Hi Geoff,
THE CAR IS FANTASTIC !!!
Here are some pictures I took today in Orlando, I did change out the sidemarkers and turn signal / running lights to slightly more modern ones but that’s pretty much all I’m currently thinking of changing (except removing the rear red RX7 emblems). Car drives SO well, still need to get engine compression tested but it all sounds good. Condition is just so so so good in general I can’t stop looking at it.
I’ve never driven a rear wheel drive car before to be honest so having a rotary twin sequential turbo with an LSD to learn on is wild.
Still not sure on getting the car to Colorado as Boulder is now snow covered so I’ll probably leave it in Florida for a few months until I can ensure garage space there.
Thanks again for all your help, I’ll update you again when the car ends up in Colorado and when I get it on canyon roads ! And I’m not totally sure what’s up with my mom and her Figuro obsession but I think she’s still considering and will email you at some point if she hasn’t. Similarly, a lot of people were interested in who I had import the car so I pointed them all to you !
Best,
Patrick
P.S. The car is so insanely awesome I can’t stop driving it 🙂
