ILUVMY88CABRIO 05-17-2002 06:14 PM

What year? How many miles? Original engine? Ect.

'88 tii 34k on original engine. one owner. i guess garage kept. y'know, a creampuff.

vosko 05-17-2002 11:51 PM

i'd say $5000 MAX

phinsup 05-17-2002 11:54 PM

Yea 4500 to 5500 is what I would say.

mmm what about a 1990 GXL 134,000 on chassis beautiful interior/exterior. Turbo swap with awesome compression,120 psi on both rotors. Everything works awesome yada yada yada. practically all mechanical **** replaced in the entire car?

ok, well i looked at this 88 tii w/ 34k origional miles. lets just say that this is the most flawless tii i've ever seen. unfortunatly rust bubbles are already starting (barely) on the sunroof. anyway the engine is the smoothest rotary i've ever heard, and the interior is flawless. he's asking $6900. if i should talk him down, whats the best way to do this?

I dont go by set price on most non retail items....



I feel the cheaper ...The better....

UniqueTII 05-20-2002 01:35 PM

I didn't know you were looking for a TII. I would personally pay $6500 for a flawless car, but that's just me. There is a danger in buying a rotary with miles that low, though. I hope it was driven hard now and again.

rotarychainsaw 05-20-2002 02:39 PM

What danger could there be? Carbon and stuff from all the lazy drivin'? Anyway the guy seems cool, i'm sure he beat on it every once and a while. I offered him the maximum blue book ($4500), he hasn't called me back yet, but hopefully he's so rich that he'll sell it to me just because i'm an enthusiast! :bigok:

Won't happen to me, then. My Seven sees 7-8K RPMS daily. Given that, I'll probably throw an apex sooner or later.

rotarychainsaw 05-21-2002 12:50 AM

Wow, i never really knew that could happen. you'd figure the lower the miles the better the engine, no matter what. <_<

I have put 30K on my TII with no major problems...unless you count the smoke. I hear I'm pretty rough on cars. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
