I love the interior, it looks like it is straight out of a concept car.

+1 on the styling,
but you can't see that while you're driving, and the Cosmo interior is cool^3

(plus at the point where I could afford a cosmo, rest assured there would already be a FD in my garage )

From Wikipedia
"Two engines were available, the twin turbo 13B-RE and the 20B-REW. The triple rotor 20B had 2 Liter (1962 cc) of displacement, which is quite large for a rotary powerplant. It produced 300 hp (224 kW) and 300 ft·lbf (402 N·m) with twin turbochargers. The JC series Cosmo set several firsts in Automotive history. Its 13B-RE and 20B-REW engines were the first series production twin sequential turbo systems to be offered for sale. The better known FD RX-7 didn't receive its 13B-REW engine until early 1992."
A-spec being the 20B, I imagine the 13B-RE was the B-spec or something like that.

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.
