I am trying desperately to find an RX-7 within a reasonably distance of Chicago. Are there any places special to look(besides here, autotrader and cars.com)?

I have three requirements. 1) Must run ok, 2) Must be drivable and 3) Must be manual. I would take a second gen over a first.

I have about a 1500 dollar budget possibly a bit more.

I am currently waiting to see if one guy can iron out the problems with his second gen.

Any tips or suggestions?

Thanks

 

$1500 isn't going to buy much. Keep an eye out here in the For Sale area and get to know the people at www.chicagorotary.com. If people know what you are looking for, they may remember you when something comes up.

 

I had to shop around for about 2 months before I found one that was too good to pass up. Keep your eye on cars.com becaue they also list the local newspaper classified ads.

 

Cool, im really hoping the car i looked at yesterday comes together, it was perfect.

 

theyre not that hard to find...

in the past month ive bought 2 rx7s both for under 1000 bux...

 

Found mine on auto trader.com. You can set the parameters on there as far as distance and cost etc. Also ebay.

 

i found it was kinda hard around this area.... ohio has some and thats about it and im talking about decent ones for a good price. mine i just happened to get info on it and i paid twice what you are looking to pay.

It took me 6 months before i found a decient FD anywhere close to WI. I wish you better luck!

 

Thanks for all the help, hopefully I will find a car soon to throw my money at.
