I've got a 1985 Mazda Rx7 Gsl-Se. It was originaly white. It has been repainted red, There is absolutely no rust, Oklahoma car. Has metal sunroof painted same color as car. Has the 13b engine. Interior has been changed a little. Missing radio, i think needs new clutch it sometimes wouldnt disenguage and its like messed up now.. the engine runs good has like 170k on chassis but motor has been kept tuned and had stuff replaced. the door jambs are still white. original wheels. this thing is amazing on the outside interior needs cleaned a little. here are some pics... has clear and clean oklahoma title... what do you think its worth??? ide like to sell and wanna know what to ask since clutch may need replaced? i dont know it just wouldnt disenguage every now and then and now its like messed up...

 

$1500

 

Really? See i dont really know much about these cars or rotary engines.. Would anyone give me $850 for it like it is with the clutch issues? has december 06 tag and clean title

 

that was a typo sorry... I meant 950

 

You should post it in the For Sale section.

lol i paid 750 for my clean and running 83 seven. I know i got a good deal but that my be a little much.

 

You guys are lucky!! Here in New Zealand that car would be worth $6000 easy. Thats around $3000 U.S i think

 

But you have to remember this is one of those cars the Japanese accidently built with the steering wheel on the wrong side and exported them cheaply. The advantage of NZ is you can easily buy a JSpec and import it, FC's are so cheap it's not worth while getting an SA. I know the Kiwi $ has slipped with a female 'running' the economy, but not that much; try US$3.600.

As for the original question, it will be difficult to sell as an non-runner other than as a parts car. Most buyers at the bottom end of the market are students who want something cheap to get to college, and can not risk buying a car they can't try first as repairs can be expensive. May be you would be better off fixing it first and getting a better price.

 

In the local auto trader here some moron is trying to sell his for 1500 with no comp on rear rotor. I would recommend that you do fix it, it will increase the price quite a bit.

 

I paid $250 for a car like that 4 years ago. Paint wasnt quite as glossy. But buffed out fine. Needed trans work as yours did. Sold it for $1200 working and running 100%.

 

runs great just clutch has issues ide take $750

 

WOW...if I was closer I'd buy it today!

 

Okay Guys.... I Want $725 I Won't Take Anyless Or I'll Keep It... If Anyone Wants To Drive To Oklahoma And Grab It Come On! $725 Low As I'll Go! That Is A Steal....

Before I bought my 85 GSL-SE I checked the Old Car Buyers guide and it said $9,000 for a #1 GSL-SE...

I think most of us buy them at a much better value, but we still must all realize these are special cars that will become great classic's (If taken care of)

 

Check your clutch hydraulics. If it's trouble getting into gear, that's probably all it is and a cheap fix. It's hard to sell a car that's not functioning. I'm always amazed when someone sells what looks like a good car with some minor problem that keeps it from running and cuts the price in half.

 

i payed 1000 cdn for my GS! lol, where as ppl around here are asking upwards to 2.5 for the same car

 

i paid $2500 for my SE that i had paid 600 for shipping and about another 1000 getting it to run somewhat right and then had to sell it for 400 my wife about pulled my Glock out and shot me for sellin it for that lil! LOL
