I've bought a few low mileage rx7s and they have all been fine. One had a bad engine but I got a great deal on that one. Yea I had to give them some love to make them even better but never any major problems. I've also bought a few high mileage rx7s but they are not as nice. Things broke quicker with all those miles. I like finding cars with great paint and interiors. They are out there for decent prices.
