Question Jon's new whip

Last time i posted here i was not having a good time with my Monte.
It was honestly on its last leg. (Trans went, unsolvable oil/coolant leak, blown radio and other gadgets)

So i sold it for what i could get. (The person i sold it to is now feeling the same i went through and i feel bad. but they got what they paid for )

And i went out and got me this.
It's completely on the other side of the car spectrum. Not fast, BUT FUN!
48K original miles. all working perfect condition






the thing doesnt even got no pistons
Ill keep you all updated on this car for sure. I might not miss my monte to much but i sure miss you guys and girls.

Hi `Jon,
It's great to see you online with your update...I thought that maybe you were abducted by aliens or some wild ladies

Sorry 2 read about your Monte , but great that you found a low mile RX7...Is it a 88 ? It looks like it's in great condition.
(Never seen snow) ?

Wish U safe/happy/trouble`free miles ~> EnJoy

I like the new car , Definitely looks nice and clean. Good luck with the rotary engine in that though, I've heard they're pretty difficult when it comes to fixing things

To Space: Haha i wish i got abducted by some wild space ladies O.O and its a 91

To 77gp: Yeah that was taken right before i got rid of the Monte. I couldnt keep the Monte long, she was getting super jealous of the rx7

To MonteCarlSS: just gota keep the oil fresh and ill be fine. Its the kids that abuse them and hot shot everywhere that have problems. On the rx7 forums they have a 200+miles club with plenty of healthy rx7s.

To De0: thanks man

To 03jgMonte Thanks
