You can get a body in white and build a "brand new" fc - I'd do this myself if I was rich

mine is far from lowest miles at 70k.

I've seen a 10AE with ~12K on it in sudbury a few years ago - wish I knew what happened to that guy. Was totally a random chance meeting too.. ******* cool day. He took me for a ride in the car and if it wasn't for that I probably never would have fixed mine up.

n4ij on this forum has a pretty low miles 10AE too.
I've got a 60,000KM '79 that was built in 4/78.. only 3,157 cars were built before it, making it pretty close to being the "oldest" rx7.

Damn, that'd be sweet to do. I can picture it now....

"Wow, nice FC, what year is it?"

"2007"

"......... uh"

Oh the fun you could have with the people at the parts stores.
