Jesus! That\'s pretty wrong.

Yuck.

YuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuckYuck.

Sort of represents all the mods that people to to FD\'s that I hate. All it needs is bug eye eBay headlights and it\'d be complete. Oh, and moar Vileside.


Blatantly yours, isn\'t it? I\'d suggest staying stock body next time.

To be fair, regardless of wether it\'s his or not, it\'s not that bad.

Exterior colour is nice, it\'s got early re-a bonnet which is quite cool.  If you paint the re-a wheel centres a different colour, maybe gold would suit the blue alot better.  Back end looks pretty cool, smooth with re-a light cover.

Interior is f.ucking dreadful but to be fair you could paint the red plastics a better colour, black or maybe a dark grey/silver colour.

Wouldnt take much to make it into a pretty cool looking FD.

Well thats what I think anyway. :D

Its paked up just up the road from me.  A friend of mine owns it and he hardly uses it.  She does look in ok condition and that reflects in the price.  The colour does stand out with nice set of re-amemiya wheels.  He dont really know much about these and works in the City so dont get much chance to drive her.

No  I am not trying to plug a motor and no its not blaintantly mine,,,,  I have a standard body 93 fd which I have had since 2007....so for gods sake stop assuming things...

I kept it that way as havent had the chance to spend due to engine problems but to be honest I prefer this cars body better,  if had spare cash I would get a bodykit similair to this.  I think it would look the best in black colour.  but thats my opinion

I think the car stands out more in this colour, obvioisly needs a good tidy up and interior refreshed, but other than that I like it, i guess we each have our own tastes... I am sure there is alot of people who think the standard fds luck too plain,,,, I have one and feel that way,, could be because when I park it next to done up ones its looks like plain jane....

i dont think they look bad at all on your car plus they are volks too which always helps :p

personally i think each car has its own personality and i love so many designs and styles but i wouldnt necessarily design my car the same...

you coming rotorstock si? havent seen you since last year!

forgot my 2p lol

i actually quiet like this car as jono pointed out its a great base to build on and as laeeq pointed out the condition is reflected in the price. The only bit that would stop me buying it pending compression results and further inspection would be "Car drives but is hesitating". i think that will stop any sale from going through unless they can prove the engine is solid. rx7s are so cheap at the moment the average person would just go for one that isnt hesitating.
