buying a FD RX7 that overheated
I RECENTLY CAME TO THE U.S. TO STUDY, BUT NOW I DISCOVERED HOW GREAT ROTATIVE CARS ARE AND I'M THINKING TO BUY ONE SO THERE IS ONE GUY SELLING HIS RX7 BUT HE SAID TO ME THAT THE CAR IN THE SUMMER WAS GIVING HIM PROBLEMS AND I THINK THE CAR WAS OVERHEATED OR KIND OF, BUT THE CAR NOW IS RUNNING GOOD .
COULD YOU GUYS GIVE ME AND ADVICE IF IS GOOD IDEA OR NOT TO BUY IT ?

hwo much is it, if cheap, just throw engine and turbos away and just buy a new one with single turbo upgrade. if you cant afford that, buy a moped cuz you wont beable to even buy a fricken civic!

If it actually overheated then it the motor is a ticking time bomb. Did this on my old FC and the motor was tost in a couple of months. Deduct the cost of a new motor in the price

for 8,000 I'd definately go for it. That will give you about another 8,000 to fix stuff and still be getting a decent deal. What I mean is, a good running FD is usually worth 16,000 or so. So for 8,000 even if repairs cost you another 8k, you won't be paying too much.

fenders are cheap, just buy new ones and bolt them on. also, idk what your gonna expect from an 11 year old car but i doubt that the paint will look brand new. 8k is a good deal though and if i were you, id totally go for it.
