<![CDATA[New Car... help me decide.]]>Hey guys, well the Integra is finally on it's way out this weekend, and it's time to start thinking about the next project. I'm a little torn right now between an RX-7 and a Supra, I must admit I am currently leaning towards the RX-7. You're input would be appreciated.

Yeah, but you never have to worry about the rods/pistons going out...LOL. Just apex seals. The key is keeping them cool, if they get hot shit breaks.

I just noticed the huge tires when I was behind and I was wondering why it had such huge tires.

If I remember right, I was like the 12th person in the state to own one.

After nearly 6 months I can think of a handful of the wagon around town, each one a different color oddly enough.

Liked it better when Carlson, Shane and I were the only wrx owners in town....felt more like an unique car back in those days.

I've seen only one sedan in this color. All of the others are silver, gray or black.

But there are a lot of cars I see a lot of. F150's, DSM's, taurus's, cavaliers, grand-ams, accords, civics, countless yukons and trailblazers.

i agree, i just tossed that out as an option if you particularly like the look of the 3g rx7, but don't know how to take care of the turbo rotary

Both cars are great platforms IMHO, but a well built RX7 would just be cool. If you do go w/ the 7, make sure you upgrade the cooling system (not that I need to tell you that I suppose).
