28,000 on the engine and newer turbos sounds like it would be decently reliable. the price is good too for a car in that condition. If I were in the market for an FD, that would certainly be one that I would inquire upon

Go for it!

It's a good deal, but when you say you don't know what to look for in an rx-7 that's scary. Before you try convincing your dad it'd be a good idea to read through the stickies uptop and also hang out in this section so that you know what you're getting yourself into. Just my opinion not trying to be harsh.
