Get a 240, then get an SR15, then drift! lol

But seriously, man up and get the FD. I know that you know that you want to. Props for going for an Evo over an STi, but if you get it you'll still just be driving the same damn identical car as 50 other guys lining up at meets. Plus I am SURE that you'll miss the RWD. You'll be miserable not being able to drop the clutch or oversteer (easily). So yeah my vote goes to FD, just be sure you have the ability/connections/money to properly build and maintain it...

The only RX-7 I'd own would have a piston engine (turbo 4 or v8).

A brand new EVO would be nice but, I learned the hard way not to heavily mod my daily driver. Anyway, what's the point of buying a car new and then modding it? Then, you're warranty will be void. Mitsu is pretty strict about voiding warranties.

well situation is, if i do decide to get the evo, it would be a while before i can afford to mod it. i would be so broke from the payments for a bit. but when i do save up enough money, it will definatly be a crazy car. im hoping atleast.

FD, people who complain about the maintanance need to shut up.

I beat the shit out of mine and with regular oil changes and lookin over everything every once in a while I've got mine at 140k miles, no rebuild, and nice even compression still.

Those who speak usually dont know anything about it.
