I am in Michigan
looking to buy a RX8

what i have seen so far is

2004 cars with about 120k miles for $4 to 6 thousand dollars
2004 cars with newer engines for about $7 to 9, thousand dollars

then there's the low compression cars, what do you offer on these?

do you offer $500, $1,000, or $2,000

Price and value all depends on car's condition and most important, a rotary specific compression test of the engine. That is the only way to truly know the health of that engine. To rebuild or replace an engine will cost thousands, turning a bargain car into an expensive one. So get those compression numbers before seriously considering any used RX8.

Here is the RX8 club's compression test numbers chart. You want six compression numbers, one from each rotor face (three) per each rotor (x2); and also the starter cranking rpm, and your altitude in relation to sea level. Then you can check the chart to see what condition your engine is in.

Any car with known low compression only offer $500-$1000 for, as you will spend anywhere from $3000-$6000 replacing and/or rebuilding that engine.
