This car is fun to drive and even with out a turbo, is pretty fast!
>Starts right up – no issues - rotary engine is in great condition
>New battery and oil and filter change in April 2019 at 88,624
> All electrical items are working with no issues (alarm, lights, high beams, retractable headlights, wipers, washer fluid jets, etc)
>(2) new sumitomo tires bought at 83,977 – (2) other still (bridgestone) have good tread on them.
>Includes convertible “boot” cover - may look black in pix, but really is dark grey.
> Includes and aftermarket car cover
>A/C blows cold
>Convert top in good condition
>Original window sticker and most repair invoices from 2003 - 2019 are included in paperwork.
Disclosure of known issues:
>Needs entire exhaust system including y/pipe and both mufflers. – there is NO system left on this car - So, it does NOT have an inspection sticker. I believe that this is the only reason why this hasn't passed inspection, so be prepared to put one on before you legally drive.
>Headrest speakers are not working
>CD and cassette are intermittent, but radio works ok.
> As in virtually all RX-7 verts of this age, the seats, especially the driver's are still usable but need some TLC.
>Front passenger quarter panel was badly repaired by body shop and then badly repainted twice.
>Hood has lots of scratches and there is a large ding on the driver' side quarter panel where it meets the hood.
>Car has a bunch of scratches all over - I tried my best to get pix, but its hard with a black car on a sunny day!
> Missing three BBS Mazda wheel caps ) – two are in the trunk.
> Had a small intermittent leak behind the driver's side seat, but I have been unable to find it's origin.
> Carpet behind drivers side seat has a few 'burn' marks.
So mechanically, this is a great care except for missing exhaust system. Cosmetically this car will need some work (if you care - doesn't not impede the performance at all!)
I have had many RX-7s over the years, but am by no means an expert ! Just a fan of this coveted 2nd gen models. I have done my best to describe the issues and condition. All pictures are part of the description.
