I joined this group back in 2012 or so, and haven't been on here for a LONG time. I'm ready to sell my RX8 and wanted to post on the for sell board, but when I tried, was told I didn't have permission. How do I do this? Thanks

 

hey Orange, welcome back.

do me a favor, go ahead and write up a FS thread here and I will move it to the FS section for you.

 

Thanks... I'm not sure if doing this correctly, but I tried to post pics on imgur. This is supposed to be the link:

My RX8 has even been started in probably a year or so, and not really driven much at all the past five years. Dead battery... last time started it, put in new battery, and it FINALLY started (after doing the flood routine!)... smoked like crazy, lights on everywhere, etc. It definitely needs work... I think new radiator? definitely brakes... and who knows what else. I've just gotten way too old to get in and out of it! Wife on my case to sell -- and I'll letting it go to crap sitting in the sun. Already badly faded on top.

Have no idea what the thing is worth. Think I may just put best offer and say I'm selling it by end of April or so.... or something like that. Any suggestions?

I'll write something up and send.

Thanks

 

FS (Georgia) 2005 Mazda RX8 Shinka Dark Cherry Red, approximately 135K miles. It hasn't been driven in a couple of years, just sitting in the drive. I'm too old to get in and out that low, and wife has finally said it has to go! Honestly I don't know what all it needs. Brakes a must! Probably radiator, paint now fading on top, front scoop, battery, a/c *****, inside it is pretty good except dash is cracked from sun and needs replacing. No major body issue (except front scoop), no body rust. I bought new tires for it probably three years ago and haven't driven it 100 miles since then. I have a ton of pics and can supply more info if you're interested. I'm likely going to sell to best offer by end of May.

Definitely a project car, but one in pretty good condition. I started it probably a year ago. it has been started about 2-3 times in last couple of years, so all the warning lights were going off, etc. Lots of exhaust. Let me know if interested. I can do a live video walk through if you want.
