93 FD w/ 380whp :O

Hi guys, I'm 20 yrs old and located in houston tx. I have been to a few of rx7club houstons meets in my rx8 which was the first car I bought. Get to start reading up on a new car and I'm starting with way too much horsepower to begin with!

here is the car, http://funcarsforsale.com/inventory/...%20Very%20Fast

and i should be picking it up this weekend. my loan was just approved today.

and my old 8-



I love the rotary community and can't wait to pick up the 7!

yeah it does look nice. As for 18-24 mpg... for the 7 i wouldn't believe that but who buys these cars for the gas mileage

Just be sure and double check the vehicle.....I am always leery of a Dealer plate car knowing they might have purchasedand done some inexpensive repairs just to turn it.

That's a nice find. Hp is a bit on the optimistic side given it looks to be still on the OEM twins...even with a PFC and a streetported motor at 15 psi. Probably more in the 350rwhp range.
The "massive front swaybar" is made by TriPoint (very expensive piece)
Looks like it need an undertray - you cna see daylight through the front radiator opening
and of course a front lip.
Regards,
Crispy
