Anyone recognize this FD?

Postby Learjet45 » Thu Feb 17, 2011 9:14

Found that while just looking around, didn't expect to find it (a new FD posting). I just wish I had the money for it. I could sell my 6 and probably wouldn't even have half the money for it :(

Anyone know the car?

Just curious. I would never be able to convince my parents to get me an FD, or anything else that's RWD or forced induction :p And there's no way I could afford it on my own. Not to mention that I don't know how to drive a manual. Just curious if anyone from the club recognizes the car.

Looks like a nice car at a very good price. Wish I had the money to pick it up as a side project. I've always loved FDs.

Looks like my cars twin! I don't know the owner tho.

I always cation people, while FD's are very fun cars, I don't believe they are for first time rotary owners, unless you have deep pockets and knowledge rotary specialist shop nearby (NOT a dealership or simple import mechanic).

Let's face it. We all want an FD because that's what Vin Diesel drove in F&F. He was a mechanic, probably the best in the world because it's Vin friggin' Diesel but what they didn't show was all the behind the scenes work that he had to put into the car.

I was wondering WTF those were too. Awful big for anal beads though, except for you, tsx.
