when you set the selling price, just pretend you are a buyer, ask yourself how much you would pay for the car as a reasonable price. then start from there to adjust it a little. that is rule I follow. too high, no buyer. too low, you lose money.

What kind of *7 rx-7 is it. Does it have a little spoiler on the back and five lug wheels? Or does it have 4 lug wheels? and how good is the interior and exterior condition. Also, Does it say GXL anywhere on the body?

even an 87 base that runs good with 70,000 can be sold for over $2,000, but don't get screwed some models are worth more then others....(GTU, TII) so check the model and post it

Hi,
The 1987 has no spoiler and no other lettering like GTU, TII, or GLX on the body. It runs gr8 with 70KMiles. And it has 4 lugs on each tire NOT 5 lugs.
Thank you all for helping.

Okay, almost there, does it have auto adjust suspension and a rear wiper? You either have a GXL, or an SE/base. If it's a base, I'd ask for 2300-2500. if its a GXL and most of the options work, 2500-2700. Thats what I'd pay for a nice car.

It is most likely a base, because only a few GXl were 4 lug, and they all had markings that said GXL.

If you've had people willing to buy for 2500, take their offers.
