Both look good for that age. The mazda especially doesn't look all that dated..

The RX7's buzzer would be, for me, a total deal breaker. God, how annoying.

Total agreement on the buzzer.

I'm surprised the driver didn't even mention it in a negative way. If you are driving that car and are too stupid to keep an eye on the tach you've got issues!

funny, I always find the FC and the 924 quite similar looking.

actually, to me, the 924 looks like the 1991 240sx S13, FC RX7, and Gen3 MR-2.
of course, the 924 looks better than all 3 of them :)

Just note that the 924 came out first out of all those cars mentioned, ie they're japanese 'copies'. ;)

I don't have pics, but the old old 200sx in America (the one with the V6 option) has an almost identical taillights to the 924.

oh, speaking of which, the old Supra looks like 924 too :)
