I had said the same thing in "Post A Pic Of Your Ride" I think it was...but umm, I guess I was wrong?

I didn't know they apparently made FC2S's...I was POSITIVE they were all FC3S's...

Well I wasn't able to find the web page, So i'm without proof I guess i'm wrong, It made sense the way they explaned it was in 1983 the started the Rx-7 gen two project, cooly named Project P747, then to protypes were named FC1S, and the 1985-1989 were the FC2s, and the 1990-1992 were the FC3s. But Like I said before I can find the web page, The guy may have been talking out his ass. It sounded resanable.

hmm, i've never heard that one before. i've always know it as:

82-83 = SA22C
84-85 = FB**
86-91/92 = FC3S
93-current = FD3S

i'm probably wrong on the years for the SA and FB since i haven't done much reading up on em.

thanks for clearing that up man. i know that there weren't any FC's made in '92 but they were still sold then until they released the FD as far as i know.

86-88 = S4 (Series 4)
89-91 = S5 ( ^ 5)

They are all FC3S. convertibles I have been told are FC3C, but I never researched it.
