Just got this in a trade. What is it-

I traded a header and an afc for this 87' n/a. What is it? I know little to nothing about the n/a's. Thinking of parting it out? Thanks

Hey RX-Rated! Remember I emailed you about the TII? I live in Hampton Roads and I might be interested in buying that N/A from you if you would be willing to sell it! How many miles are on it, does it run, and what kinda shape is the interior in?

Yep, that is a S4 sport. You can tell by the rubber lip spoiler, and the small aero pieces that are in front of the rear wheels and the front spoiler. Also has 15" wheels and bigger brakes, as the GXL and Turbo2. Dont part it out....find it a nice home Id take it .... If I needed another FC

Do not part that out. >:O That is a perfectly savable car man. If it was crashed or something then ok but that could still serve someone as a daily driver or project car. Toss out the dead ones not the savable ones. damn for a header lol.

Ok, it has 180k on it. The interior isn't bad, but it is missing radio bezel, and some vents (TII looks better though) Drivers seat needs love. Other than that, i was shocked as hell how good of shape this was in- I will get more pics this weekend, since i left it at my fathers (in fairfax) I may go ahead and tow it down here also- It does have a clear title, and i guess best offer as a whole gets it? Again, i will get more pics asap. Thanks for helping me figure out what it was-

Nope, wasnt mine. But I know a guy down in stafford, he's a buddy of mine and he wanted a 2nd gen to fix up, but he couldnt get one for a good price so he dropped 1200 on an 89 prelude. I don't think he should have done it. If you're interested in selling that; I'd love to tell him because I WANT him to have an FC. My FC isnt that nice, but I like it alot. If you're looking to sell that, whats your asking price?

Saw this thread and had to HiJack it!! I live in the Hampton Roads area, any Rx-7 fans near me hit me up in a PM. I also know of several n/a cars that are for sale. One with one of my older motors in it (happens to be a sport just like that one, even same color). And I have a lot of parts I am willing to sell to people who can pick them up. And yeah, thats a Sport alright.

It's missing the sport package rubber peices for the front bumper, but the rest indicates it's a sport.

the S4 sport is the one you want to swap to a t2. I think it is the lightest 2nd.
