RX7 FC or 300ZX Z31?

Looking for a beater to drive while the Z32 is parked during the weekdays... I'm looking at either an FC or Z31 NA. My bro has an FC NA and I love that car. Z31 would be staying with the Z heritage but under-powereed and heavier than the FC RX7.... what d'ya think?

Jorge,

You are on a Z Car forum and ask which car we would prefer :unsure:

I think everybody will go with a Z car. That's the way I voted.

Now, for a daily beater, I got a 1995 Ford Escort that gets 34 MPG for sale :grin: and that ain't no joke.

I don't know. I might go with the RX7 on this one. They do weigh less and have good power.

However, the RX7 is not a "good DD" A civic, accord, altima, maxima, etc would be a better DD, but if a RX7 is your choice, do it. IMO, DD should be very fuel efficient and have a long MyISAM life.

LoL... guess my version of a DD is pretty whacked out! I can't see myself driving a lil' Honda. But I'm definately leaning towards the '7 instead of the Z31. I mean... yuh I love the Z... but I heard the NA Z31 are really under-powered.

Rx7, the z31 NA is really sluggish.

Neither. Get a 1997 Nissan 200sx. Great mileage. Nissan dependability and it's still technically a 2 door sports car.

Dustin is down the right path. Get a 240. Too bad you didn't pick up Cons' 240 a few months ago. It was really nice.

Blah... I already owned a Sentra and a 240sx......

Civic hybrid with NOS would be killer.
