Phoenix7 will become famous soon enough
The RX7 is a high-maintenance car. Period...if you're the type to clean your guns/paint supplies/ after every use, or something similar then you should look into an rx7 with well-documented rebuild.

The reason you see so many with rebuildt motors is because most people don't maintain their cars properly or assume the 7 (and 8) is like any other car, it's not. It requires oil changes every 2500 miles, fluids topped off, plugs and wires on schedule, etc., etc.

Do a lot of research before jumping into an RX7 because a clean, fast car can have bad coolant seals, failing OMP, inconsistent oil changes....Don't wanna freak you out but it's not a regular car.

When you add a turbo to the mix you have air/fuel ratios to worry about, boost-creep, cooling, timing...

Which makes perfect sense. They are sacrificing safety either way. lol
