Proud new owner of a 90 rx7 turbo

I just bought a 90 rx7 turbo 6 days ago.It needs some brake work and had a couple of dents, nothing major IMO.

It has 135,xxx KMs on it and is black leather inside and black outside.I have never had a turbo car of any kind, but I have had a 82 rx7 and an 89 rx7 in the past, neither being a turbo model.

I am super excited to get driving it but want to fix it up right before I do
So far I have fiberglassed and sanded smooth the dent on the drivers fender and plan to do the drivers rear/top quarter panel dent, maybe tomorrow.

The color code on the door jam says color code:PZ
The paint is metallic black, and looks like it was painted metallic blue under the black because in the right light it looks sort of like it has blue in it.

Did mazda have rx7's this color originally in 90? I am hoping I can just paint the fiberglassed parts and not have to paint the entire car

It has 16 inch AR rims in mint shape, power windows, remote locks, tilt, A/C, black leather seats and door panels, a B&M shifter, sunroof, bra,etc.

I just joined the site because I really like rx7's and now own my third one, but my first turbo.I hope to have some pics to post tomorrow.The guy I bought it from was a really nice guy too, I didn't even try and offer him less than he was asking for it, his price was already a great deal IMO.I want to keep the car for years and keep it in mint shape and fix it up over time until its perfect.

The guy I bought it from said he read on the internet that the turbo was worth $2000 and the rims were worth $500.

So, is 135,xxx Kilometers equal to approx 63,500 miles? I dont know if that is correct math or not, but to me that is very low miles as I have never bought any car in my life with such low miles, being a backyard mechanic for the past 16 years I refuse to buy anything at full price.Normally my mode of operation is to buy something needing work so that its cheap, fixing it myself so when I go to sell it after I am bored of it, I usually get back what I paid for it, or more.I'm not rich so I partly do this out of practicality and partly because I have to

So anyone else have a 90ish turbo rx7 and some pics? I would love to see them...
