Ok here is my dilemma should i keep my WRX or sell it and get a JDM right hand drive 2nd generation, series 5, RX-7 turbo II.

I love my WRX i love the fact that every morning i know my wrx is going to start up. i love the look on peoples faces when i dust them off the line, the grip is amazing, and i love the lines of the car, those fender flares really give the car a distintive look. But.....

My my dream car is a 2g rhd RX-7, the first car i ever had was an RX-7, i work for a year at weinerschitzel to buy this car, and a week after i had it breaks it would not rev past 3000 rpms and then it just stopped working all together. I loved that car though, I learned so much working on it. Then it met its demise on a one lane dirt road, i came around a corner too fast got the rear end kicking, only to see a truck coming straight for me, i spun out into a pile of granite bolders. Anyways back to the subject

I owe 13000 on my wrx, my minimum payments are 450 a month, my insurance is 300 dollars a month. I can get a rhd RX-7 for less the 6000 shipped getting it dot approved will take some time but won't be hard, insurance for a rhd RX-7 will be 250 a month, but thats pritty good for jdm car, or so i'm told. so any suggestions, or incite?
