who just scored the 2010 R3 from Cars.com?
 
A blue, great condition (at least in the pics) R3 with less than 72k miles came up for sale on Cars.com for less than $11k on Thursday the 13th and on Friday the 14th it was unavailable.

I've not been on the site long, but I even I knew it was going to be gone quickly.

So was it someone on here that got it?

Such a deal if the compression was still good. Yeah, that's very a nice color.

An R3 for sale is kinda rare. There's always a 2005 Shinka for sale somewhere.

Note that this forum knows no borders, so your local Craigslist is probably not the same as the next member's. ;-)

craigslist is borderless - if you extend the search radius

It amazes me (not in a bad way), how the R3 prices keep going up, but the other cars keep going down. Back in 2017 I bought an R3 with 8,000 miles for $11k. I remember there was a Shinka owner wanting $15k for his car with 70k miles on it. He threw a b!tch fit when I offered him $10k.

Right now there's a 2009 R3 with 87k miles on bring a trailer. three days to go, it's $11k

just spent four or five days trying to sell my 2005 Shinka listed on craigslist in Daytona to a buyer outside Portland, Washington. No sale, but craigslist has more reach then some might think.

May want to add "rx8" instead of only "rx-8" in your ad. I could not find it when I searched "rx8." Good luck with your sale. Seems to be a very clean car.

Shinkas may be worth a lot to some people, but I do not see the hype. Seems to be like CYM on the Rx-7s. Yes it is a beautiful color, but then again it is just a color.

Great balls of fire! I did not realize how much Rx-8s shot up in value. I just did a little window shopping. I guess I have been out of the market for too long. The right buyer should come along for your car.

I've been a lurker on this site since I built built my rotary powered Locost (https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...ocost-super-7/) but haven't posted enough to list on here - yet.

Yes, and 2 weed wackers. A Ford V10 acquired last year, really put me over the top.

always admire someone that jumps in to claim it to be a “helluva deal” on a car they never saw or personally inspected including performing a compression check on …
