I love the FD RX-7 (Greatest looking car ever!), but definitely would need to much attention. I just want to put gas in car, change the oil, and drive the car.

just be careful if a FD overheats once its done... hard to find a un touched subject...

If I had to go over i wouldve bought a 98 Jade TT Supra and done Single t-74 setup.

Exactly! It doesn't matter if he's a car collector. A Supra with less then 1000 miles he could of easily sold it for more. What was sticker on that car like $40k?

If you want a toy on the weekends then get the rx7 or supra....
If you want a DD then get the 350z

They are all good cars and they all have there ups and downs

The 350Z is a great car... nice handling... Looks great... also WELL worth its price... I own an 2006 Base model and I love it!

The RX-7... Great looking car... but said many times... has a lot of problems with it... Never owned one, drove one, or even ride in one... Still a great car...

The Supra(MKIV)... Great looking car... pretty heavy... but I've heard that the 2JZ engine could get up to 700hp with stock internals and still be doing great... Always wanted a Supra but it just cost too much for a used car... Even harder to find one in great shape with no mods...

So for me is... the RX-7 is a great car... but its too hard to keep it as a DD IMO... The Z is great... (coming from a Z owner.... DUH!)... good price for a new car... and the Supra is probably the best car out of the three choices... but costs somewhere around 35-45k... and almost impossible to find one thats in great shape and stock... Plus even if the Supra is a great car I don't think its worth that much for a used car... So what I came down to was to play a decient amount of money and also own a new car... Thats why I believe the Z is the best choice...

This is all IMO...

correct me if i am wrong but i beleive the non-targo supras are roughlly 3400 pounds and the targa's are about 3600 pounds, they are piggies when it comes to weight and whats incredible is the japs were still using all kinds of weight saving techniques like making the carpet fibers hollow......
