WTB: Mazda 323 GTX

On the off-chance somebody has one of these and wants to let it go (or knows somebody who does), I'd like to grab one of these if I can find one in the lower mainland. If you've got one, give me some details and let me know how much. Thanks!

I've been scowering the buy and sells for one of these for a while now myself
Good luck in finding one, if I find one and don't end up snatching it up, I'll shoot you the info in case you don't already have it.

Last one on Craigslist I saw was apparently in 'good' condition, except for the grinding when shifting into third :S.

Awesome, thanks. I do know of one but it needs a ton of work and I can't seem to find the parts so it's off my list. Immediately it needs a tranny and new brakes all around (calipers, rotors and pads) ..and apparently to do that job you need to push apart the bearings. In the near-ish future it's gonna need a new long block and turbo. A bit much for me, unfortunately. :S

Ya, the rotors and the like on those cars are an absolute bitch. I had an '87 323, and had to do the rotors....just say I'm glad I work at a Mazda dealership.
