Hello, Im planning to buy this car, what do guys think its a fair price. I checked carfax it doesnt have any problems, it had two previews owners. thx

Seems a little high. But hey I'm no expert. It would be nice if you knew what the $5k in extras were. Unless thats the t timer and body work. I would say between 16k-17k. I paid 16k for a bone stock 93 a few years ago. Stock FDs are worth more than modified ones. My .02. Good luck either way.

 

Thx for the feedback, I think 5k in extras are Upgrade wheels, spoiler, front, Greddy Turbo timer, Brand New Mazda installed engine with only 6k. Here a few pics. Thx again

 

$14,000 at most.

Unless a car is completely stock and very low mileage or completely built and in beautiful shape.....Blue Book/NADA value plus a couple thousand is about the going rate now. I gave this car a "fair" value on the KBB system because there is no doubt some mechanical issues somewhere as well as some blemishes (I'd call that hideous front and wheels a blemish!!). With that KBB says Private party should be $9985 (With a "good" rating still is only $10,930). So, almost $4-5000 over that sounds right.

 

The front is disgusting, the wheels are ghetto, the turbo timer is useless, and unless the seller has a receipt showing the Mazda reman being put in (and you can check the motor over to see for youself, just look to see if the coolant housing has been painted silver)....that means nothing too.

people use the same old techniques to try and sell these cars all the time, you have to learn how to weed through the bullshit.

P.S. Those tires are not the correct size either. Way too big.

 

thanks for your opinons/feedback

this is my first time buying an rx7 and i want to get a good deal on it

im driving 4 hours tomorow to check out the car (its far away :p)


is there anything else i should look for in this car?

is the coolant housing easy to see when you open up the hood?

by the way if you look at the back of the car on one of the pictures it looks like its not a stock exhaust, what do you guys think?

that is not the stock exhaust. it isn't a Racing Beat single either, because I have that and it doesn't stick out that far. If looking at that engine bay pic, the yellow cap on the LEFT is the coolant tower. Look at the silver below that cap. Try to see if it looks like "new" paint..or better yet, if it is silver paint flaking off then you know it is a reman for sure.

 

Beige interior in a white car? Yuk!
