how many miles on it?
|
~112k on the chassis. i only want to trade for an rx8 because i want something newer and i've had 6 rx7's (2 fd's), just wanna do something slightly different :)
|
where ur located might help. nice car btw
|
Looking for straight trade/rx8 + cash only?
|
oh sorry i'm located in louisville KY
straight trade. |
Good Luck............I sold mine to a guy in Norway.....then bought an '04 RX-8 GT MT ..'cause I wanted something newer....just like you......now driving an '06 MX-5 GT MT .....wanted to have some fun, but wanted better gas (work roundtrip is 60 miles/day)....so the MX-5 trade was too good to pass up.....couple getting ready to have their first child traded it for a CX-7.....terrific price only 9k miles.....Still love the look of the RX-8.........hoping for the future.....meanwhile....saving a little on gas.

They should catch the drift that all rx8 owners go "ooOOOoOoHHHh AAaaaAhhhHHhH" and post more FT's here. I wonder if 8 owners know the value/ true problems/fixes of 7's...

lol thank you. in fact, i've been daily driving this FD for 2 years now with very minimal problems, probably as few problems as the rx8 guys :) now, with the haltech, it's even smoother and more reliable than stock with thermo-fan control, better gas mileage, better timing and fuel, etc. |
PM me your details. I have a heavily modded RX-8 that you might be interested in. Just to clarify, the car is in good running condition, correct?
|
Damn, I'm so tempted. I live in lexington, but I just love the rx8 sooo much!!!! ahhh
|
i would even trade my evo for that lol

correct. i daily drive this car and it runs very smooth. also, i forgot to mention the BAD stuff about the car, which isn't a lot, but needs to be mentioned: oil pan seeps slightly, but no oil drips or anything. 5th gear grinds (common fd problem) door jams were not painted when the previous owner had the car painted (car was originally montego blue) several nicks in the paint and several touch-ups, but nothing major, as you can see in the pics. |

Silly people who mess with mods in the wrong ways have certainly lowered the reliability reputation these cars have thus making finding a truly clean rx7 difficult. I only was pointing out that many rx8ers seem taken away by the 7 but may indeed not know that much about them. I was extremely close to hopping into one + daily driver; there's a reason the stigma/joke lives that one should have twice the value of the car when purchasing - half will be needed for maintenance. I love the third gen 7 (fan of the first gen at heart though) and respect it immensely. Your car is clean. Just making a comment :) |
thanks for that enlightening post, tiltmode43. :)

I took "I wonder how many people know that these cars aren't total basketcases like the interweb and such would have them believe." like it was directed towards me :uhh: Clearly the car is :icon_tup: so no worries... |
