From the article I believe the owner plans to have it back up and running in 1 month. when people talk about modding burning a hole in the wallet this takes it literally...

Same here! I never took it seriously until I witnessed my friend's modded G8 catch fire. Now, I carry a mini fire extinguisher in all my cars. Only $14 bucks at Walmart.

Aren't those turbocharged rotary engines of the RX-7 notorious for their tendency to break down?
