your friends fc looks really nice, he needs new wheels though. black is one of the best colors for the fc imo.

VERY clean FC, is he planning on doing any other mods to it? Wheels look great IMO.

i can vouch for this car, i've seen it in person. very very clean car, with ultra low mileage.

engine is in pristine shape, tested it at 120psi across both rotors and 6faces.
doesn't consume oil excessively, doesn't burn coolant, idle is rock solid at 750rpm.

by far, it's the most clean and mechanically mint FC i've come across in my life.

btw jason, did the owner ever get that problem with the brake light warning thing fixed?

thats not a rotary related problem, its an electrical problem. any decent shop should be able to fix it

we went to bestbuy and got a new deck for the 7 and the guy took 1 full day to rewire the deck because apparenlty the wiring was all messed up and we tried to get it rewired at a local shop but the problem still persists
