Yes, but this is something simple that can be searched, and that isn't how I meant it.

I meant that you're wanting a high maintenance vehicle that's going to cost you on it's own, yet you're trying to see if you have enough to buy the car, and have enough to make it look like the one you posted...That's a risk IMO...save the money for the new engine...lol

Regardless, I responded right before you posted.

get a g35 dude. theyre pretty nice, you can get one for about 10k if you know how to haggle, theyre pretty fast, and if you keep saving your money you can do alot to them. just be careful not to kill yourself in it, theyre not too forgiving and like i said, pretty fast.

I shouldn't have pointed out age...I was really aiming more toward people who know little to nothing about the rx8...They range from all ages.

It's just the younger ones who don't realize the financial aspects of it for the most part.

PM me when you are ready to part out plz, I am mainly interested in the interior pieces, door panels and seats, maybe the headliner. Thanks!

Don't let them scare you. The only "high maintenance" ones are the 04-05 model years. Buy 06 or up. Plugs coils and wires need changed every 30k roughly. Isn't exactly high maintenance is it? Other than that check the oil every other fill up. It's just like any other car besides that. On the forum you read horror stories while the other 95% that barely or never have a problem don't post here. Looks is a great reason to pick this car up. Once you drive it you'll love it even more.

My advice is spend the 11k on the initial buy. Get an 07 with 50-70k miles or less. You'll have much better reliability AND warranty if it does let go.
