Well no car is perfect!! I am realistic and I am honest! With that being said here is the good and the bad.

The car was bought by me two years from the original owner... It is clean but it has a few issues that keep it from being a top money car.

The interior is perfect except for the seats. It has the original seats but are covered with cheap parts store seat covers.

Engine runs perfect perfect perfect, but she is an oil hog! It has not been a problem, I am sure the oil seals are getting weak, but the compression is great and she runs strong.

Lastly even though it has a relatively new paint job, she is popping up minor rust behind the rear wheels (where most RX-7s rust!!) You really don't notice it, but it is there.

Someone could spend a little and have a perfect car. It kills me that I have lost interest in her.... guess when I got screwed by the guy who painter her by keeping it for almost 1 year in his shop, I lost complete interest in the car.

Funny I bought my other car "cheap autocrosser" as a car to play with while this was in the paint shop.... I have fallen in love with "cheap autocrosser" and out of love with this one!

Someone can get a cool "old school" car!!

Like I said.... just being honest with you guys!!

I find your lack of comittment profoundly disturbing.

But your loss will be somone else's gain, as that's a sweet SA. Almost as nice as mine. Good luck with sale, be choosy about your buyers. Car karma is a bitchy lil thing, should some a-hole rice that baby out.

I know I know... I am not trying real hard to sell it. If it sells, good, if not, well OK. It's not like $3000 is going to make or break my financial situation!!!

Nah just bubbling... If I keep it, I will fix the rust and re shoot the area. SHould be an easy fix.

I turned down 3 callers today... I want the car to go to an enthusiast or no-one!!
