What Do You think of this one??

OK i know these kind of questions have been asked and asked but everyone seems to respond well with them and the person gets alot of good feedback which is what im hoping to get too. Montego Blue Fd,109,000 miles...ect:
more specs here:
http://www.muller-honda.com/f_invent...=RX7&year=1993
and here:
http://www.cars.com/search/used/cc/s...c=&cid=&row=17
now i want your opinions on whether you think its a good deal or not. Keep in mind i will probably be calling the place to get a compression test done to see that everything is in order. I will also bargain with the price since the motor is probably going to go soon anyways so i'll see if i can drop that a bit. and if he engine is bad too then i try and git a little more...but what do you think?
This is also right in my area to which is why im taking an interest in it

I spoke with that dealership a while ago about an RX-7 they were selling and the person I spoke to seemed like they didn't know much about the car, nor did it seem like they wanted to talk to me at all. Definantly go lower on the price.

I am not sure that a dealership will let you get a compression test on the car before purchasing it. You should try to get it below $10k as long as the car is in good shape and spend some of the money you save to rebuild when it is needed. If the compression and seal are good and you do not need a rebuild, then you walked away with a good car at a good price.

Also, make sure that you want an auto. In my opinion, I would look for a 5 speed. I would not be happy if my fd was an auto.

Thats basicly what I was saying. If you are looking for an auto go ahead. The autos and Montego Blues tend to be lower in price, I wouldn't be surprised if you could get it for 10k. At that mileage I'm thinking a new engine might be comming up. Good luck shopping
