Best part on that car is 3 wheel center caps with no paint and 1 missing. Seems like someone could have gotten a spare center cap and some silver spray paint!
Also that brake fluid is DARK. Is the rear Mazda toilet bowl badge larger than normal? Seems like it's off another car or something. Dale |

More detailed pics here:
https://www.gatewayclassiccars.com/H...1993-Mazda-RX7 I do see the intake piping looks like it's banged up. image #104,#105,#106 I also see what looks like a leak #114,#115 I didn't go through the pictures on their website since I'm not interested in this car, but looking at one engine bay picture I can already see a lot of questionable things. TB coolant hose bypassed? AWS clamp not on all they way? Cruise control deleted? Still bid up to 18k tho :lol: |

Here's another one:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-Mazda-...d=163774833479 Honestly, if I were trying to sell that car I'd change out the pre-auto headlights and hood back to stock. I have those headlights and though they provide phenomenal lighting I know that they aren't very appealing to most and that has an effect on resale value. ************************************************** ************************************************** ******************

Wow... ok, so this RHD Red FD just sold on BAT for $27K. I'm shocked, not at how low it went, but the fact that it made it North of $22K. No disrespect intended to the seller OR buyer if they frequent this thread, but so many things that would cause me to pause, or pass. Heavy metal corrosion (the result of years in Japan-land environment), chips, dents, dings. A bottom with heavy overspray. An interior that, quite frankly, needs a complete redo plastic-wise and dash-wise. The car had "claimed" low mileage and excellent compression. Interesting stuff!

Yeah, that's absolutely insane pricing. I need to sell mine NOW haha.
|
I am also shocked. Not that a RHD reached that price, but that one with such poor interior condition did. Makes me appreciate how tidy my interior is.
Oh well, it is good news for all owners I suppose! |

prices are all over the place right now, I see people selling 100k plus mileage cars around the same price as cars with less than 60k in FB group. BaT tends to run high compared to market average and I haven't seen anything in the last couple of months under $20k LHD or RHD. Although I agree the dash area on that car looks beat up it is a low mileage car and I don't see any corrosion on the body itself, mostly on the exhaust. I think that demand for low mileage RHD vehicles will rise as low mile LHD examples become harder to come by for a reasonable price, which will in turn drive the price of those RHD vehicles up.

Resale Red. Black interior. Lack of sunroof. Back seats. Most of the interior was nice, except the early finishes, and the torn up dash.
Price felt little high, but some people really seemed to appreciate it's unique JDMness. And, I think how the peanut gallery reacts to the car drives the final sales price a lot on that site. Hopefully the car market is up. The wider market has been a little shook in confidence til lately. |

That car would have gotten another 5 to 10 grand if it were a manual.

Crazy deal.

In fairness, that might be a new record high sale of an automatic FD. Lol

Yep 93 touring ssm/red looks good. Some people really love this combo so it could bring good money if the right buyer comes along. My complaints; some rust, lots of hardware replaced and I don't like aftermarket motor mounts. That said the owner worked super hard to clean it up etc... for sale so hats off to him for presenting the car nicely.
The VR/tan touring sold for low 30s earlier this year so it should at least bring that. Just found the old listing here on the forum. Compression was healthy in jan so I suspect it's fine now. Someone should have bought it here vs paying the 5 percent. Unbelievable that BAT consistently does better than private sale. It's a frikken auction LOL. I'll say 35k for this one. Nicely maintained ssm/red etc.... |
This one https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1994-mazda-rx-7-25/ is now for sale at a dealer for 44k https://www.motorcarclassics.com/199...urbo-c-394.htm
crazy market |
Edit, don’t want to get banned
|
Uh oh Fritz. Watch out. The mods (Gen2n3 and Narfle) might come in and ban you for taking about the sale of your car outside of the classified section and then Ban me for asking why they are being inconsistent (or their unconventional definition of picking a fight with them) with how they treat posts like this.
