My turn to barge in!!
Had two friends that owned massive single turbo Supras. They found out that I had an RX7 and after a test drive on the freeway at about 150mph with a somewhat stock build, they were creaming in their pants. Thought that they would shoot a wad on the windshield when we went around a 360 off-ramp and never got below 65mph (17 inch rims, P-Zero tires, better roll bars, strut town brace).
One of them owns a RX7 that gave him hell for about a couple of months but is a bat out of hell now.
I prefer the RX7 to the Supra, too many damn Supras on the road right now anyhow and Mazda didn't try to pretend that they had a back seat on their cars. Saves me the time of ripping out all that crap to save weight. Hell I race at the track sometimes with the spare in the car to put some weight on the rear wheels!!
Supra is a tank but the engine is pretty reliable with some Hp. RX7 requires a lot more love but it can easily become a daily driver. Mine is!!

just go for it and get a 7 since you've already gotten the rotary bug...
One thing that only 7 owners can experience, the smoothness of the rotary and the characteristics of it...sometimes it's not just how fast or how good the handling is you know. When I first drove an Rx7 (a second gen NA), I was hooked on how the car reacts when you punch it when compared to a piston car. The rotary is just so rev-happy if you know what I mean (probably not since you have a supra)... : )

OK, HERE IT IS.... A RX7 CHIC'S PERSPECTIVE....
IF YOU WANT TO BE A *****, THEN KEEP THE SUPRA!!!!
BUT IF YOU WANT TO GET *****, THEN GET A 7!!!!
I don't know what you are looking for in a vehicle, but if you are looking for a quick, lite, unique car...then you should really go for a rx7! They are AWESOME cars and I found that out AFTER I test drove 3 Supras and then I drove my 7 and fell in love!!!
AND BELIEVE ME...I have PLENTY of girl friends that model with me and they all agree with me on this one...if you were to ever see a supra pull up next to a rx7, and the drivers where males, the rx7 guy would get ALLLLLL of the attention!!!
7 GUYS ARE THE ****!!!!
