Like the blacked out rims, but I do not like the spoiler that much. A bit too ricey for my taste, but its not too bad.

you could go for a 3rd gen RX7, the twin turbo one is probably all you could find in north america. not sure on prices but it would be a wild thing to drive

A good condition FD can run from $9k to $18k, depending on condition, mods, etc. It's hard to find an unmodified one, so find something that was professionally tuned and check it out thoroughly including compression and AFR if you can. |

A lot of guys ditch the twin setup for a BB single, more power, more reliable, and pretty good spool. Not too many NAs, but there are a few 4 rotors and RE Amemiya does NA 20Bs in some of his.
The engine that came stock in every 3rd gen RX7 was the 13B-REW, 2 rotor twin turbo 1.3 litre wankel. Power output between 225 for early models, and 280ish for late. |

LOVE the rims and the wing I like. Not flashy / ricey really and designed for downforce. Not a big fan of the stickers though...
And you better have engine upgrades!

I did that for a meet so i had to kind of represent the sponsors so eh~ Engine ups, Painted all covers and caps red, just normal Head, intake exhaust, test pipes, etc etc... the sound it makes is pheonominal! and for selling purposes... all stickers should be oFF I think i might have to purchase a NISMO rear wing and do it that way because the GT wing brings too much controversy... but then I did plan fo track use so... On top... I am also thinking about a E39 540I sport Those are monstrous and very very classy Add a couple splurges like aftermarket nav and dvd they can be very good as a gran tourer and I can give that to my mother and keep the Z... then when I go out to party and bring loads of girls with me then I borrow it from my mother ... Just a thought that came across that i thought i'd share lol |

$22,000? You could get a buttload of fine performance vehicles for that price! RX-7's, E46 M3's, S4's, 911s not so much, hell, even a 300ZX
. Just search autotrader.com: I'd help you search but I don't know your ZIP code. A 540i is a good idea, but most of them come with nav already. And I like that idea of giving your mom the Z...  That's a great color, though, and those black wheels look terrific.
