They waxed poetic of stock FD3s, and then I scrolled down some more!

From the article:

"Average value in #3 (Good) condition: $7100

Novel rotary powertrain aside, the first-gen RX-7 is a contrast to the later high-tech RX of the ’90s in that it’s relatively simple, easy to find, and cheap. But not quite as cheap as it used to be, it turns out. Average #2 (Excellent) values cracked five figures at the beginning of the year and went up from there."

This convinces me that its now worth getting my car resprayed and all the dings removed and rust spots fixed.

I kinda expect that in ten years the average SA will be 15-20 grand in "#2 condition"

Wait... something is fishy... Who is paying $9400 for a 94-04 mustang?!? no no no that's not right at all.

Great info, but - good Gawd, was that old beater SA the best they can come up with for a pic?? FB moldings (where they are not just missing), chrome (?) door mirrors, raggy old waffles...
Krikey....

;D

I need to find me one soon... I can't afford 5 figures.
I was literally thinking as I logged on that first gens are going to start appreciating soon.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice-looking 79 Limited on ebay right now with bids at $3500.
Bring A Trailer just popped a clean 57Kmi 79 GS for $4100, which was a bit of a deal I think. They are out there. You need to be ready to jump and willing to travel...

I personally do not want RX7s to gain value. Unless it were enough to pay off my mortgage or something I don't plan on selling either of mine because if they get that expensive to purchase I will not be able to afford another one day. It already upsets me that I will probably never own a 3rd gen...

Check out this recent BAT auction:

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1982-mazda-rx-7-8/

57k Mile GSL was bid up to 9K USD and the reserve was not met.!!

My GS is in similar condition (less documentation...) and I bought it with 62k Miles for $2500 USD around 4-5 years ago.
