On Ebay as we speak,

I was offered this car fresh from Japan when i was still looking for a rx7,

Nice power figures were quoted at the time of approx 490bhp or so,

MMM real Advan Model 5 rims :yes you Don\'t see them every day, some big bucks there.

Nice.....

[d-king]

that engine set up looks a tad strange ???

[Oedipus Rex]

nice ducting for the cold air intake, very sweet. Looks like its still on twins so I guess it must have two monster twins on it. Crazy.

[peterwolds]

nice to see one not going for silly cheap price

[D1 WTF]

some nice bits, not really to my taste though.

i like the way they say full veilside including mirrors etc,   when the rear light cover, mirrors, headllights, diffuser etc are Re-Am.

as well as that i would be a bit dubeous about the paint work as i thought the japanesses couldnt paint very well??? or is that just a generalised coment???

also how come it says genuine 2004 show car when the model year says 1993?  (or is that just to define the shape?)

[rextreme]

I saw this at the yard in Japan.

We were going to bid on it but decided against.

Its a nice car, but a bit too wild in the wrong direction for what I wanted.

[olly-civic]

nice wheels but its a shame there like 50inch the car looks akward sitting on them, and them rubber band tyres are gonna offer and exciting driving experience

[Joeh]

I think its the show car used for veilside in 2004, thats why it says 2004...

[AtomicRex]

Also says Cost the price of a house to build....then up top says £5000 spent!

How expensive is it to build a house over there?

If they want stupid sums of money spent on an Rx7....Im welcome to a ****ing contest!

Personally I dont do the "see how many guages you can cram in a car" look!

As Sam rightly points out....few too many points that dont quite match.

19000 miles on a 1993 car? erm yes??

[Oedipus Rex]

its that Veilside front end that kills it for me. I hate that nose.

Hmmm. From my dealings with Autoego off of eBay they sell tarted up junk. Went to see a black Nissan 300ZX they had for sale not so long back before I bought my RX7. Based down Dartford way. Work off the street and keep the cars in rented storage. The car looked great. Nice shiny wheels (they\'re own). Nice freshly painted bodywork. Interior was knackered. Speedo didn\'t work. Engine played host to loads of oil leaks. Car wouldn\'t start first time, had to jump it myself to get it going. Looks great to the unsuspecting buyer. But to anyone who knows cars it was a tradgedy waiting to happen. Rather dodgy history and V5 details. But asking top money for that model of car. Seem they\'re asking the same top whack for this RX7. Hopefully this isn\'t just a shed tarted up to look pretty like the 300ZX was.
The company know about wheels, tyres and tints. That\'s about it. Mechanical wise they don\'t know much. If anyone was to buy a car from them, ESPECIALLY an RX7 with a rotary engine, I would get it checked out thoroughly before dealing with them.
Looks nice, though not my taste.

Well Gurg I would say you did the right thing, lots of cosmetics on that beasty and maybe not to everyones taste. Looks like you would be paying for the paint job, those wheels [everyone has an opinion] and a body kit you love or hate, dont seem to have much in the way of go, cant see the engine making mega HP anyone paying 10+k for that needs help. In my honest opinion:Laugh
