Haha, as much as I love RX7s, I'd have to say take the brand new RX8. You'd be trading $600 for a $27000+ car. Unless there's some catch, it should be a no-brainer.

You can get yourself a 7 later when you have the time/money to fix one up.

read the fine print on the contract, ask for the strings attached and if it seems you can handle whatever leverage he'll hold over you for the new car then do it.

That's a very odd deal. You paid $600 for an old RX-7 is dubious condition, then your dad says he will buy you a $25,000-$32,000 RX-8 if you give it to him?

That makes no sense.
