Vehicle Detail
Please read the description! Overall the car is in good condition for the year and the pictures look good but the engine needs to rebuilt before the car will be safe to drive on the highway. This is a common issue with the rotary engines approaching 100K miles. The owner was driving this from Longmont to Boulder using back roads but the car may not even reach 50 MPH. It will run and drive but is too slow to be safe as is. Car is in good condition save low compression / power engine. Always serviced at the dealer, recent tune up, good tires and brakes. Mileage is 77,087. Needs engine apex seals and some TLC, ideal for home rebuild. Car will run and drive, everything works but power is so low top speed may be under 50 MPH! Battery is now bad from sitting 3 months. Great project car! The car is available for viewing at Courtesy Mazda in Longmont Colorado, 80504. Title is clear and can be picked up with the car or sent FedEx. Ready for a quick sale to a new owner! Elderly owned, driven until recently by 88 year old man, an original owner vehicle bought new...too old to drive a 6 speed now. Engine needs to be rebuilt! Battery is bad from sitting, one rear seatbelt needs repair-otherwise good condition. This is a good condition RX8 ready for an engine rebuild. Horsepower is very low; too slow to drive on the highway! Always well maintained at the dealer! Thanks for looking!
