Question Is This A Good Buy??

http://autos.yahoo.com/usedcars/deta...PSZtbz0-#image

The thing that i am wondering is if it comes with an engine. But give me some feedback. Also would it be worth the time to fix up?

I just Found this one too. What do you think

Well, the first one has 13" rims. So, it is ether a GS or a GSL model. The GSL model has a limited slip rear diff. and an oil cooler. That would defenetly be the more desirable model. The way it's sitting, I would say it does have an engine. The doors are a different color than the rest of the car, so it was ether in an accident or it rusted out. There is a hole in the dash were the radio used to be. And the seat look shot.
The second one I wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole. It has a salvage title and a bad auto trans. The headlights are in the up position so the motor drive, for the lights, could be bad. The interior looks better than the first one. Radio missing here too.
Maybe you could by both and make a drivable car out of the first one. But, someone would have to see the cars, especially the first one, to make that determination.

I hope that answers some of your questions.

To me..... NO DEAL>>>.... My friend has a 1st gen rx7... And even thou I like the car.. Rotatry engines back then are nothing like now.. You may only pay a grand for it but you'll sink more money than its worth into.. Trust me on that one.. Or maybe my friend got the one dud.. Talk about consuming oil.. You'll put as much oil as gas in that old rx7.. Personal opioion thou.. Your call in the end..
