1986 RX7 GXL a good buy???





no A/C, needs new radiator, engine is fine, no audio. odometer reads 86k but broke some time ago...no idea what it should be, but the engine seemed fine. non turbo. $500 okay?

can you tell by the pictures? cuz the guy says it's an 86 because it has 4 lugs, but is registered as an 87? maybe he meant registered as an 87 gxl if there weren't gxl's in 86...

$500 for a running '7 isn't a bad price. Expect you'll be doing a rebuild soon. If that's not the case, so much the better, but... expect it now, and it won't surprise you.

If you need a radiator, PM me. I have one I can ship your way cheap.

without factory A/C that would be a BASE model... not even a Luxury Coupe (the only other 86-87 that came with 4 lug wheels).

GXL and Sport models all had 5 lug wheels regardless of year.

rear spoilers were available as dealer installed options for all 86-88 models.

Again 4 lug wheels would never ever be found on a sport. Only on a Luxury or SE or a base.
