Default Your Thoughts On Mazda RX-7's?

As above guys i need an honest opion on these
cars.

Im in abit of a dilema (sp) at the mo as all ive really
owned is fords and vauxhalls really.

Ive always liked them and now im getting in a postion
ie financally and insurance wise where i can start looking
past S2's and cav turbos.

Any advice will be great.

Cheers matt.
