FS: 2003 Evolution 8
Ideally looking for around 22,000ish but it's obo of course.
I'm the second owner. Previous owner was my friend's father. The car has never been autocrossed and only been to one track day in it's life, and I used the Brembo/Ferrados that day. Looking to sell so I can go racing this summer (spec neon or kart).
Evo:
-Completely Stock
-45,000 Miles
-Apex Silver
-HIDs
-Small Wing
-Sunroof
-Dealer Installed Canards
-Vortex Generators (Just put this on. OEM piece. Will separate.)
-New Tires 2000 miles ago
-New Brake rotors/pads all around in February
Additional items that could be worked into the sale or sold separately:
-Front and rear Brembo crossdrilled, slotted rotors w/Ferrado race compound pads
-Extra set of stock wheels with Blizzaks
-Ebay British Style Evolution VIII Badge
-Rear Sway Bar (need to confirm brand)
-Extra set of tires w/about 50% tread, but two got nails in them and have been plugged/patched at Discount Tire. I had an extra set of new tires so I installed those. Tires had no noticeable change after patches.

The ebay badge is the one you are thinking of, only the I I I is all molded as one piece of plastic. It's not on the car yet.

The supras and Rex's did come down and went back up.
I had a pristine 94 RX-7 Touring that I bought for 8k, drove it for a while, then sold it with 61k on the odo for 13k. That was a few years ago, and now you can't get one as nice as mine unless you go to the upper teens. I only sold it because you are supposed to build the motor every 60k, which is a very slippery slope to spending 6k+ on the build.

I'm in Royal Oak. What kind of info do you want for the RX-7?
It's got K&N Filters, Ebay Hardpipe Intake, SRT-4 Intercooler, Greddy Elbow, Sreetported Motor, Petit Downpipe, Bonez Hi Flow Cat, and a Racing Beat Dual Catback. I've got a Petit Unlimited ECU controlling it all. Other than that, SSR Comp wheels and about five shades of Vintage Red
Here is a Pic of the Cars...I was bored yesterday.

I'm always willing to talk cars with someone interested so sure, if I'm around. Not exactly sure what I'm doing that time of year yet.
