Well, I finally got her all waxed up, and she was looking pretty good, so I snapped a few shots. I had a couple pics I took prior to waxing (just wash and chamois) at the Chesapeake Bay, so I figured I'd toss one or two of those in too.

I just bought the car about 3 weeks ago, and realized after I checked it out more and read through the records, that the car was resprayed. Apparently the color-blind painter thought that Emerald Green with some metallic would match the Montego Blue. He was wrong, but the green looks pretty damn good when it's cleaned up. Enjoy and let me know what you think!

After wax

 

Heh... they're a little bigger than I thought.... sorry bout whoring the screen with pics of the car!

 

whoring or not, looks very nice =)

 

not bad for a non production color I also like the silver calipers... nice touch.

 

The calipers were painted when I got it. I'm not sure if I like them or not. The paint is kind of chunky on them, but hopefully I'll get around to getting new calipers/rotors/etc in the future. Thanks for the compliments, and after looking at the first pic again... I think i might have a new wallpaper.

 

Tidy looking FD. I too have a MB RX7, looks nice. Took me a while to be totally happy with the colour but am now.
Wanna come clean my car?????

 

Steve lower your car! Those wheels would look so much nice with it lowered

 

Done later this month! Hows that for you?

 

ive got a montego blue/ green. word up to deltaville!

 

Montego Green IS/was a production color... just not for the RX7

 

I don't get what you guys mean by 'non production' colour?

I have a Montego Blue (Green) as well (1994). Does that mean it was resprayed? (It looks dark blue but when the sun hits it, it looks emerald green).

 

Nice pictures. Those pictures reminds me of my FD when I just bought the car. Personally, I really like the Montego Blue color. It makes the car look expensive!

 

its montego BLUE. Poeple call it montego "green" because a lot of the time the paint fades or just looks green.

 

Looks amazing, I think that's the best production color on FD.

 

MontegoRx very nice FD!

 

Woot for Montego Blue!

Here's pics of my MB FD that I'll be picking up Monday! NewER pics soon to come afterwards.





I need to buy an R1 front-lip for it, bad..

Anyone know where I can get one?

 

MB all the way.

 

actually I called it Montego Green because the original color is Montego Blue, but it's been resprayed. Like I said in the first post.... the painter decided that emerald green would be a good match, so now there's not even a hint of blue on the exterior. The engine bay and other interior pieces (under trim, etc) are still MB.

 

In US, the color Montego blue was one of the stock color available for RX7 in 1993 to 1995. In 1994, it was available for the M Series Miata (Special Edition). I don't know any other years & models have used Montego blue. Anyone know?

Also, Montego blue was not available for R1 and R2 models. R1 & R2 models only available for Red, Yellow, Black, & White.

RE Suzuki, nice MB you have. Maybe see you some time in the Bayarea.

 

I love MB as well.

a couple night shots.

 

R1/R2's were not available in white and R2's were available in silver.

 

Thanks for the correction. I mistaken white with silver. I also remember yellow (CYM) was only available for standard or R1 in 1993. There were no more CYM on 1994 and after. Otherwise, I bought my FD as CYM instead of MB.

 

Anybody notice the face of the a budha on the 4th pic on the uppper right side of the hood formed by the cloud...

Nice car BTW...treat her good...

 

haha, same thing happened to my car. . . whoever painted it. . . put more green into the mix and now everyone calls it "the green car". . . they all look somewhat green, but you can tell the difference side-by-side. my car (and your car im sure) makes MBM cars look totally blue!!!

nice car!!!

buddha???? i thought it was an angry monkey!?!?!?!?!
