Should I buy this for a drift build
Hi guys I found a 88 rx7 I believe it's a savanna from the bumper it's in quite ruff shape but I never really cared for the enterior so it doesn't bother me to bad but I wanna know what yall think about this condition what do you think I should offer for it

Well it's not a Savanna. Pretty sure that's just some sticker a previous owner stuck on there. The Savanna was a Japan only model IIRC and as such were all turbo models which this one is not. I would suspect it is an SE or base model going by the 4 lug wheels. This means it doesn't have the good brakes (4 piston front calipers and vented rear rotors) of the turbo or higher trim level n/a cars. Unless someone swapped one in it also won't have a LSD rear end. That said the body looks pretty straight other than some alignment issues of the bumper cover and drivers side fender. If you have the time and money to put into it, it might be worth buying. $500 seems like a good starting point, though in today's market even that might be low. Still, I can't see giving much more than that.

100% its a US car, probably a 1988 SE which was the step up from the base model. someone put the stickers on later.
that would be a lot of work, but it would turn out pretty nicely i think. its dirty and gross, but its complete and looks like its in ok shape
