Cool Proof that 3rd gen RX7'S are increasing in value.

My friend just sold his 93 FD for 25,000 cash. This is the most hidious RX7 I have ever seen and I still cannot beleive anyone would pay 25,000 for it. The car has 110,000 miles on the stock motor. The motor has nothing done to it,completely stock. The only thing the car has done to it is the mexican wood grain paint job,veilside bodykit,neon,erubuni hood,big wing and wheels.

Here are pics of it, and you guys say modded FD's aren't worth much

Who ever sold it was a damn good salesman or the buyer needed to do more homework. Either way 25,000 is an obscenely large chunk of change for such an ugly car.

Tell him not to mess up his NSX when he gets it, cause they are nice cars. And kick his *** if he doesn't take that advice. Its a damn shame.

He won't listen.


You guys don't understand how pissed off I got everytime I saw that car. Him and his friends just thought it was the coolest thing ever.

Looks like this is strictly a show car. Does he enter it in competition? That may explain the rediculous price.

Your thread title claimed that you had:

"Proof that 3rd gen RX7'S are increasing in value"

I'm looking and I sure can't find proof of anything except that some idiot paid too much money for a car that no one else would ever want!

I don't think he meant it literally.....more of a "sarcasm" at the fact that someone got ripped off.

Relax....chill..

And how's Sac-Town?
