That's pretty ironic, djmtsu.

I still wonder, though. is it realistic to expect to pay $4k for the type of RX7 I described? Is the rotary in that car any more or less reliable than the one in my RX8? Is the turbo version less reliable than the NA version?

Looking through craigslist I have seen tons of FC RX7s - almost all of them either convertible or NA. I simply would not buy a convertible or anything with an automatic transmission. I could be tempted to get a NA perhaps.

It's funny. I look at a lot of FC RX7s and 240sx's on craigslist. A large percentage of them do not have functional engines. I don't blame the cars though. I blame their owners.
