This must be somebody's car FS on craigslist

Saw this on Craig's list

2004 Mazda RX-8 - $12000

The scammer gives it away with

"The air conditioner is ice cold for those hot summer days." Haha, obviously they have never owned an RX-8.

But those pics are not like the typical scammer pics, those are actually someones car not some magazine pics.

WEEEEEE I'm bouncing from AC thread to AC thread! I haven't cranked my AC to full fan yet, but I'm not expecting much. So much gawdam rain lately, I'm not sure I'll need it at all this summer.
I think there's a thread around here somewhere about a fix to make it stronger (dealer fix?). Can't remember.

Personally, my airconditioner on the coldest setting at at 3 fan speed is like as cold as a normal car (maxima, camry, what have you) at 50% cold (ie halfway between coldest to neutral). i can leave it on coldest at 3 fan speed and my car becomes "ok" when it's hot, but never cold. on the other hand, my coworker turns on his air con in his maxima and 5 mintues later i'm freezing.

if i turn mine to 50% cold, the air is warm. my air con sucks but i don't care too much since i don't use it that much and as long as it works enough to stop people inside from being uncomfortably hot, then whatever.

I did the air cond MOD to mine where you hold in the buttons ( saw the post on here thanks guys) and my air is ice cold!!! It was 92 here the other day and I had the ac cranked up and actually had to turn it down half way it got so cold.
