Smile Looking for an RX8

hey guys , i have a friend whos got his eyes on a 2004/6-speed RX8 , she has 120,000 miles on it , the guy lives in California and he asked me if the car was good , all i had to say was 120,000 sounds a bit too much for a renesis but a compression test would be a good idea , any other ideas on how can he check if the car is in a good condition ?
and are the 2004 models the ones that had the Renesis with the oil issue ? the old model (correct me if im wrong im asking)
any tips would be appreciated

PS : car price is $4,335
and thats the car
Used 2004 Mazda RX-8 Coupe in Bellflower, CA near 90706 | JM1FE173240133513 | Auto.com

Thanks

Point your friend to the new owner's thread. I probably would offer $2,500 on that just from the pics, maybe up to $3,500 if the engine has good compression. It's clearly neglected.
