Imagine how I feel Eric, he tempts me with a deal everyday! I could sell the forester and buy a well built already done rx7 with ls swap and have money left over for a winter car.

you'll save money but you'll have to do extra labor for the custom swap. those fb rx7's are cheap and light but they are old too 1979-1985 . the interior, sound, electrical, body usually need a lot of work unless you just don't care about the little stuff. fc's are old too. A young single man like yourself, you'll probably want the fd and those swaps start at $15k, still not bad though for how light and fast they are. now if your married like me then just get the ugly car and go fast.

Ryan, I like your year RX7, not too old but more of a sleeper. However i do like the fd's :)
