Video: Zero F*cks Were Given When Building this RX7 – TUNED

Sunday, February 17, 2013 10:16

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

When we met Corbin Goodwin in the hills of Malibu while shooting the Audi RS5 and Lexus LS460 reviews, we knew we had to put a camera on this kid. His car was the mechanical embodiment of his entire personality; smart, function-over-form, and quick as can be. His first-generation RX7, a project for the last two years, is the absolute pinnacle of ghetto engineering gone right. From the paper, handwritten gauges to the near-straightpipe exhaust, tendency to oversteer and possibly the worst interior we’ve ever seen on a (running) car, this RX7 is what rat rodding is all about, just performed on an import. And though it looks terrible, it’s a thrill ride we’ll never forget, and a testament to youthful ingenuity that it is more reliable and dialed-in than many of the big-dollar builds we filmed. Hit the jump for a special episode of Tuned. **Updated with Corbin’s Build Thread**

and if you feel like browsing a bit he has some killer photos taken from/of the car during sevenstock a few months ago. He’s actually quite good as a car photographer, I assist when I can.
