The guy has no clue. He did no research prior to posting this. Don't you like how people are always posting things for other people.

yeah i saw it earlier thought it had been rolled back the numbers aren't lined up right but I'm too picky. that a great find though i like how he can't figure out how to open the hood. and the comment about the last rotary engine built. some people don't know what they got. i bet she doesn't know how do drive a stick and thats why she doesn't want it.

The numbers arent lined up because its about to roll over to 10 000.

Its definately a nice car, however as said above the guy doesnt know **** about RX-7s.

1985-the last year of the rotary???

fancy options:
reclining seats
tachometer
trip odometer

..full console?
....door map pockets and full door trim?

I mean common, this car wasnt built in the 50s...
my favorite option is : heater/defroster

Seriously Im surprised he didnt put rear view mirror and turn signals as options..

Seems like he made a note of everything in the car then called it an option...lol


Shady seller aside...if its as clean as in the pictures, someones gonna get themselves a badass nice GSL-SE.

Listing errors aside, that's the most pristine 7 I've seen in many moons. Well worth the current bid price. If the mechanical are as good as the cosmetics, it's basically a new car.

If our cars are going to appreciate in value and gain any respect in the collector community, this on should go for 10-12k.

What would you do with the car thou....I'd be afraid to drive it, I'd want to keep the miles as low as they are.

I hope someone doesn't buy it and use it as a daily driver, and in a couple years it'll have over 100,000...that would suck

Holy shi....................Man, I wish that car was local. I would ask if I could come over and beat off over that one!!!!!!!!!!! No seriously.........That would truly be a good collector piece for someone that really appreciates a RX7. I hope who ever winds up with that car, will give it lots of love.............

i really like how the needles are still orange. most i've seen are very sun faded and almost a transparent yellow. the car still has the original tires. that amazing. i'm eager to see pics of the engine bay. i did notice though, that the gear shift **** is starting to fade common, as it were, even in garaged cars with 9K.

I would agree with the speedo comment. Door panels are still red, tail lights look perfect, and those look like the oem pirelli p6 tires too.

anyone remeber that one gslse with 994 miles, selling for 30 grand on ebay?? wonder what happened to that? "This could be that sleeper street racer that someone is looking for ar just a very nice daily driver" i almost died when i read that in the item descripton. If someone cuts that car up they ought to be shot.

I just ran a CarFax on this car and its a blank.....

No information at all and never any posted miles.....

That along with the ODO being not quite right???

Its not just off the 2 is too far down and the 2nd 0 is way too far up....

I think its been cracked!

(15 years in the dealership world I have a little experience with this)

Something about the car dosen't ring the bells to me.
Look at the fuel gage is empty and the low on fuel light is not on???
Probably the fuel gage don't work??
But that picture show the car running. I could be wrong and just making excuses since I can't afford the car But with that low milage you will think everything should be in proper working conditions but again is 22 years old.

Very clean vehicle. However I'm with others about the odometer. It is reading that way either from the odometer being broken or because it was tampered with.

I don't think anyone that's going to pay 12K+ for the car is going to douche it up... I hope anyway.

Don't dismiss the car because the lister is a complete dumbass. Sure all he needed to say was "GSL-SE" with leather seats... isn't that the only option they had?

If I had the money to spend on something that would just sit around sans the occasional outing... I'd love to have it.

And +1 on the odo being strange, though I do think it's just that it's about to roll 10k...

Sold for $8800 and that is a deal. I paid about $8 for mine on ebay last September and it had 29K miles.... but 9K is just sick!

I've had two silver SEs in the last few years.... both also low miles (the other one had 24K on it)... and both from nothern Michigan. To see this car, also silver, SE, low mi, and Northern Michigan... unbelievable coincidence or what!


Quick Reply: And i thought my FB had low miles......
