RETed will become famous soon enough
I dunno why anyone would trade down for a 1st gen (even though it's a GSL-SE), unless they were feeling nostalgic?

Rack & pinion versus recirculating ball steering
IRS versus live rear axle

Sure, the 1st gen is lighter, but the FC is just a better package overall.

The FC 13B engines were basically bulletproof versus anything that came in a 1st gen.
Mazda really worked out the kinks out of the 13B with the FC engines.
