I had the mirrors, rear spoiler, and rear bumper re-sprayed ($400.00) Other then that the Paint is Original VR. I also updated it with the Mazda flying “M”

My Impression of Car:

This is my second RX7. The first one I owned was an Automatic. After about a year with that one I sold it. Too many issues with it; and people trying to rip me off. So I vowed to get another RX7. After about 18 months searching I found this one in Houston, TX. I ended up flying there from South Carolina, and driving it back. What a drive that was, absolutely a thrill to say the least.

The Car has only been seeing 10psi of boost. You will see that the Boost Controller is set to the very lowest setting. Attached is the dyno sheet (312.3hp, 268.1tq) 4th gear pull. The Power-FC is still in it’s stock configurations (meaning it has never been tuned). The performance shop that installed it, increased the fuel setting (for reliability purposes) until a certified Apexi tuner can tune it. I had Steve Osley look at the Map for me, when he had the car. He saw no issue with it at all. Steve Also set the Radiator Fans to came on at (low) 80 degrees; (Med) 85 degrees. The car never runs hot!!

Other than the Stereo Antenna not going up, the car currently has Zero Issues! I welcome anyone to come by and check it out. Of course I will not offer joy rides to non-serious buyers.

PRICE:

$19,000

Wow...if i had 19,000...i'd take it. i wouldn't even try to haggle with the price...i'd take it.

Me too.

*sigh* I really wish my GF would find a job so that I'd have some cashflow again. (Paying for 2 to live is killing my car-buying opportunities. :) )

Bump, for upcoming week. Still for Sale!!!

God I wish I had the money to buy that car. Looks amazing. I am sure it will sell fast on cars.com

Damn dude your selling the 7??? That sucks. Hey folks I have layed eyes on this car, followed it for an hour and have looked under the hood, it is a beautiful car. Period. He really has taken care of it and everything has been done right. Very nice guy to boot. Sorry to see you sellin it but I'm sure you have your reasons. We should make one last trip to columbia for a meet, that was alot of fun :D:

Bump for such a sweet looking car.

WantedTwo: Thanks for the kind words.

Here are some updated pics:

are u on rx7club? think twice before selling it lol. because youll regret ir!

nice fd, wish i had 19k like the rest of everyone here...

Wow, that car is amazing!

are u on rx7club? think twice before selling it lol. because youll regret ir!

Yep, I have been a member of the RX7club for almost three years now.

nice fd, wish i had 19k like the rest of everyone here...

All I can say is Capital One financing for Civilians, and USAA for Military. That is one of the three ways people get money to buy these kind of cars. The other two are saving, and taking a loan out on your house.

wow that is a nice looking FD who wouldnt buy it as long as they ihave the money (which i dont)

Free bumb for a great guy and awsome car

Fresh oil change Saturday (3 June 06) (oil & filter).

She still drives like a dream. Not one issue. It felt like an ice box in the car on Saturday, even though it was 92 degrees outside; Oh, that's right, my a/c was on full blast.

New Price: $18,750

Anyone can come and check out this Wonderful FD. You just need to call me @ 803-464-4952, and we can set up a date for you to stop by. Nothing to hide here people, just a fantastic FD waiting for a new home.

Alright - free bump for a dumb question:

Is the car located in South Carolina now? I read through twice and must have missed the reference to the current location.

As a fellow FD owner, I'm glad to see another on that isn't over modded. My FD currently has 31XXX miles on it. bump!

btw i'm a Clemson grad org. from Spartanburg, SC.

yes, its at shaw afb, Sc. I saw it a few days ago. :)

Saw the car today, and I can say for a fact the headlight both go up and down :D:

Thanks for all the Good Words... Hopefully someone will pick my FD up. If not I wouldn't mind keeping it. Hey there should be another RX7 meet in July, do you want to go? Let me know.

New Price: $18,500

You are breaking my heart. I've been lusting after this car since you posted it.
If my girlfriend was working right now, or I could sell my RX-8 without losing my shirt, I'd fly down and pick this thing up next week....

I you do decide to come and check out the car, You will not be disappointed. You will not be able to find a car for this price that can come close to the looks and the preformance of this FD :Eyecrazy:

WOW, another bump. People, your missing out here. This is a deal of an RX7. You know the Compression numbers, you have testimony from a long time forum buddy (test drove and inspected "coolvette"), what else is needed? If you come an check this car out, you will not be disappointed. Below are just some random pics I have yet to post.

Garrick

I die a little bit inside every time I see this car get bumped.....

Sorry about that.

Not your fault.

I suppose it's possible that I could somehow get a sudden windfall of cash.... yeah.. that faint hope encourages me. :)

So the price is now @ $17,900 OBO. You will be hard pressed to find another FD that has been taken care of like this one. Low miles with a very streetable single turbo, WOW! Don't worry everything works (minus the radio antenna). Please feel free to give me a call or come on bye and check the FD out. One test drive and you will be in love.

NEW PRICE: $17,900

Still for sale people. You know you want it. Seriously it's getting closer for me and my family to Move overseas, so I need someone to buy this Wonderful FD. Anyone is welcome to come and check it out. Just give me a call.

Garrick

Please forgive me for my lack of knowledge of RX7's. I know this might not be the most unbiased place to ask this, but how reliable are the FD's? I have been thinking on and off about selling my 8 for something else, but I really need something fairly reliable that will last me my last two years of school, and a few years after that. Also, I know it is a two seater, but is there at least a decent amount of cargo room, like perhaps a golf bag and a few other miscellaneous items?

(I don't want to completely get your hopes up, as I am still in the contemplating phase, but I live in SC and it is a possibility. Good luck with your sale and god-speed when you go overseas)

I would almost compare the RX7 (FD) to a mean wife. If you don't give it the attention it needs than it will blow up in your face. Unlike a lot of RX7's out there this one is well taken care of. Reliability mods are done, and it receives only the utmost care everyday. You are more than welcome to come and check this FD out. It runs beautiful, and is very reliable. Before you buy any RX7 I suggest you do a little research. A good place to start will be here: http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=68640

You will find a lot of very valuable information there. I have been studying RX7's for almost 4 years, and every time I visit the RX7 forum I learn something new.

If you would like to get an RX7, I would suggest you do not buy an FD without getting a compression check and you test drive it. It's a crap shoot that could put way in the hole if you neglect certain things and act on impulse. I'm not saying my FD is perfect, but it's damn close. Give me a call @ 803-464-4952 and we can work out a time for you to come and take a look.

Garrick

I will actually be in Chapin tommorrow teachin kids how to play golf. I'm not sure if thats anywhere near where you are. I would like to take a look at it sometime, but I know so little about the car that I'm not sure how serious of a buyer I am yet. Not to mention the fact that I dont know a great deal about turbos so I'm not sure of the best way to maintain them. Let me know if you are somewhere within a decent distance of Harbison Blvd. or somethin, and I might give you a call just to take a look at it. If you are free tommorrow afternoon that is.

EDIT: Well, I read a little bit on the RX-7 forum and it doesnt look like this car is the daily driver I need. Need a little more cargo room and a little more reliability. Dont think I will be switching to a 7 afterall, unless I win the powerball. (In which case I'll buy a bunch of 'em) Well, good luck with your sale, and sorry I wasnt able to buy your car.

Alot of people tell me they want to buy my car (4 people as of right now), but no one has even given me a call to set up the transaction. Here is a little incentive for all the perspective buyers:

Price: $17,500 OBO!!!

That is a deal and a half, for what your getting here.
