Unhappy Problem - IMSA RX-7

I thought this day would never come but...

I need to find a new home for my RX-7. I fell out of love a long time ago and after six years of trying to convince myself that I will come around I just haven’t.

My problem is this:

How do I get this great RX-7 into an enthusiasts hands?

I’d love some suggestions on how to handle this.

Car is located in British Columbia, Canada

Pics if your interested:

Thanks,
Michael

I would start by posting an ad in the classifieds section. chances are if a member here picks it up, it'll be very well taken care of and enjoyed. shame you have to sell it. i would buy it, but i'm having a hard time affording my own repairs. good luck with the sale!

That is such a hard question to answer... I feel like my lack of love is going to let this car go too easy!

But if I put a number out there... say 6k...

Hey 81WideMariah...

Too dark at the moment to go grab some... I have a few off angles from car shows.

I will get some new ones up tomorrow.

Cheers.

The body is made of fibreglass. That includes the front spoiler, all four fenders and the rear wing. She runs really good. Doesn't have a massive engine just a smooth street port 12A with a Racing Beat header and full exhaust.

I remember when this car was either up for sale a few years back, or you just had the same pics posted. Beautiful car!!! Good luck with sale. I wouldn't take less than 6k.
