Also why is it that ads for rotaries always attract munters who have no money, can't spell and are generally wastes of genetic material?


Because that is your typical rotary owner.

The first one I like. The rear looks a bit off, but I think the front guards work well. Gives it a bit of an FC look.

The second one is good EXCEPT for all those gauges! Especially the monster tach!
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

The Porsche kits were naff in the 90's and still are now.

The second one is pretty ugly too.

Mine was white, lowered on 13x7 Hotwires with the front spoiler from the RX7 race series(at the time)and the old school rear wedge wing on the back.

Black Pin striping and bump strips removed so the whole car was white.

Exactly how I wanted it. Mint.
All these kits do nothing for the car except detract from the sexy curviness.

Don't buy the first one. There is a reason why the owner is having trouble getting rid of it. :)
