Help with Purchase Price
93 Touring
I am thinking of buying the above RX-7. I test drove it today and listened/looked for all the quirks according to some posts on this site and others. The car, as far as I can see, if perfect (I would have it checked professionally, of course).
He seller claims he has an offer of 23.5. This seems high to me. Any thoughts?

the car looks to have unbelievably low miles or at least garage kept. I see some wear on the steering wheel which means it was driven. it also looks totally stock. It depends on how many miles it has....ok i figured out how to see the rest of the details now...yes I was right it has low miles haha
if a mint 93 is what you are looking for then id pay the price that one is very rare. If you are looking to have a very fast rx7 that one is going to cost you a bundle to get modified since it has 0 on it

Yeah very few made with the black/red combo.
This car has been senior owned and babied. He also owns 2 Porsches.
I am interested in an all stock/original car, but would like to add only intake and exhaust on my own.
I wish he was asking less.
Also...I plan on selling my SH and paying the rest in cash, but how do you get around the Blue Book Loan Value vs. market value issue?

red interior looks like *** but different strokes for different folks. if you dont believe him about the price/offer from someone else, just dont buy from him. or you can make him an offer adn tell him to give you a call if the other deal falls thru. looks clean and nice though, good luck

Just looked at my spelling in the first post....yeesh.
Anyway, thanks for the opinions. It is hard to walk away from such a cherry, but, like girls...another one always seems to come along......
Any more opinions would be great.

The engine looks pretty dirty for only having 19k miles on it. 24k is a little too much for that car. Personally i would rather have a higher mileage FD for almost half the price. But if i was looking for a low mileage FD, i would prolly pay about 20k for it. Even with that low mileage, still get a compression test done. Also remember, once that car hits the 20,000 mile mark, the value is gonna go down a couple thousand dollars instantly.

Yeah, the engine was fairly dirty and the seller said he hadn't had time to do a good job cleaning it up. It had been in storage all winter.
Someone find me a low miles, stock RX-7!

yeah, get the 350z. At least you will have a warenty. Well probably not with that one. I guarentee that 350z in your post is prolly a lot more then any rx7 you pick up.

I guess the ideal is a low mileage car that was driven gently about 10 miles a month, away from salty air, rain, or snow. Which is rare to be found, and why I consider most very low mileage cars to be overpriced.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.!..23 is too much for any Stock FD even if it hasn't been driven ....Chances are, if you are on this forum you are planning on modding it...You will end up like me...Buying a high dollar stock car and then spendind two times as much on mods..>My advice is to find something clean that's already been modded and has a fresh rebuild...
