I'm looking at an rx7 and I need to know if this is a good buy.

THe rx7 is White, it has 80,000 original miles on the motor, but had the moter rebuilt 9 months ago. The rebuilt motor has only 10,000 miles on it and it sounds like A dream. The interior is like new and it all looks very good.
it is a 1990 rx7 turbo 2 selling for 3000 dollars. is this a Good deal or not??????

I'd say thats a good price, check the FAQ for tips on what to look for, so you know what you can expect from the car, maintenance wise.

I've already had a mechanic look at it and there are no leaks, compression is good, Nice clean engine, runs smoothly, gets about 190 hp, everything is in wonderful condition.
and for those who are interested............I already paid 2000 of the 3000 he is asking
so in a couple of days it is mine.

THanx for all the imput and help
much apreciated

**** dude, i've seen people get even better deals than that. I know a guy who just picked up a garage-kept, super clean '87 T2 with 120k on the body and a brand new Bruce Turrentine rebuild for $1800.
