Question ~help~ Having some dillema!

Short background info: Okay, before I bought my G I have always wanted an FD (93-95 Mazda Rx-7) and I actually had a choice between G and FD and eventually chose the G for its reliability...

So recently, I realized that I feel some regret on buying a G instead of Rx-7 because whenever I see one (which is in very rare occasion since its pretty damn rare) my heart drops. I've always wanted an Rx-7, still do.

But as some of you may know, Rx-7 runs on very fragile yet agile engine and VQs are just god damn reliable. At the same time however I think Rx-7 has damn attractive body; very seductive lol.

I really don't know what to do, whether to give up my G to get an Rx-7 or keep the G and enjoy the reliability...




or..



help me!!!

Ahhh, Andy, you should've made the poll public! I wanna know which jacka$$ voted for Obama! LOL!

I voted to keep the G. I won't argue that an FD RX-7 is a sexy & very rare car, but that let's face it, they don't have that fail pic of the rotary engine for nothing! Keep the G and enjoy a sexy car that is also reliable!

Change the look of the G to something to suit your more sporty desires? I voted to keep the G if you are planning to keep a car for the long haul.

Andy, the grass is always greener. Once you got the RX7 you'd be like "I wish I still had the G".

Thanks everyone for your consideration!!!


Yeah I think since I am to be honest at an age where sporty things are attractive i might just do some sporty mods to my car. Since I'm in college I'm probably going to drive my car till I get out or perhaps even longer. Thanks for the input btw!

Rob, you mean this picture?



Or, if you have the pocketbook for it (I sure don't), get the FD and drop in a VQ35 engine.
