A good price is anything lower than what you think the car is worth to you. I personally think you should wait around for an EFI 13b FB.

2500 AUD wouldn't be a bad deal at all here in the states..... be it really does depend on condition. Honestly I'd probably be inclined to pass less for a car that has been bastardized with body kit and wing, unless I really liked the kit.

Look for rust in the rear tire wells, and under the rear seats/bins. How much milage has it seen? Do you have any pics?

That's easy to say, but there aren't too many SE's out there. Not only that, but there are advantages to the S1 RX-7, they tend to be the lightest of all 1st gens because they had no power options, most didn't have sunroofs or air conditioning. Plus they look neat and retro with the metal bumpers.
