With those minor adjustements cant ask for more on what you pay for. Perfect car to go to work and back. has 111.000 miles and runs like it was just of the lot come and take a look.

I looked at it and drove it yesterday and it seemed fine to me, but I am a rotary newbie I don't know if you can tell from that picture, but its a vert too. Any insight would be appreciated!

i guess you can't tell from the picture because it isn't working! Oh well... It's really clean exterior, red with a good top, factory BBSs, no body damage visible.

2000 seems cheap if thats really a rebuilt engine - ask to see paperwork from a shop and then if he doesnt have it its more than likely a frankenstien 13b

Never heard of a rx7 being a gas saver. That made my morning so much better

tmb276

I know, the whole gas saving thing is a joke! I think that the guy thinks that because its an import it must automatically be economical! The whole very fast thing was pretty funny too. Still, I'm not looking for a street racer or anything, just a cool car to drive around in. Plus its a vert, which to me is way cooler than the coupes. So, the guy said his brother gave the car to him or something, so I don't think that he will have the paperwork. I was gonna offer him 1700 cash. I figure if I get for that much and it blows up, I can just part it out. What do you guys think?

Yeah, go for it. And even at 111K, if it isn't rebuilt it should at least get you to 175K with regular matinence. Nice find, and good luck.

And a gas saver? I've gotta give that a LOL...

it's not an auto, I say get a compression test and buy it if it's good.

tmb276

As far as a compression test goes, do you need to do anything differently than a piston motor? Just wondering because I was going to take it to a mechanic friend, but he's not a rotary specialist. Is it a waste of time taking it to him?

Nope. Just go by this: http://rotaryresurrection.com/2ndgen...ion_check.html
