Nothing like a stock Turbo Rx7. in red. I had the lowest mile AE (8500 miles) in the country a few years back. Regret the day I sold it. I had a chance to buy one like yours from 1991 and passed on it. They wanted $10k and it had 14k miles. I regret that too. lol

Too bad you passed on it at 10k, the values have gone way up when in excellent or concourse condition given that not many are left in their original condition, lower miles, and in perfect working order. This one has 60k miles, compression is in the 9s on both rotors, and while it isn't in concourse condition it is in excellent condition. It wouldn't take much to get it to the next level.

Original paint with the exception of the passenger front quarter panel touched up years ago and nose this past summer. The nose was touched up because someone was taking off pin stripping and got too close with the heat gun.

I'm not far from you at all. The car is in storage until next spring, so next year you can see it at the CCSU annual car show.

VERY Nice!!

Looks vaguely familiar, but even better than mine. I also have a touched up fender and front bumper cover. I've got a few bolt ons and wheels but have retained almost all the stock parts too.

95K and climbing slowly. It'll probably see about 2,000 miles a year.

Beautiful example. If my mileage was that low, I'd have taken it back to 100% stock.
