I haven't been able to drive my X since last April. Last April. Damn, that's a long time without my zoom!

Ever since I saw the first Mazda RX7 back in '79 I wanted one. Considered "the poor man's Corvette", it's a hot little 5 speed, two seater with a Wankle Rotary Engine and built for Zoooooom! I've often wondered if I married my husband out of love, or out of love for his '79 RX7. His was the first RX7 I ever drove - brushed silver with a black interior...
