noob

Hey, i'm about to purchase a VR touring 94 rx7 with 104k miles on it original motor* and has had two owners.......i ran a car fax report and it's completely clean, no accidents or anything. it just didnt pass inspection once but then passed. seems clean runs fine. It would also be my daily driver. Would that be a good idea? especially with 104k on the original motor?the car is meticulous and in great condition and the engine is completely stock.

Hey monkey king, at 104k that motor's going to be on it's last legs. A compression check will give you an idea of how healthy it is. Extra expenditures includes all the reliability mods. Read the FAQ at the top of the forum.
