Support a Dad's Passion: RX-7 for Javier

What’s up everyone — my name’s Javier avalos, I’m a 29-year-old Mexican-American dad from Arizona. I’m a full-time mechanic, full-time husband, and full-time dad of two wild boys: one is 5 years old and thinks he’s an Avenger, and the other is a 10-month-old baby who’s built like a tank with no chill. My wife? Absolute dime. Smoking hot, spicy Latina who’s held me down through all the ups and downs.

Last year, I did something huge: I bought us our first home. My wife always dreamed of owning her own place, and I made it happen. So now that her dream is checked off… it’s time for mine.

Let me introduce you to the Mazda RX-7 FD — the beautiful, temperamental, triangle-powered legend that’s haunted my dreams since I was a teen wrenching in the garage with bandaids on my knuckles. It’s loud. It’s impractical. It leaks feelings. And I want it more than I want peace and quiet.

Problem is, these cars ain’t cheap anymore. Back in the day you could find one for a decent deal. Now? Clean FDs are pushing $75K like it’s normal. And me, being a regular hardworking dude with a mortgage, bills, and two kids eating snacks every 11 minutes — I can’t just drop that kind of money on a JDM icon without the IRS asking questions.

But then I saw someone raise over half a million bucks for saying the worst possible thing online… and I thought: damn, maybe the internet has jokes — but also, maybe it has hope too.

So here I am, putting my pride aside and shooting my shot. I’m asking for help — whether it’s $5, $20, or just a share — to help a regular Mexican dad get the dream car he’s worked years for. No scams. No fake sob story. Just a guy with busted knuckles, a big heart, and a dream that goes brap brap.

If you’ve ever had to sacrifice your goals to build a life for your family…

If you’ve ever hustled nonstop just to give your kids what you never had…

If you’ve ever stared at a car and thought, “One day…” — then you get it.

I appreciate every single one of you for even reading this far. And if this actually works, I promise to take the dopest photos, make the funniest content, and never shut up about it until the engine blows (which, let’s be real, could be immediately).

Thank you — from one broke dreamer to another.

Let’s make it brap.
