here's a $28,000 Rx7 :facepalm:


1988 Mazda RX7. An absolutely stunning vehicle in pristine show room condition. Fully restored from top to bottom, no expense was spared on its meticulous restoration. A well documented $26,000 was carefully spent in order to make this car into a breathtaking masterpiece.

A true pleasure to drive with ample power coming from the ultra smooth rotary motor. There is nothing quite like owning and driving a vehicle that feels like it just left the showroom floor. An abundance of features that makes driving this car a dream.

Meticulously maintained by an owner that cares

Please call to set up a time to view the car or for additional info and pictures. Full restoration photos also available.

ahhh craigslist (http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/cto/1049599782.html)

Holy shit... yeah its in nice condition, but 26k... really?! I wouldn't even pay that for a good condition stock FD. And wtf is with the stupid stripes...

You can probably import a pristine condition version from JDM land for 1/6th that price.

IF it is as restored as he says it is then it might be worth $6-8k but if you seriously put $26,000 into a vehicle it is usually because this particular car is your absolute dream car and you want to keep it. By dream car I mean oldies like this not new stuff.

well I was referring to most classes of cars excluding ford/chrysler
There was a lot of money dumped into my car(not by me) that's what I'm trying to say

even though that rx7 is old etcc not turbo etcc not drop top etcc there is still 26k in it...

That's just wrong in my opinion.

It might not play a role if you are able to find that one select buyer who is looking for a vehicle that old and in that good of condition to pay that much more money for....

...but those buyers are far less common than the average lot of buyers who are not willing to pay extra coin for a "fully restored" vehicle over one that is simply in "good" condition.

So your chances of finding a buyer are significantly reduced...and in turn affect the overall worth of your car, "fully restored" or not.

yup that's true, but there are still people that are looking for cars that are not produced anymore, what if I told you that the car had 34k actual distance traveled, it's 14 years old, and there was a bunch of money put into it upgrading/maintaining it ?

$25K in this market? I don't think so, I hope I'm wrong for your sake. Is it just me, or does it seem like the enthusiasm for RHD has waned a bit?

And if you're buying it in japan, then 60K means, like the earlier poster said, less than $1000, so that hardly seems like a significant amount of upgrades...

Sensitive little fella, ain't ya? Okay. It's worth a million dollars, minimum. Hell, you should be charging us just to see the one picture you actually have. And based on that $1M value, you should be all over the $50k RX7 this thread used to be about.

And if you have anything left in your budget after that purchase, I'm sure I can find you a $100,000 1991 JDM Civic with a wicked-fast bolt-on wing and racing wipers from Canadian Tire with your name on it.

your price of $25K is biased on american LHD examples from that website, because they aren't allowed to import cheap JDMs like we can, its still a huge thing to them for all the 280hp japanese 'supercars', of course they'll pay $20k+ for stuff like that because it's the only choice for them.

there has been a few 600+ hp T78 skylines sold through various importers that i've noticed over the years and they barely scratched 16k ish.

your price of $25K is biased on american LHD examples from that website, because they aren't allowed to import cheap JDMs like we can, its still a huge thing to them for all the 280hp japanese 'supercars', of course they'll pay $20k+ for stuff like that because it's the only choice for them.

there has been a few 600+ hp T78 skylines sold through various importers that i've noticed over the years and they barely scratched 16k ish.

Yes that. The price is based on the condition/investment read the entire thread.
Those GTRs did not have 60k invested into them plus you can't compare condition

My 25k is not based on american LHD examples, and it's not JUST from that website, I just gave a sample from the market

sample from the market.. show me another JDM 600hp Z16A chassis with full parts and labour records in OUR market and i'll believe you (not USDM or anything in Japan, something landed/registered here)

and why cant you compare the condition of the GTRs, proove it, did you do inspect every single one and get a full teardown list of everything installed and verify that there are such and such con rods/pistons etc visually? or is your 3800 lbs mechanics nightmare of a supercar incomparable to anything else..

I'm not even going to bother because :
You are a nobody, You're not worth my time, and so far I never made a single bad investment

and again since I've made this investment it's for me to know and for you to find out... Or you can keep being a uber s13/honda fanboy

Sure, i'm a nobody, 1 of 50k+ on this site that knows nothing about cars and hasn't watched the +/- 5.5 years of JDM importing craze and prices gone through and heaven forbid i've ever worked on a 6G72 and would rather squeeze my hands in 10 piping hot VG30 engine bays (no offence Z32 guys) before ever working on that mitsu 6 again.

According to your posts on the other sites with other usernames, your photobucket accnt tying them together and you stating the cars you own, i've gathered you're in the same class as the 'uber s13/honda fanboy', you're a car-porn mag specs/forum info 'tuner' who does the 1+1 cold air intake HP addition, you couldn't find your fuel filter and FPR or tell dirty water from coolant or power steering on your corolla (http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=239699), or 'what oil do i put in my RX7 (http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?p=9010735) ?', heres a kneeslapper, what about your amazing attempt at troubleshooting trying to find out if your car has ABS or not from mkiv UK (http://www.mkiv.co.uk/vbb/showthread.php?p=2220709):

I think it will be the same outcome with summer tires
There are safer methods like feeling the pedal pulse or hey i might be talking out of my ass but.. looking for an ABS module in the gdamned engine bay :banghead:
but totally seems fitting for someone who parks their flipped cars at their parents house and talks like they're king shit JDM car owner know-it-all extraordinaire here but cry out for help on other forums.

I'm not saying you dont have a 600hp car but as said above many times, $25k in our CDN market is really doubtful especially a year or 2 down the road when there will be more models avail for CDNs to import.. 600hp or 280.. GL

oh back to your incomparable GTR price comparison, can't answer me cause the users on your other forums didnt reply yet? er wait sorry, 'not worth your time' to back your statements up i guess?

There is no doubt that 6G and VG have one of the most cluttered engine bays, but the only way that I would end up with a honda is when I'm broke or when I have a family.

Damn, all this time I thought the car forums were a source of help, I guess I was wrong

lol about your kneeslapper, did you pay any attention to how it was worded? The car was 2 weeks from being landed in Calgary and what better way to find quick info about a car I've never had then to goto the forum ?

Sooo whats wrong with parking my cars at my parents place if they got the space and if they can watch over them? King shit ????????????.....

Proving you wrong about my GTO would not benefit me in any way, I already know the info that I need to know about this specific car, that's probably why I've made this investment.........

Can't believe you're so pathetic that you have to goto other car forums to dig up random conversations, but I guess you have nothing better to do.

forget about the gto being 25k just remember S13/DA9 <4k

Not to hate on you, but the engine bay looks like it has some stuff done to it for sure, but from the photos we have seen we cant really justify $60,000 being spent on it. Thats 4,691,929.720 JPY.

I mean from the Engine bay you can see it doesn't have any serious suspension modification or intense turbo modification judging by the types of piping used. BUT! i am curious to see the whole ride and 10k even for a really clean low KMS GTO with nice mods is pretty fair i would think.

and as for beyond.ca being a place of help haha man you need to learn its long been forgotten as a place of help. Its more random rants and honda hate / JDM hate / any hate really as long as the right people hit the forum. Ive learnt to just sell parts and get out.... OR else i end up as iam right now. :facepalm: haha.

Your noob statements/questions are plastered all over the Internet bud sorry for the truth of the matter, it took me all of 15 mins.

wow who gives a flying fk if the car wasn't landed, I rest my case you're a fact based JDM flipper who talks out of his/her ass, you didn't/dont know anything about automotive mechanics and you still can't answer my gtr question.

Who tries to drive ANY car down a hill in summer tires during winter to find out if it has abs or not?? I don't care how it was worded, the final response from you in that post was 'rofl guys I tried it haha, I needed a tow cause I ALMOST hit a car' fk self proclaimed automotive 'techs' like you shouldn't have a license or be able to sell vehicles to joe public for safety reasons.. ( not talking about the knowledgeable garage mechanics on here, just you and your intelligent troubleshooting methods)

*cue gtr specs comparison diversion*

Edit: forget about me ever saying my winter beater and such were worth 25 or 4k :confused: I wasnt the one who came here swinging dicks about the price of my 600hp 14 year old car..
