New to the scene

Hey guys, names Aquille and I'm really interested in getting my hands on a mazda fc rx7 and even have one lined up (a few actually) but one in particular I can basically get my hands on within a 2 month period, so I want to just ask...what do I need to be looking out for? Deal breakers and all I'm very new to rotary engines so help me know what im getting into though I'm still fully going for it lol.

Read the 2nd gen frequently asked questions sticky in the 2nd gen section. This is the non technical section.

with the Rx7's the difficulty of repair is interior, exterior, engine, and then chassis/drivetrain. its really easy to change brakes, or even an engine, but its difficult to make the interior perfect

look for all the usual stuff, rust, poorly repaired crash damage, leaks (oil, coolant, they all leaked). it should start and run like a normal car, and drive like a normal car.

anything wrong should be reflected in the purchase price
