hey guys,
I have found a 1988 rx7 with under 30,000 miles that was driven by a female driver. The car had been sitting for 5 years prior to about 3 or 4 months ago. i am pondering on whether or not to buy the car. It has been brought back to life by an uncle of mine who is an excellent mechanic. I was thinking of buying the car for an everyday driver for my wife. Need something with a little better gas mileage. Also, the car is a turbo model. Should I buy it or not? What do you guys think?

Turbo fc's are probably the most fun car I have ever driven and I will love them until the day I die. Now that being said, I dont know that it would be the best car to get if you are looking for something with a little better gas mileage. Unless of course you are looking to get a little better gas mileage than say an alcohol burning funny car Seriously though these cars were only rated at 17-18 mpg in city driving, and even though im sure your wife would love you that much more for buying her such a sweet car, I dont know that its quite what your are looking for.

You're looking for a reliable everyday driver that gets good gas mileage. That's exactly what the T2 RX-7 is NOT.
