Talking good deal?????

look what i bought for $300 and i think that's a mariah wide body kit.. can any 1 make sure.. i looked at the mariah body kits and looks just the same.. plus the rims and tires r brand new.. so no matter what i'm getting more than my moneys worth.. i guess that's what friends r for lol... plus a it has a better running engine than mine lol.... but i'm still putting all these parts ( body kit, rims, tires) on my rx-7.. tell me what u think

can't go wrong for that price. If it runs better than your current one why not put your time and efforts into fixing this one up? Hows the rust on it?

Hard to tell from the angle, but it may be. Where's the front end? It also looks like you have your rear rims and tires where your fronts should be and vice versa, lol. Of course it was a good deal. Seems like you can't buy anything these days for $300. What model 7 is it/engine? Fix it up the way you want to and I'm sure it'll be a sweet car.

Any running 1st gen is probably worth about $300, so I'd say you did well.

and i thought the same things about the tires but it's just how the back flares out just a little more than the front ones does.. same size tires.. but i think i'm going to go with some wider tires on the back when i get some more money/ time lol..
