If the price is OBO, this could be a potential good buy for a no nonsense V8 / RWD / manual combo. Under powered but easily fixable. I'd just make sure the intake manifold is metal (recalls were made on the OEM plastic crap).

Good luck getting invited to any of the meets, in that thing. :troll:

Missing the headlight wipers
:rukidding:

On the upside, most of the important stuff seems to have been addressed.
If anyone is set on one of these, I'd hold out for a wagon version. Seen two near mint versions in the Whole Foods underground lot when shopping at the Cambie location.

Did anyone look at that 2004 CLK 55 posted a while back? It went from $6300 to $6500 and now to $7500.

The seller is a major flake. Tried to set something up multiple times and he always says he's too busy and will message me when he's free. I figure he's just a time waster so I've sent him a couple troll messages trying to meet up just to gauge his response.

tegra7 11-09-2019 08:59 PM

^ I was ready to walk out the door to buy that eg. Seller didn't answer my calls/texts then texted me back 40 min later saying he was offered $400 for it. Anyways he'll let me know if its still available in the morning.

https://vancouver.craigslist.org/nvn...005756657.html - TVR price drop to 19k, which seems suspicious but if it all checks out would be a great deal

trollface 11-10-2019 06:33 AM

Why is that TVR a great deal? That's about what they're worth and no one wants a TVR.

SkunkWorks 11-10-2019 02:49 PM

I'll take a Sagaris for 19k.

68style 11-10-2019 04:40 PM

I messaged the seller Sunday. No reply. You're probably not missing out.

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/...x-7/1471073804 LHD Rx7 - 10k, in Castlegar though

fliptuner 11-11-2019 08:45 PM

Won't post more details or vid, starting the car cold. Rust underneath, 1/4 was replaced, door handle busted, bunch of small things. Was for sale months ago for $12k-ish. Normally it would've been scooped up pretty quick at that price, so you kind of have to ask yourself why it's still for sale.

anxiety 11-11-2019 09:42 PM

^wait, you went to Castlegar/Nelson and checked out that car?

fliptuner 11-11-2019 10:43 PM

It's been discussed in a rotary whatsapp group I'm in.

Qmx323 11-12-2019 08:27 AM

10K for a rebuilt dusty RX7... I'm not seeing the hype, its LHD sure but yeah.

hud 91gt 11-12-2019 09:12 AM

I suspect in the not so distant future, any stock RX7 (more so T2 FB and FC) will be a treasure. They are hard to find and an icon of the era.
