I wonder if this will spark another " the value of the FD is on the rise again" Threads

Gordon, Fritz I think we need the 2013 version eh?

Seriously a '93 base with 100K+ miles with a nice interior phenomenal engine build but a fair exterior getting that payout from flood damage total... sucks it had to happen after all the hard work, but its another show case that these cars value are on the rise.

Wow that really blows. Are you going to take the 13 and try to fix it? Or are you going to take the 17 and buy another?

Considering a state of this particular Rx7, I think that payout is spot on.
Finding a nice 7 without a sunroof is becoming.....tedious.

OH GOD dont get me started on finding a black on black w/o sunroof. I found one. its on its way up from arkansas. should be here thursday, watch out for another build thread

state farm uses NADA for pricing. NADA puts pricing on a 93 as:

Low - 9200
Average Retail - 15400
High Retail - 19200

The car is considered a classic. So oddly enough the value of a 1993 is currently more than a 1994-95

I took the 13500 since i wasnt about to part with the engine/drivetrain. i actually cleared the engine out, started it and drove it home without a problem aside from the smell. vehicle will be up for sale soon as a salvage title.

Was gonna say you should pick up that red 93 Base currently for sale locally, but looks like you already found a replacement.

That payout is nice from State Farm, maybe I should consider switching insurance lol.
