For Sale: 1988 Mazda RX-7 in Columbus, Ohio

Vehicle Description

Brokers and other people/entities that want to "help me" sell this car, PLEASE DO NOT CALL ME. I have no interest in your services. The only thing I am interested in trading for this car is cash, no thank you to any tweaked or tuned vehicles, motorcycles, alleged race cars, etc.

1988 Mazda RX7 convertible. The car has only three owners, I am the third. It was the last owner's "baby". He owned it for 28 years and kept it garaged. I have a copy of his title. I've had it since November 2016. It was sold to me because the prior owner passed away. This is NOT a project car. It is in good mechanical and physical condition, fully operational with good brakes and tires, it has current plates on it and it is insured. 131,200 miles. Odometer will keep going up --- I drive this car, but not on a daily basis. This car has not been restored . . . . what you see in the photos is the original paint, and it is nice and red and shiny. Frame is solid, no rust. Floorboards also solid, no rust. This is not a car that will require that huge amounts of money be poured into it. Red with gray interior. Five speed manual transmission. Prior owner intended to make a cross country trip in this vehicle (he passed away before he made it) and put some major bucks into engine rebuild, clutch replacement, etc., and other work to get the car ready for the voyage. That was done at around 129000 miles. I have the receipt for the work. Too all of those who contact me to ask "why didn't he just buy a new motor because that would have been cheaper?" Motors have serial numbers on them that match the car . . . . if it is the original motor. When you replace a motor you change the value of the car from a valuable historical vehicle to something just above the value of the scrap metal. The original owner loved this car and wanted to maintain it a manner that preserved its historic value, and that required keeping the original motor. Original interior in place and in good condition. Convertible top is original equipment and in fair condition. Spare tire, tool kit, jack, specialized tool for removing wheel rims, original floor mats, original owner's manual, boot cover and other accessories are present and all in good condition except for driver's side floor mat, which is present but shows lots of wear. Original Pioneer Car Audio sound system present and in working condition. Tires are good. Pop up headlights are fully functional. Minor damage to driver's side door . . . the prior owner at the beginning of his illness was trying to back his daily driver out of the garage and accidentally rubbed the door of the Mazda while doing so. If you are in the market for a vintage car that is in good, safe driveable condition, will not require much cash investment, and is enjoyable to drive, here she is! Title is clean and clear. This is a truly lovely little car and it is fun to drive.  Cash only. I do not ship nor do I deliver. I do not finance. Before I will allow you to drive away with this car, I must be paid IN FULL.
