Review

This is RX-7 A-Spec is my favorite of all RX-7's available.
It feels and looks great. My downforce settings may be too
high but it worked for me. This car handles great. It never
gave me a problem with turns. This car looks great even w/o
the [R] body. It only comes in a few colors but it's a
definite eye-catcher in bright yellow.

I wasn't an RX-7 fan til' I played Gran Turismo and picked
the A-Spec version. At first, it's a challenging car but
once you get used to it, the RX-7 A-Spec won't disappoint
you.
