Check out this '89 TII I just got.

Guys,

Sold my '87 TII for $4500.00. Picked up this '89 TII with only 43,000 miles on it for (well.....a lot more than $4500.00). Anyway....it's in mint condition, all stock, all service records. Check the link below for some pics. . I'll post better pics. on that site on Sunday evening.

This car has some sort of cover over the cargo area with an additional piece of carpet that that basically forms a "trunk" in the hatch area. I'll post pics. of it on Sunday. Was this stock on all '89 TII?s

Not I. I said that a 89-91 TII in that condition is easily worth that much. I know someone who paid $8,000 for a mint 90 TII with 73K on it, and it's worth it.

I honestly believe that KBB, while useful as a bargaining tool has little relevance to actual "market" price for certain RX-7s.

Absolutely beautiful car man! I wouldn't pay more than $5000 for it myself but I'm cheap like that about getting deals on used cars Glad you had the money to keep the car in good hands though.

I found it on "autotrader.com". I was the only TII I found on there and it was the only one with anywhere near that few miles.

The guy also "gave" me a genuine Mazda car cover for it.

Forgot to mention that the guy "gave" me a genuine Mazda car cover for it, an RX7 video tape, all the manuals, and all the receipts. I'll put up some better pics. later.

The car is beautiful, and yes the cover was standard. When I purchased my '89TII new, it wasn't with the car, the dealer had to bring one in. Brackets were there, only the cover missing. You'll like it a lot better than the '87. Many changes on the engine/electrical to eliminate some earlier problems.
I do have a question if you read this. TurboII decals on the front fenders. It's hard to tell in the pictures, but they look like there are not there? They were dealer installed, along with the front lower air dam. Once again mine didn't have them when car was delivered either.

Very nice ride, but you could never get me to buy a car with automatic seat belts.
