A clean running example that is road legal is easily a 25-30K dollar car I think the asking price would be very fair if it wasn't for the damage.

Judging by the damage it looks like the car was backed into a wall. Meaning there is probably a lot of damage to the frame and of course the hardest part to fix the quarter panels.

Id love to resurrect this car but id want to register it and that could cost quite a bit if its even legal to register. I think it should be as long as its basically a RHD copy of the LHD models we have.

I noticed the inner aprons seem to have sections missing. I'm not real familiar with RX7's but Iv never seen holes that large in an apron. If that's a jdm thing it would probably have to be replaced with the usdm ones if they are not cut out like that.

All in all Id hold on to that baby. Could be a sweet car and I think no matter what you get for the car your probably going to feel robbed. But hey maybe someone is cool with it. It is a rare car to get especially in RHD and especially at this price point but for this car that seems like a lot to ask

GLWS!!!
