Make sure that you'll do the lean seach...and send your car to an inspection for sure.
Make sure there is no oil leaks, unstable compressions, etc...and kms...
I don't know, I'm not good at giving an advice so please ask someone else...

As timpo said. Frame Rust, Bends. Get a compression test forsure. Check the brakes all the normal stuff. See how well it has been maintained...

That TII anniversary edition is worth the money. Very nice car! Badges alone are worth over 100 bucks american...But get a compression test.

Yeah...and 110,000kms on the rotary...maybe time to rebuilt...but what I heared is that if the compression is okay, then you do not have to rebuilt.

That car is priced reasonably..The km's dont really matter as long as the compression is good..The 88 is also the BEST year to buy a 2nd gen rx7 (thats debatable, the 90 is also up there), it has the lighter body while it has better electirical then the 87 did..BUY IT..tell the guy $8,000 cash

No, it's not that I don't like them anymore, I'm just more open to other cars. I've yet to drive a TII and would still like to, I've just realized there are other options. I'm basically deciding on Turbo MK3 or an FC3S TII. I'm leaning towards the MK3 right now though.
