Compression tested - 7.6 F/R @ 260 with a V5 RCT from Rotarycompressiontester.com
Needs - Paint, rear tails resealed,battery, clutch.
The car originally came from Maryland, so, it does have some body rust and surface rust, and a little bit of bubbling and some clear coat fading.
The Koyorad and coolant bottle are a common addition/update - The coolant bottle has a sensor on the bottom that likes to go out, it's a warranty part. When trying to replace the bottle the original radiator nipple snapped, so I decided to upgrade to a full aluminum radiator. All parts on this car were purchased NEW - Stance Suspension replaced a blown stock suspension, BHR coils to replace non oem coils, motor mounts were blown so fixed those, etc, etc.
Interior is perfect aside from a cigarette burn from the previous owner on the drivers side passenger's seat, and 3 cracks on the passengers side dash - A VERY common issue. At some point in time the original single disk CD player was changed out for a 6 disk that works fine. Interior has minor scuffs and scratches, but what you'd expect for a 12 year old car.
Update for 2017 - The car has been driven for the last year pretty much every week to make sure fluids keep flowing. It's in pretty similar shape cosmetically and mechanically. A compression test in March? Of this year still show's all the rotors holding at 7+ on compression. Upkeep has been oil every 3k and plugs every 10k, and the car is still mechanically excellent, starts up, etc. Needs a new battery but will probably have that arranged before sale, if not can be negotiated into final price. Photos are old but will have fresh detailed photos this weekend with any luck. Tires rotated regularly. Included in sale will be a mid pipe with a brand new cat, I was unable to pass emissions a second time but I have since moved to a non emissions part of my state.
NEED GONE BY END OF OCTOBER. No REASONABLE offer turned down.

looks really nice man, pretty much the perfect bolt-on rx8. i was going a very similar direction with mine, but ended up with a low compression engine. got 2500 for it still running and driving. unfortunately the market for these things is just dead.
