I agree, I think a better deal will show up later.

If your bound and determined to get it run a search for common problems under the 2nd gen forum.

also check out http://www.aaroncake.net/rx-7/buy1.htm good info there.

Good luck.

That's Candian Paseos, so if it's in very good condition that's not too much. 100k miles (~160,000km) does not mean new engine time for an n/a IF properly cared for. Even a TII engine should have another 20k miles or so left in it. The GXL is an upper model so that helps justifies the price.
