http://www.shorecars.com/detail.asp?vID=380

some strong claims in there!!!

is this the fastest rx7 in the universe 3.3secs on twins???

and its got one of those crap engines which needs rebuilding every 40k..

i think this can be described in one word....

And 197 MPH top end. Wow what a complete load of Rubbish.

Youve got to love some of these people selling FD\'s without a bloody clue. Those slick tyres must really help on a rainy day as well, And you thought that jap rubber was bad.

Nice find.

"she had a £3500 engine rebuild which if you know your Rotary Engines you will know that has to be done every 40,000 miles or so" :eek: oh crap..I should have done my homework. I needed an engine rebuild 6000 miles ago!! :rolleyes:

That will explain why you cant quite get to 197MPH then?? I wonder where the vendor tested that top end??

Maybe they dropped it from a plane to get the measurement, might account for a 3.3 second 0-60 as well.

Clearly this vendor is a bit of a billy Bull(removed due to inappropriate language)

Might be worth emailing him to ask for a dyno to prove his figures.
