As I was reading this thread I started thinking to myself -- 'Crack must be really cheap in Canada.'

I hate to say this, but you aint gonna find one that cheap. This one alone is 3K US dollars. And it doesn't even have an engine. To get it running halfway descent, it would take a lot of time and probably between 6-10K minimum. Personally, I don't know who would pay 3K for that. It's probably cheaper to buy one for 8K with a blown motor and not worry about the other issues with this car like frame damage, etc.

If this guys wants to buy the cheapest RX7 for that money, he probably can't afford to fix it up for that much more.

I had a friend buy a FD last year for $2000. It is a black 93 auto. with a blown engine. Ive seen most in this shape going for over $6k. It isnt pristine in any way, but It doesnt have any major dents or interior rips. He has always been a tight ***. I tried to tell him he would never find one that cheap, but he did. If you wait long enough and lowball sometimes you get what what you want, at the price you want.

Keep your hopes up man I got this FD for $8250US good condition from some crackhead that never should of had it in the first place. Needs a little work but nothing major. Just put a new clutch in. Needs rear main seal, new tires, brakes, brake rotors, oil pressure sensor, and a muffler. Good deal eh? The good cheap ones are out there but be patient man. It took me a little more than 6 months to find his one. But don't you all think it was worth it? Oh and yes, even though I already have my FD, I'm still looking for a wrecked one. Parts for these sexy *** cars will set you back.

That front end is pretty hammered. I would buy that car and part it out.
