Funny
It's funny to read some of the misconseptions people have about our cars...an 18 sec quarter mile? lol... I was getting a high 15 before 5 speed swap and a high 14 after 5 speed swap. They get so defensive about how our cars aren't fast. No one ever went boasting about how they we're faster than an RX-7 but who know's depending on the car they may be. Anyways... I'd still rather have the SVX But maybe I'm just partial...

having owned an RX-7 i would say that yes they are fast.
they also have a worse exhaust tone than a honda civic ride worse than the turbo Toyota MR2 I replaced it with, and RX-7s, when turbo-ed, blow up quite frequently. I understand Mazda on average loss thousands per car in warranty work. Maybe if Dayle has picked up his Skyline we could get him to pick on them for being slow |

Somebody posted this thread already...it was quite some time ago, though.
Yeah, the misconceptions and errors in figures are funny. I can imagine that the RX7 has a funny exhaust note - it's a tiny engine. Now, what Mazda gets (in terms of power - torque is another thing entirely) out of a 1.3L rotary is damned impressive, but don't expect the thing to rumble. Overall, the RX7 site reads like a lot of others. Some adults, but also many 'I've raced that' kiddies.
