Question FS: $16.5, 2004, 6 speed manual, 34k Miles, Sunlight Silver, Philadelphia

I moved to NYC almost two months ago and I haven't brought the car. I doubt I will. NYC + RX8 = Recipe for Disaster. I have seen what NYC does to cars and I don't want my RX8 to have to see that.

I really don't want to, but it is a huge expense for something I am not using. If I want to bring it up here, my insurance will go up, plus I will need to pay at least $200, but probably more for parking. At that cost rate, I might as well just buy a vette.

The car has been in one real accident ( https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-discussion-3/ford-f250-super-duty-vs-rx8-91214/ ). The windshield was also replaced because some kids at the same apartment complex shot it with a BB gun ( https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-discussion-3/stupid-people-really-iritate-me-81744/ ). Both repairs were performed by John Kennedy Mazda. I was also a candidate for the new engine, that was put in, also by John Kennedy, at around 26 or so thousand miles.

I have maintained the car very well, Royal Purple has been my oil of choice and I have been religious about 3000 mile changes. I replaced the air filter with a K&N filter (not cold aire intake, just a regular box).

I currently have Richard's Short Shifter installed, it will be included.

I also have an extra set of winter tires on stock wheels that will come with the car. The car has both the Tire Repair Kit (Never Used) and also a Spare Tire (Came installed with the mounting kit, also Never Used).

Feel free to ask any questions and I will do my best to answer them. Apologizes for the pictures, the car is sitting in Philly so I can't take pictures of it very easily. You can see some pictures in the threads I mentioned. Although they aren't the most flattering, they are honest. I have been to racing classes so I have abused plenty of their cars, but always been gentle with the RX8. (That doesn't mean I don't red line it though, in fact I try to red line regularly).

Details:
Sunlight Silver
Red/Black Leather Interior
Six speed Manual
Heated Seats
Heated Side Mirrors
Dynamic Stability Control and Traction Control
Xenon Headlights
Bose Nine Speaker System (I think it has nine, could be seven)
In dash six CD changer
Tire Pressure Monitoring System

If you end up purchasing from me I would be able to bring the car up here. Which part of the city are you in? Do you have off street parking?

I am interested in purchasing your winter wheels. How much will you let them go for?

I'd prefer to sell them together or after the car is sold.

I have to say, it's been a while since you'd posted about this car, and with no pictures might I add. I think this thread has been, and IS STILL dead. Let it rest in peace... no one wants your car, including you...
