I had two first gen RX-7's, and the problems with each cars were a result of how the previous owners treated (or lets say abused) the cars. I will not buy another used sports car again. I always wished that I could have bought my '84 GSL-SE brand new. That was the best of the 1st gen RX-7. Not that I wouldn't have driven her hard, but I would have taken care of her as they should. :D
