Price check 93 fd base

Looking at a 93 fd base, red on black, 5mt, 35k original miles no engine rebuild flawless inside and out. Original owner, no rust, no accidents, perfect carfax, always garaged with maintenance history paperwork. What do you think this is worth? I know I should check the classifieds but as we all know listing price is different than the actual price the car sold for in most cases. So what do you all think?

If it really is mint with those miles and it starts, runs, and drives strong I'd imagine close to $20k.

What are your intentions? If you are picking it up more as a collector and are going to do little with the car in regards to mods then I'd guess 16k-20k. I don't value the cars from the collector perspective too much personally.

If your goals are to mod the car, for me personally, I'd rather pick up a higher mileage chassis with a few mods already and maybe a few issues for 10k and go from there. That's just me however.

I plan on keeping the car mostly stock, just reliability mods. Basically a weekend cruiser and will be garaged in the winter months etc.

Haha ya we will see, I am just wondering for that kind of money if I should go with a 94 or 95. I have about a 20k budget and am trying to get the best car in that range.

They are all pretty old cars at this point. The most important thing with a 17-19 year old car is how well it has been maintained and treated. I think I've seen the one you're looking at an it looks mint. Good luck with your decision.

Speaking of 94s - https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-rx-7-1993-2002-vehicles-107/1994-black-r2-21-000-miles-excellent-overall-condition-963937/

In my Opinion I would not let the car Fritz has go by without a Look.
Good luck anyways..Cheers Styx.
