IL 06' Rx8 Cheap - $4500

2006
Grey mazda rx8, 38k miles. Auto. Navi. Heated leather. Loaded.
Damage on the right fender. Overall in great shape. Tires are pretty much new continental DWS tires.
It does have a salvage title.*
Engine issue, coolant mixed with oil. Common issue from what I have read.*
Car will need to be towed. *I can arrange towing for a price.

Located in Streamwood,IL $4.5k obo. Would be a perfect car for a swap or just drop in a new motor which can be had for 2k or less.

If for some reason you choose to part out in the next week before I purchase a different colored bumper than my TiGrey, I am interested in the front bumper.

If not, GLWS!

not currently looking to part out. I'm getting a lot of hits on the car as it sits. If anything changes, I'll let you guys know.

Thanks,

Austin

Can you post some pics of the damage fender please?

I saw an ad on craigslist with some more details...Do you know why the car was salvaged in California?

http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/2835507632.html

Mechanics special deal right here! Please read entire ad
Serious inquires call!! 847 322 6639
I'll make this short, this is a friends car I'm selling for him because he got a new car already and only has 1 parking space.
2006 Mazda RX-8

39k miles
graphite grew color with black leather interior
Heated seats
factory Navi
paddle shifting WHY? Because RACE CAR
AUTO
Brand new tires. Continental DWS (3 of them, he hit a pot hole and blew the other so that one is a new goodyear RSA)

Was running perfect and one day it stopped running he brought it to the mechanic and they said it needs a motor (oil mixed with coolant). Used motor can be had for 1k-2k and you will have a great car for a LOT less than every other rx8 that is priced out there
Will need to be towed (can be arranged for additional fee)
Has a remote start as well

Title was salvage and the car came from California. Car has been inspected and now has an original title. The title does NOT say rebuilt or salvage.
NO Trades
CASH ONLY, NO CHECKS, NO PAYPAL NO SHIPPING ETC

DO NOT ask for a lower price. 4500 is the very very minimal he wants for the car nothing less.
NO payments

Right side fender needs fixing from a parking accident.

That's a good idea. I can even deliver for a reasonable fee within reason.

I just posted this up on our local club site.
The engine should still be under warranty. But, if the warranty is void for some reason. The cost of the engine and repairing the fender, may make it not worth repairing the car. He seems firm on that price.

aCab, are you the seller?

You guys are silly billys... It has a salvage title. Salvage = Mazda washes their hands of the vehicle.

Acab, I'll trade you a decked out AR 5.7 and some cash for it :-D
