Official "Look what I found" thread

Since I've been coming across various threads of people looking to get into an FD, I figured I'd start a thread in hopes this will turn into a place for those folks to find their dream cars. The value of these cars have started to skyrocket, but that isn't a reason for people not to pursue their dream car. Didn't wna post it in the marketplace because I am not selling cars myself, and I hope those people who are selling cars will post in the marketplace instead of this thread. However, the intention is to post cars found on various sites in hopes that we can keep these rotary powered beauties in the family.

Here's one for those of you not afraid to turn a wrench.
Well, tbh you shouldn't own an FD if you're afraid to turn a wrench, but I digress.

Wow, I rarely see ANY rotary rides in my part of the world, but these 2 are not too far from where I live - within a less than 45 min drive range. I won't be buying either one, but if anyone needs help with a pre-purchase inspection & compression test, I can help you out.

guess they want to try and hook you before revealing the mileage, better bring the tow truck above
