Rexton Rx7 Ownership Experience

Exterior Got my RX7 around two back. Its a real head turner on the road. Great looks.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) It has the best features. Loved the easy access feature. The moment you take the key out from ignition, the seat rolls back and lower for the driver to go out or enter easy. The memory function brings not only the seat to the drivers preferred position, but also adjusts the two side rear view mirrors accordingly.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is smooth and picks up very fast. From standing still state if you press the accelerator, for about 0.5 second nothing happens but post that it picks up like a rocket. so one needs to be careful while managing that momentum. One thing which could be improved is the roar from the engine when you accelerate from a lower speed. Engines roars and it feels like the vehicle is racing in first gear. I tried doing that with manual peddle shift as well but no luck. But if you release the accelerator peddle after racing a bit, the engine feels like butter while maintaining the speed. This confuses me quite a bit. I am suspecting that the roaring noise comes from radiator fan. Shown it to the service station guy as well, but not sure how well are they trained. I hope by the time I reach 10k km, these guys will be trained enough to address my queries. Also surprisingly Break Drum broke down in just 12000 K.

Ride Quality & Handling Smooth and terrific pick up except the first 0.5-1 second. Handling is almost like sedan. I have taken narrow U turns in busy road and no issues. Handbrake is little far off, as if the co-passenger is going to apply that. The car front dives a bit while appling brakes but not a major issue.

Areas of improvement Need to have more service centers and customer care.
