Beautiful find!

Wish I could afford this beauty. Hopefully a true Rx7 lover will pick it up and take care of her.

That color combo was a rare one too. Usually that color came in maroon leather. But the gray cloth looks damn good too. I wonder what the milaege is?

I just saw that car on CL this afternoon. It'll be about an hour away from me when I get back to CA in a week!

they could send them my way. i'd take ANY RX-7 CA doesn't want. there is no smog check in the county i live in and OH has no vehicle inspection (unless its for a salvage title).

he said if he wasn't buying a house, he would have just bought it, so part B

its a GSL-SE with 73,000miles on it, if there is anything wrong, it will be due to an aftermarket part someone put on it.

my friends -SE has 253,000miles on it, it hasn't needed anything except normal maintenance....

The ad is still up. Thanks for the info, would really like to hear from someone who's actually seen it firsthand. About a week to go before I am home.

Any idea if the price is negotiable?
