Rx7s are as reliable as their drivers. Don't overheat it, don't remove the undertray without having some sort of funnel to get the radiator it's air, don't abuse it and you'll be fine. My car has 130k miles on it, it's a turbo engine, the turbo is fine, the engine compresses perfectly and I have a minor 2nd gear synchro problem that is dealt with by shifting less forcefully on average driving.
I autocross my car, I drag my car, I abuse it sometimes for fun.
Yesterday I drove 100 miles each way to my home town and to drop my girlfriend off at her house. The only stop was her house, and the gas station. I do this at least once a month, and I make the 100 mile drive about once a week. I also drive it around town.
The cars are perfectly reliable, just take care of it like you should an 18 year old car and don't be an idiot and it's all good.
Change oil, replace exhaust, replace filters, replace hoses, check your wiring and the car is perfectly fine. Hell their usually fine as long as the oil has been change religiously.
