How many miles are on you FC?
Just bought my 89' GXL with 79,990 and turned over 80K on the way home. I was looking for an 89' to 91' N/A for about 3 months in San Diego and about all I saw were 'verts. This one was very, very clean so I coughed up $3250 (only down from the $3500 asking price, but still...) and am very happy with it (thereby avoiding the $400 plus car payment I would have for an RX8 that I wanted sooo badly... My 86' has about 155K and still runs very strong. Just putting a new waterpump and doing the basics getting it ready to sell. My previous 83' had about 210k when the heater hose blew along with a failure of the low coolant buzzer and trashed the engine. That one was still running and idling very well when the hose blew. I love my rotaries... I have had or have; R100, RX2, RX4, Rotary Truck (current project...), 3 RX7's, Cosmo (the funky US model... which I inherited and which I will sell very cheap for parts! good ribcase 5 speed, Engine was good before it sat for several years.. now? who knows???) Anyway, back to the topic... I see many 7's at the bone yard that died an obviously violent death when that had well over 200k, so they were running up to then.
i have a 87 na wikth 259009 to the date 40 k on rebulid 30 k on tranny rebuild only problem is oil pan gasket bad, mine smokes like a mother f@!#$@ because of the oil leak... the good news is i will have that fixed on the 12th!!! yea!!
Purchased two years ago with 143,000 on it, as of today 180,198. I just put in a fresh motor and turbo and re did all the vaccum and fuel lines and almost everything else in the engine bay at 178,780. ('87 Turbo)
86' GXL with 196,000 on her! Driven VERY hard daily and especially hard on the weekends. I put 100+ miles on it everyday. Oh yeah, the engine was new at 175,000 just before I bought it. This thing is a champ.
88 SE, 160K on most of the body (small accident a few years back, nothing major) and 2.5K on motor after TII swap
Suspension and all bushings have about 10K on them. ZERO rust outside, and very little underneath (rails are perfect). Age does catch up though, a section of fuel line is corroded and will be replaced next week.
