No mine is flaking white paint with spots of gray primer.

I thought that was some super custom Matte Gray graphics

Yea she goes pritty good.. it has had multiple set ups over past couple years.. 2 rotor with a T70 maiking about 25psi.. then a 3 rotor with a T70.. then the stock LS1.. and now the built LS1. he is building stainless headers for a twin setup as we speak.. ill put it this way.. i drove it when the swap was done and stock LS1 was noticably faster than the rotory motors.. and well you can punch it in any gear and she GOES... 6th at 70 give it 3/4 throttle and instantly your at 90 for passing people.. the V8 is how these cars should have been made..

Looks like a cross between a viper and a 1990 trans am lol

The front looks like a Miata or a dodge stealth and the rear looks like the 90's trans am.

And with that motor does he need that tail pipe? lol

Those late model RX-7's are pretty nice little rides IMO. I'm not big on imports at all but that's one of the few I'd rock. Just has nice lines. Then with the power plant that one has

The designer that designed the original miata designed the Rx-7s also so it makes since for the front to look the same. Well as for the exhaust. The can is soon to go. It's an very nice all stainless system that was from when the rotary motors were in there. Soon will be a plain 4" stainless tip and that's it.


Burb--- you hit nail on the head with power plant drool. It deff has GO in it's blood.
