Your old GSL-SE looked just as clean, or even cleaner. Not to mention the prettier silver.

Why would you sell it, if your just going to replace it for another?

Thanks man, yes the silver one looks better and had 30,000 miles! however, this one has also low miles with almost 32,000!

the reason I sold the other one was because it was too clean to just drive around or modify it,so it wasn't comfortable...and I got it for a great price and sold it for a VERY GREAT price. Now that I came across this clean one I hope I can just keep her on the side

Hey Directfreak just saw your video, damn your 7 is a beast! see now if I wanted to modify an rx-7 that is the way I'd go with the cosmo motor and all...but I just can't do that to one with such low miles ya know

Dammit man I'm jealous as hell. Your car is awesome. I want a white or light beige se with super low miles and in mint+ condition. I would not feel uncomfortable driving it. I love my mint+ 95 but I gotta have the se. dammit

It's really hard to find clean ones with low miles but I found the silver one from Ohio and paid for shipping...but luckily this new one was like 15min away from me...

Haha thanks dude, this one is my third one..my first one wasn't bad either, it had like 120,000 miles on it but it was a 85 gslse white with brown leather. It obviously wasn't as clean as the last two but ran awesome and was also all original...would have been a great daily driver

I've also owned a 89' GTU red and a 93' silver with burgundy interior...but I gotta say first gen SE rules! I honestly believe the first gen, especially the SE's are built better and are better quality than any other rx7 gen. IMO

I gotta disagree with you guys respectfully. I have not had one problem with my 95. It's put together very well. Being a turbo charged rex, the engine may not last near as long but it is a gem. But I still want a low mile GSL-SE.
