Yes - I had 2 shops quote me around $4k to install a new motor, including the labor and motor itself. So, for about $12k you can have one of the baddest RX8s around. I really hate to sell it but I already bought another car and this has to go.

At this time, I am not going to part anything out. I am selling the car as a whole. I'll let you know if I change my mind. Thanks for your interest.

If I sold the kit separate, I would probably need $4k for it. I spend $1700 on the brand new dual ball-bearing Precision T62 and it literally has about 3k miles on it. I also had to get a custom turbo manifold made as the old one was cracked. This cost another $3k. So, I'm already taking a loss on it and the gauges cost over $500, which I'll throw in with boost controller.

I can't believe I still have this car! I know it's not running, but this car has everything and absolutely FLIES on the road. Would not sell this if I didn't have a baby on the way and a mortgage to pay for. Please help a fellow member (and yourself) out and take this from me!!

I may start parting it out soon, but really a last resort as I travel a lot for business.

the issue is, you're trying to sell to people who already own an 8! And, people looking to buy are wanting warranty.
I haven't read the whole thread, but are you trying to sell this via other resources?

If I was in the market, this car would definitely peak my interest. It's gorgeous!
GLWS!

I do have the car listed on some other sites. I understand that many most people here already have an 8, but I also know that sometimes people come here to look for them when they are in the market for a great sports car.

Thought it was worth a try for the exposure! I will most likely be putting the car on eBay soon. If I do, I'll include a link here.

Bump! Did I mention I ran down my buddy's Viper Truck with the 8.0 V-10 engine? He was freaking pissed! That's how bad *** this thing was when it was running, FYI. Of course I had to remind him I was only using 1.3 to spank him

Thumbs up Paypal

I'll buy it! With everything inside. Please don't take anything out.

Does the car have rust or dents? I saw the bumper.. Is the FMIC leaking at all?

Did you say you blew it up at 15psi? Who is Secret Service tuner?

Where's the COBB AP?

I PM'd you. Call me I'll grab it.

Awaiting your Paypal information for down payment. Can I come fly and grab the car from you this week?

All the best,
Mark

Thumbs up Congratulations on your new baby on the way!

Happy New Year!

I have arranged pickup of the vehicle from Houston, TX

When are you free to meet the shippers? Can you express mail the title to me please? Signed of course. Thanks again!

Also, I will wait for a bill of sale.. I think it will be best if you call me so we can chat about this.

Can you throw in all the stock parts, like the stock intake box , exhaust manifold, downpipe, exhaust system, etc. If you can fit all that in the trunk of the car, that will be nice. Thanks again!



Take care,
Mark

p.s. It's a graduation gift to my self. I figured I need a new project to finish now. I always wanted a 6 speed RX8. Thanks again. If you're ever in Cali, I'll let you take it to the track.
