California - 1994 Clean and Custom RX-7

1994 Mazda RX-7, 5 speed, custom paint Blue Mica exterior/Black interior, highly modded

The car for sale is a perfect example of a well maintained FD. It receives plenty attention wherever I go. I've received so many compliments on the paint, mod choices, and upkeep/cleanliness of my car. It is rare to find other 3rd gens this clean and running strong.

*Unorthodox Racing Underdrive Pulleys, anodized blue

-Cooling-

*Aluminum AST

-Guages/Electronics-

*Apexi Power FC with Commander
*Greddy Profec B spec ii in a custom akiratdk din plate
*Greddy turbo timer
*Blitz boost gauge in a RE-A steering column pod
*White faced gauges, reverse glow with dead needles
*Alpine CDA-9855 Glide-Touch CD/MP3 Player
*Elemental Design 6500i 6.5” Component Speakers in custom fiberglass door pods
*Elemental Design Nine.2 Amplifier
*Elemental Design eDead V3 on the doors

-Suspension/Misc-

*Stance Coilovers imported from Japan by Rishie at AutoRnD
*AME Circular Spec-R BBF Finish 18x9 and 18x10 wheels imported from Japan by Rishie at AutoRnD
*Falken 452 255/35/18 front and 275/35/18 rear tires with around 90% tread left
*51R Battery Tray
*Ebay Torque Brace
*Ebay Strut Tower Bar
*California Car Cover, custom fit cover

-Exterior/Appearance-

*Efini emblems
*5% limo tint all around
*Painted R1 lip
*Feed headlight cover
*Intake piping, UIM, battery tie downs, and AST have been powder coated wrinkle black
*Glossy black interior panels
*Custom license plate frame “I love my zoom! zoom!”

MAINTENANCE

All maintenance has been done @ Mazda Masters, Rotor Sport (http://rotorsport2.com), and Rick's Rotary (http://www.ricksrotary.com)

The following was done by previous owner prior to me purchasing the car on 12/23/2005

*Motor - good compression on all faces, about 18 in of vacuum
*New OEM water pump
*New OEM O2 sensor
*2 New OEM motor mounts
*New OEM Oilpan

*New battery
*Bushings replaced recently and were inspected to still be in great condition
*Brakes still in good condition
*Oil changed frequently @ RotorSport (Royal Purple or Mobil 1 depending on what was available)OEM filters/OEM plugs)
*New OEM Fuel Pulsation Dampener

KNOWN PROBLEMS/NEGATIVES

*Rear hatch needs to be repainted, previous owner removed the spoiler that was on there and covered the holes with plugs temporarily
*Engine bay is still Montego Blue (Door jambs, hatch area, and other conceivable places were painted)
*Keyed on drivers side door, I will take pictures when I have the time.

CONTACT INFO

The car is located in Los Gatos, CA 95032. If you have any questions, offers, or details you need cleared up PM me, I am on this forum often.

GENERAL

The asking price is $19,950. I am fairly firm at the moment, but I’ll see what kind of interest I get and go from there. I am willing to lower the price down to $17,950 with the wheels taken off. I do not have stock wheels, so I will have to find and purchase a set of wheels (around a $500 cost on my part for good condition wheels and tires)

Any other parts removals, would be very time consuming and I’d have to consider it carefully, but like I said, I'm willing to work with buyers and will find a way to make it work, if you're close to my asking price and I am able to attain the stock pieces. Be aware I will need a non-refundable deposit before I part anything out.

In general: PLEASE don’t inquire about the car if you don’t have the means or desire to purchase it. PLEASE don’t ask questions in my thread that you can find yourself. PLEASE don’t ask me to part it down to a rolling chassis, or some other outlandish request. PLEASE don’t leave messages like “Will you drop the price? I have $12,000 in hand!” PLEASE don’t tell me to call you if I’m interested in your offer, I have clearly stated my contact info, take some initiative and show me you’re a serious buyer and I’ll return the favor by showing you I’m a serious seller. PLEASE don't tell me what KBB says my car is worth, and on that note I am aware that sports cars sell for more during the summer and I will not be low balled, this is what the car is worth to me and I am perfectly able to continue supporting this hobby. This is a sale of preference, not an 'I need money fast' thread.

Test drives will be given at my discretion (in other words no joy rides), and I may have requirements that prove you are a serious buyer or have the means to purchase the car.

For those that want to know why I’m selling, it’s basically because this car has consumed a lot of my time and money. While I do love my RX-7, I’ve reached a point in my life where at this time I simply don’t have the time for it. I’m also needing something more practical for daily driving and work. I often worry about vandalism to this car, and just recently it was keyed and I don't want to worry and stress about the car 24/7 anymore.

I am a very reputable seller on this forum and have completed some transactions with zero problems. Everything stated is the cars condition to the best of my knowledge. If you have any issues or concerns please make sure they are worked out before purchase.

Thanks for looking,
-Brian
