I have been in rotary world for 8yrs. and am buying a 94 VR PEG/PEP,
I used the info from FAQ for guidelines and some forum members
I want to know, what the original cost of car like this was, I am on dial up and work long hours, so this is 1 time I need a quick answer. I could ballpark, but I want accuracy. thanx

maybe i remembered wrong

I had a 94's sticker that listed MSRP @ $40,100 for a PEP package... with Sunroof, Bose, No Spoiler, No front Lip...

yep 40k is a lot closer

MisterX

Base price of an early '93 was 31,300. First price increase (of many to follow) was around $1200 sometime in August '92. The '94s were ALOT more than that.

From DCrosby's amount that car would cost 51188.38 today new.

The retail price on the 94s and 95s was in the low 40s but a shrewd buyer paid in the low 30s so his cost should of been low 30s.

Not really sure why you care though

I look at the cost of FDs relative to other fun sports cars available today:
s2000
BMW m3
350z
Evo
STI
Miata
corvette
etc.....

Given the other options paying more than 20k for an FD is crazy unless it's a very special car. Fortunately there are some really nice cars being made now.

MSRP's above are apprx. correct. Realize that in August of 1994 Mazda had a dealer rebate/incentive deal which if I remember was 1k for the first car 2k for the second 4k total up to 5k for 5 cars or 25k total - if you sold five and then it started again. I paid $29,900 for my R2 black / black with a gold emblem package-less $3,800 for my '86 FC trade with 90k on the clock-needed work. I negotiated back between two dealers who both priced the car at $29,900 -both were on number 5 and 10k in 1994 was and still is alot of coin. Getting a high priced slow selling car off the floorplan was great motivation....One gave me a 2k lowball offer on the trade and the rest is history. So to answer the "cost" question I think you need to understand what market force was in place. If you bought early in 04 you paid more than if you bought late.
