a cop sitting in a parking lot ahead so he held the rpm's at about 4000 and looked over. The kid grips his steering wheel, the green turning arrow lights up, and he punches it through the red light. Needless to say, the officer wasn't too happy. My uncle just laughed and beeped as he drove by.

Lately more people have been trying to instigate things with me at intersections, I'll definitely have to give this a shot next time.

I was working with a guy and some how we got to talking about cars, and I told him about my fc. Later after work walking to our cars he saw mine and said "Ah there's your ferrari." And I just laughed and drove off. Pretty good compliment for an s4 n/a

My brother made a guy get immediately busted by a cop by doing that. The guy was so focused on getting his launch right he apparently never saw the cop sitting one car back in the oncoming lane. Light went green, and the cop spun around and went after him while my brother accelerated normally.

Yeah, there's a road by my house that's 2 lanes and goes to 1 pretty quick after the intersection. If there's a slower car in the next lane, I'll get on it when the light turns green so that I don't hold up their lane when I merge, if there's a faster car there that looks interested in the light, then I'll rev the engine a few times and give him a nod, then when he shoots off like a rocket I'll slide in easily behind him.

I was going to race a Nissan Maxima and the guy said to me i don't race against 4 cylinders... I beat him for a cars lenght...

One time i walked to a shop because i was having problems with my car and asked the mechanic
Q: Do you know how to work on rotary engines?
A: I have heard about them (laugh)
Me: I laughed again, and told him i was coming right back... I hope that he is still waiting... that was like 7 years ago.

A guy at autozone comes in when i was behind the counter askes me "who rx7 is that" i said "mine" he says " did you know those have a lot of head problems, they like to warp heads" i just laugh and walk into the back of the store. my altime favorite tho is
guy in 2000 audi wagon 1.8t " wow that thing is fast what motors in it?"
me: " A wankle"
him:"whats that"
me: " don't hurt your head about it, its not in your leage anyway"
