1993 Mazda RX-7 Turbo 2dr Coupe
Great looking car, with awesome
performance. Today's new cars are
tough to match. Yet, horrible
reliability. I owned 3 RX7's total.
All needed $1000's in repairs, despite
being babied and cared for. New
engines, seals, turbos, cheap plastic,
over heating, harsh ride, hesitations.
Japanese Ferrari

1993 Mazda RX-7 Turbo 2dr Coupe
A no-compromise sports car. Rough, noisy ride; cramped interior. Not good on long trips. Scary on wet pavement. 17 mpg. Not a practical every-day car. Find a mechanic qualified to work on the extremely complex engine; I found one at a specialty "tuner" shop. First engine died at 86,000 miles (typical); $5,000 to replace. Make sure you find out engine mileage; engine runs hot and slowly … cooks itself to death. Japanese Ferrari in terms of performance and maintenance cost. Expect to pay $100/hr for maintenance. $35,000 maintenance cost over 16 years. I love this car. I will never, ever sell it.

I've had my 93 RX7 for 14 years now and agree with the others, I still get excited just looking at it. Other than replacing my engine with a JSpec 2 years ago, I've had nothing but fun and good luck with my baby. Young guys stand in awe of the car everywhere I go and it still turns heads when I drive it. Get one if you can and you'll see what all the hype is about. Thank you Mazda for … building the best car ever!

Great car! Amazing performance and
handling. Smooth looks and it's a blast
to drive. More expensive maintenance
then a Honda Civic.
