My first car was a 1986 Mazda RX-7. What a pile it was. It all started when my father and I were discussing the rotary and I said, ya know Id love to work on one. Sure enough we passed one for sale for 500 that day. Primer gray, no exhaust (rotaries are quite possibly the loudest engine on earth with only a big gaping exhaust port and no valve) and a heap of other problems. So Dad stopped and talked to the guy, drove it around the neighborhood, and we went home. The next day while I was at school he went and picked it up, having bought it the night before unbeknownst to me, and when I got home there she was. It may have been ugly as sin, but to me it was the most beautiful car on earth. Sadly he passed away before we finished it, and I totaled it 3 years later. Ive had more than a few since, including a mint 89 convertible and a mint 90 gxl, but I didnt love any of em as much as that ugly primered beast.
