    Default Found a 1990 Rx-7......too good to be true?

    I found a 1990 Mazda RX-7 GXL (85000) kms...the interior looks like shit, the paint is peeling like a motherfucker. The car is at an auto wrecker..So anyways my question is IS IT TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE? what should I look out for?

    If it is:
    1) interior looks like shit
    2) paint is a mother fucker
    3) CAR AT THE AUTO WREAKER

    What's too good to be true?

    Explain the logic? Redline13000's RX& has been for sale forever and is $1200 bucks and was $2000. Better price, better paint, better interior, and it was running! And nice rims to Boot!

    I'd be a little wary - I sold my 1990 for over $7000, but that was about 3 years ago - and I haven't seen them depreciate TOO much. They still go for about $5000
