It bin sitting in the guys drive way for 7 years got for 500 bucks it had $4500 worth of receipts in the glove compartment rebuilt trans, replaced all the weather striping a racing beat SP full dual exhaust on it and also the motor was rebuilt not long before that. Got it home put tires on it new baterry fuel pump and injectors cleaned the gas tank and it started right up.

I paid $1400 for my 1980, in 1989.

Untold thousands in basic maintenance, rebuilds, and restoration over the years, but many 10's of thousands of reliable miles in those years.

I paid $11,000 for my 1985 in 1985! Still have it, just turned 72,000 miles today, still all original including the paint and floor mats with the RX7 logo on them! Never seen snow, never been a daily driver, bought it just for fun!

I'm jealous of the original owners. One of these days I'll buy myself an RX-8 sight-unseen and drive it around for the next 25 years, keeping it clean and stock. Then I can be one of the awesome original owners.

Except, I don't know if I could resist installing an Esmeril Racing turbo kit.

my current daily driver is a replacement for the '75 808 i wrecked back in '05. it's an '84 base with the 13b i had in the 808. i gave $50 for the 7 without an engine. had it for about 2 yrs now. only thing i've had to replace on it since i started driving it is the front brake pads and the idler arm bushings. still plan on doing the disc rear conversion one of these days.

Cr4shT3st

paid 2200 for a 2nd owner, always-garaged-never-seen-snow '79 SA in 06/07. I think it was worth it, as rust-free cars are rare in the great white north...

Crazy Ivan

1500 CND for it and a parts car. Got it on the road for roughly another 1500 and then around 1000 for a new RB exhaust.

So now I have a rust free 85 fb with 148xxx kms on it (92xxx miles)

Bought my 1985 GSL-SE with 53k miles from the original owner in 1994 for $4500.00 (he threw in the bra, car cover and a couple hundred in new parts with it.) Plus he just had the dealer install a new FMOC on it the month before. Was my daily driver from 1994 to 2006, now it's "semi-retired" and is a dry road and sunny skies car.

Starfox07

$2800 just a few months ago.

About $400 in parts (clutch and stuff) since then.
