Help !!!

Hello, so I am interested in buying an RX-8 and needed help to see if this specific RX-8 looks good to buy or at least look at. https://www.streetdreamsnj.com/11407...s/Details.aspx

First of all, that's a GT, not an R3. The sunroof is a dead giveaway.

Don't forget to do a rotary-specific compression test. You will have to have a Mazda dealer or a rotary shop perform this with a special machine.

What type of questions should I ask the dealer?

A piece of advice to help you get better help:
Use a descriptive title. Many people see "Help !!!" and ignore your post because figuring out if your thread is going to be worthwhile or a complete farce isn't worth their time.

That said, UnknownJinX's advice is good.

Yeah, it's just a nice little convenience to help members not waste time on a thread that they'd have no interest in. So, in future, instead of titling it "Help !!!" you could say something like "Help - car won't start!" or "Buying an 8 - questions to ask" or whatever.
