I've decided to sell my 1993 Mazda RX-7 5 speed. I've had the car for close to a year and a half and its been in the shop for close to 6 months now getting a complete engine overhaul.
Car has a brand new street ported motor (complete w/new turbos, rotors, housings, etc.) with 0 miles on it. The car has yet to leave the shop but will be out once the wiring harness comes in. The car is going into the shop yet again for a brand new paint job and ding removal which will leave the exterior flawless. The interior is in great shape with some typical wear.
Its mostly stock with just a ported motor, intake, HKS Downpipe, Apex Turbo Timer, 99spec tails, R1 strut tower bar, and its sitting on some BBS RX 17x7.5 wheels. The R1 lip, 99spec "Mazda/RX-7" rear badging, and Efini emblems are on order.
I'm not in too big of a hurry to sale it as its going into the shop for a paint job, but I'd like to get the word out early. I'm looking to get 14.5k obo. These pics are a little outdated but its all I have.
Email me at vvillarreal10@hotmail.com if your interested. NO LOW BALLERS. I know the mileage is high, but you're getting a lot of car for the price.
Thanks.
Vic

Why are you investing so much money for a new motor, porting it, turbos, a paint job, wheels and selling your car? What's wrong with the car?
You are spending at least $3000 for motor, $2000 for the wheels, $2,500 for the paint job...that's at least a $7,500 investment just before selling your car (at minimum) for $14,500? How come?

Because everything was paid for about 2 months ago. I popped the motor about 7 months ago and both housings, rotors, among other things were trashed. So I scraped up the cash to pay for everything the car needed.
I just recently decided that keeping the car wouldn't be practical as I have to drive across town every morning from campus to campus. Having a car like this really makes crunching pennies difficult.

I'm in college trying to get into graduate school. I'm trying to be realistic with the price. This car will never sell for $17k based on the mileage. If you want me to raise the price I'd be happy to.
