GTUs
Did anyone see the GTUs on ebay. I'm glad to see that out of the 100 that were made some people kept them stock and in great condition. Check it out if you have not seen it.

WOW holy S**t!!! $12k for that car. Dude must be smoking some serious crack. Kevin got his with less miles from the original owner for cheaper. I would love to have a 90' back GTUs (the rarest of the rare) but not for that much money.

Buy it now price is $11,995

Again, not correct.

Actually, its an N/A tranny with a shorter 5th gear.

Must not have seen very many second gens.
PLENTY of second gens are not broken.
Overall, the ad is not bad, but its not completely true.

Yep 12k 
and did you read the info on it "bullet proof TII transmission" Well it did not come with one so either A: he has no idea what he is talking about or B: he put one in which means that it is not 100% stock

P.S. Super duper high blue book I just looked up is $4,120.00

what's with those ugly seats? they don't look like the black seats in my 89 GTU. they look more like what i've seen in an S4.
the front lip also looks to be of the regular NA kind, not the TII kind i thought they are supposed to have.

My friend picked up a broke down GTU for $300. We found out thogh that it wasnt really. The guy who sold it to him didnt know anything about rx7s. He said he blew a piston. The car had been sitting out in front of his house for years.

Not that I would ever pay the 12K(one of my friends wrote "my" other post)for a GTUs. Don't get me wrong....they are good cars and all....but 12K for an NA FC....nah. If you think about the 12K IS a good deal in the sense(THE ONE AND ONLY SENSE....don't jump on for saying this)....there was an 88 GXL....bone stock. It had been repainted. That's it. It had about 80K on the odometer. It went for $12,xxx. Now....tell how fuct up that is!!!!

And the spoiler lowers the Cd, making the car faster at top end.
