I go with the RX, def needs some work but would be a far better project car IMO, if yer not gonna dump a ton of douhg into either though then go witht the Soarer ...

[calepeters]

what kind of work do you think, and what would you consider huge amounts?

[pinoyhero]

Clean up for one, and then some engine work, I'd say anything over 4K or more would be a huge amount (close to 50% of the car's purchase price)

[tom_9109]

The rx7 wins on price, fun to drive and better performance
The soarer wins on reliability and cost to maintain.

RX7's need a lot of attention but definitely are a better all around performer.

[calepeters]

oh dear ya 4k is preeeetttyyy expensive and how much do you think to maintain the soarer?

[calgarys_finest]

i depends what you want from the rx7 i dont think it will need 4 k if you just want a good car. if the car actually have 34k on it then the engine shouldnt need to be touched for a while and if you dont mind the dmg on the front and rear quarters it wont need any work.

soarers are always a nice car but they are a luxury car and unless your gonna mod them they will be quick but definatly not fast.

gl on your purchase if you have any questions feel free to pm me.

I would pick different cars all together.... If you think 4k is exspensive for cleaning up a car , you will be completely fuggered if something goes wrong with eather of them.

[Sorath]

neither, jdm cars are just trouble... if i had to pick though id pick soarer

Are you sure about that??



I was thinking you'd be leaning more towards a van with FREE CANDY painted on the side?

Sorry I had to..:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


Since Jaymez has pointed out, if your saying 4K is pretty expensive costs to maintain/fix, then Soarer for you my friend...if your gonna join the JDM trend, you cant be JDM cheap with a empty JDM wallet

Exactly. There are other cars in your price range that won't cost as much to fix if things go wrong.

[Destinova403]

id go with the soarer myself...

RX-7s are really nice cars... but im ignorant to rotaries and from what i do know they require a lot of attention to keep them running great.

the soarer will give you a decent amount of performance, not as fun to drive as the RX-7 but overall i think it would be a better option as a daily driver.

from what i can see... the body is in better shape as well...

[InLoveWitRSX]

if you know how to maintain a rotory, then get the rx-7, otherwise I would choose the soarer no doubt.

Here's an interesting thread on JDM rx-7's
