I found a 93 RX7 R1 with 110k new engine at 100k w/receipts for $9000. The guy said the turbo's are still original and checked when the engine was replaced. How long do the turbo's normally last? The car is black with black leather. Is their anything I should look for before I buy the car? I am new to Mazda's so any help would be great.

hmm seems to cheap to be good, test drive it and get a compression test.

 

HAHA, I totally agree!! I am sure he just loves telling all the newbies to search, man thats gotta get old but at least he still helps out.

 

This is the second post i've read with leather in a R1. Someone said u could get it like that from the factory but why would you?

 

Yeah, boy!!!!

 

I took it to a local RX7 guy he checked the turbo's and the engine and said they are in great shape. So I bought the car. I got him talked down a little bit more($8600), because it needs tires, it has 3 dings on drivers side, and 2 on pass. side. Overall I would give the car a 7.5-8 out of 10. I love the car it is so much quicker than the VR4 I used to have.

 

Congrats Dude! Hope you enjoy the crap out of it...Be careful on the road!
