I saw a recent ebay auction on the supra which made me think of this car. I talked about fake auctions and prices that seemed too good to be true. This guy has had multiple auctions on this car, who knows the outcome, a buy now price of 30k, yet the same car is on autotrader for 11,999? Seems a bit odd to me, this is besides the fact that it is purple, T he whole deal is a bit fishy and car lloks like **** in that color. Good right up though, if it did have all of those mods and was worked on correctly, it would probably haul ***

Engine with 3500 miles on it... That's probably because it's the 3rd or 4th engine in 10k miles on the car...

Never amazes me the people that want to stick huge single turbos on these cars...

the one on autotrader is fake. the one on ebay is legit, i know the guy that built the car and he knows his stuff. his own personal car just went 9.95 at 4000 ft elevation. the reason the car has been there so many times is that he won't flex on the price and i don't think he's very eager to sell it. i also find it funny that no matter how nice, how much money, and how fast a car is you guys will find something to bitch about.

I just wanna know why purple?


If any color represents ghey , its the color purple.


I mean its a nice *** car, but if you got 8,000 to drop on a paint job I would have gone with the 99 spec blue or metallic silver, like the rx7 in those posters

Because he want's to rub it in right, you got beat by a purple barney?....

I think its a nice car, body mods are pretty nice choice, and the color isn't too bad considering. I agree he could have went with a better color choice, but how many purple 7 do you see not too many. I would not at all be ashamed to drive that baby.

the only other purple rx7 I have seen had a purple chameleon paint job, it looked great, wheels to match, im sure some of you have seen it

Yup it's me. I'm goin to take a look at it tonight. Granted, the color really needs to go.... but I'm not one to talk with my bright-a$$ed yellow baby. Now the only problem is finding someone to buy mine so I can buy his, hehehe.

why don't you ask him then? i'm sure he'll be more than happy to show you. funny how everybody always says "i'd like to see the dyno to prove that one" yet all they want to do is bitch, rather than actually see anything.

there are only two cars that can get away with that color. RX-7's, and Hemi-Cuda's.
