CT My Rare Condition S5 Turbo II

Well, I'm selling my prized jewel on ebay. Just placed her on there yesterday. I call her Rei. My plan is to pay off some school debt and save up for an FD. Plus, I'm thinking of designing and building a motorcycle which will be a mix between a cafe racer and Board track racer, and need the funds for that. I hate to sell Rei the most of all the 7's I have owned. It's been the most reliable out of the 7 rx-7s I've had and the most mint.

When I bought Rei, I bought a one way ticket to Michigan to pick her up. The drive home was about 11 hours and it was the best road trip ever.

During the years of owning all these 7's, I'v learned a lot about whats a good sample of these cars and not. So when I saw here, I knew instantly she was special, and Rei had to be mine.

I am so freakin particular about the quality and condition of these cars. It drives me mad when somehting isn't right. I think that's why I love this one so much. Near flawless. I've had some of these pics placed elswhere before, but I felt it was time to devote a specific thread to this car. enjoy the pics.

Wow that's a beauty. 78,000 miles isn't a lot, but she looks to have no more than 30k. That is pretty disappointing you have to let it go. Hopefully some one as particular and loving of 7's as you can pick it up.

Holy ****. That is amazingly clean! love it man. Sucks your selling it. Just hang on to it long enough while its posted to make sure that it goes to someone that is going to appreciate it and take REALLY good care of it. Don't let it go to the wrong hands and have someone **** that up.

good luck, i know how you feel.... you could actually be a lil more worry free if you sell it, payin off debt, im at that stage right now.. knowning that if i make the sacrifice now, ill eventually have that FD or porsche 911 i always wanted later and be a overall better car then what i had.

That interior sure does look yummy
