It seems like the car that rear ended the rx7 took all the abuse in that wreck. The *** of the rx7 really doesn't look all that bad in comparison to the hood of the other car.
I hate seeing people loose their "babies" like that but that's one less ricer on the road. (Even though that was one seriously clean ricer)

Holy ****, a running SVX!!! Now, that's a rare sight!
Last time I checked the RX7 isn't a rice car, especially in close to stock form, that one looked clean as hell and it was just begging for an LS swap.
He was just sitting there because there was a ******* parade of ricers coming the other day and were too ******* douche-y to let the Bronco II make his left turn he waited at least 2 minutes to do. I'm sure the guy in the Mazda thought he would eventually turn and since it technically IS illegal to pass on the shoulder, he was doing the right thing instead of passing illegally like 99% of people on the road (me included) do. He wasn't even sitting there in neutral with no brake lights on (assuming its a 5 speed), he had the brake lights illuminated the whole time so that's not even a factor. The guy in the Lincoln was just not paying attention and might've been traveling too fast for that particular road, but I wouldn't know that.
I am really impressed at how well the RX7 held up compared to a 2+ ton turd slamming into it at a dead stop. Crazy luck that the kid was filming those shitbox Honda's from that angle, too bad you didn't get to see the actual impact but oh well, that dude was PISSED!

Damn that sucks. I'm not a fan of ricers at all, but I don't mind RX7's, and that was a pretty clean one at that. The guy's response is justified, I probably would've been more unglued! Looks like he took great care of it.

I wouldn't consider the RX7 rice. I've always loved the way they look and see a lot of them at autocross and road racing events. His was clean too. Not sure where the word 'rice' is coming into the picture.
Unless you think he was with the group of morans that was leaving the parking lot.
heh

If I could fit into one, Ide have an RX7. I f'in love those things. Im sure that guy put money and work into that car. Even if he didnt, Im sure he loved it. Im sure a lot of people would say to me "Its just a thirdgen firebird."...but look at all I went through with this car. It means more to me than just a car.
If someone hit me like that...Ide be in jail. No question. I will go absolutly ballistic if this car gets wrecked due to some a-hole not watching where he's going. Having it on tape is insane. Be really funny if the kid taping kept his big mouth shut, and the guy that rear ended the RX didnt know it was taped. haha. He tries to lie about it. Oh yeah? Check this out! haha

Soooo many fart cans....
The other thing with the RX7 is a lot of them require work. My one buddy has one and is always wrenching on the thing to keep it running, bit of a high strung car. That guy would have darn well invested a lot of blood, sweat and tears in that car, only to have a moron in a sedan hit him.

Wow, I didn't expect that, lol. That guy was PISSED and definitely illustrated the diversity of the 'f' word (what's that movie? 
). It looked like a nicely done RX-7 and he was sitting there on the brakes and stopped way before he got hit. That sucks, and if anybody did that to my car, I'd snap.

I started the rice comment because it is a MAZDA and we all know the lead of our favorite movie drove a red one that ran 9's 
I do like the cars and think this one in particular was done well but lets face it, it was lumped in with the rest of those ******* Martians so it gets labeled rice in my book.

But getting hit in the rear is not like getting hit up front. Up front, you can unbolt, and replace most anything without anyone knowing a thing. Problem with the back, is that the quarter panels are an integral part of the structure... fixing two quarter panels, especially if they're buckled is hard to get perfect, and then you know your car is always truly %$@#ed up underneath. It's just never the same.
