Why are these 23 year old cars 20,000 dollars plus?! When will this meme die?!
Because they are the greatest sports car ever made?
>>14463852
there's not a lot of em and most are well maintained inside and out.
except for the engine on id say half.
you can find one every now and then on Craigslist with blown apex seals for "cheap"
what type of cunt cares how much cars they don't even want cost?
>>14463887
Who said I didnt want one?
>why is the best car ever made so desirable
gee idk anon maybe because it is
where's the door handles on these bitches
and they're not that much unless they're twin turbo
>>14463852
I would say the top 2% are worth that much. The rest of them are beat to fuck or have a shit ton of miles on them.
>>14463852
Welcome to the world of collector cars.
You gotta pay to play.
>>14463908
Corner of window
And they're all twin turbo
>>14463908
>where's the door handles on these bitches
Behind the window
>and they're not that much unless they're twin turbo
All FDs came twin turbo
why are jza80s and FDs so fucktarded expensive when 3000gts and 300zxs can be had for pocket change.
>>14463916
Wrong. Some of them are single turbo.
>>14463923
>3000gts and 300zxs
Because they are junk
>>14463916
>>14463917
really?
well fuck me, good on mazda I guess
>>14463923
Why are 69 440 chargers so expensive when you can buy one from the mid 70s for Pocket change
>>14463928
Not stock.
All of them came with factory twin turbos
>>14463928
None of them came single turbo
You're thinking of the fc which was either na or single turbo
Same reason these still go for 30k. People want them. And are willing to pay for them.
>>14463935
What's your point? Most of them aren't stock.
>>14463953
so why doesn't mazda make something like this again?
apparently (some) people still want this kind of performance
>>14463934
It amazes me how quickly muscle cars went to shit. The charger is a great example. 67-68, good. 69-70, goat, 71-74, shit, 75+ fucking garbage.
>>14463963
Emissions
New rx in the works so we will see how that goes
>>14463929
3000gt was the fastest JDM halo car though. and 300zx are easily in the top 10 most beautiful cars of all time.
>>14463934
false equivalency.
>>14463852
Just get a C5.
>>14463974
>fastest
Does not mean best
>>14463937

>>14463963
rotaries are shit
mazdas are garbage
anyone who wants an fd can just buy an fd and have the real deal. we have this thread every single day.
>>14463984
no FDs were single turbo or NA stock.
>>14463987
lol this guy.
>>14463987
mpg's, yeah and >apex seals
mazda aren't garbage, but nice opinion
also nice hyperbole
>>14463997
So you're saying an FD with a single turbo conversion is cheaper than a stock one?
You can get the second best thing for much much cheaper, OP
>>14464003
In which post did I ever say that? Stop putting words in my mouth.
I just checked my cities kijiji and there is a 92 with 250000 km on it for 3800. What the fuck are you guys on about?
>>14463998
>>14463995
look i like the rx7 but get a grip on reality. mazda produces lower end cars no one would ever pay the equivalent cost of a rx7 today for one. the rx8 pretty much confirmed mazdas sport car days are over.
>>14464008

>opposite of truth b8
Super tired of this shit
>>14464003
Please dont feed the retard
>>14464017
Not him but are you autistic? None of those posts said a single turbo FD is cheaper than a stock one.
>>14464028
> and they're not that much unless they're twin turbo
> and they're not that much unless they're twin turbo
> and they're not that much unless they're twin turbo
holy fuck are you retarded?
then he goes on a rant about how well
some of them are single turbo because they've been converted
what exactly is the point of this line of conversation if not what i've pointed out?
>>14464025
>brandfags can't accept what the market already has chosen
Nobody is paying $60,000 for a mazda sports car. Mazda hasn't made a real sports car in over 20 years. Their market share is long gone. Just like mitsubishi.
>>14463945
I see you haven't been paying attention to prices lately.
>>14464042
>>14464039
>>14463928 here, I'm not >>14463908. You're a fucking moron.
>>14464017
I posted first about the a non turbo FD being cheaper, not knowing they didn't make any. Didn't make any of the other posts though, relax.
>>14464043
WHY?!?!?!!??!
>yes heres 70k for a flying brick
Because they're amazing cars that will not ever have anything made like them again. The RX-8 just proved that.
>>14464047
welcome to reality. the build quality, and the brand, just aren't at that price point. mazda builds appliance cars and their shining star is the freaking miata. Nobody will pay 60k for a mazda in 1995+21 years anymore.
>>14464052
yeah because it's always obvious when it's two people talking to the same person in the same line of conversation.
>>14464043
Rare old car with no miles
Yeah you can charge whatever you like for it as long as someone's willing to pay for it
At the end of the day it's a RWD proto-3800 with a turbo so it's not actually anything too special
>>14463963
There are rumors of an RX-9.
>>14463914
I've seen this charger at a local car show. 528 hemi. Talk to the guy and he said it used to have a viper transmission but as he got older he knew what he had and put an auto in it
>>14464074
truth hurts doesn't it doritoboy. face it, you don't have the 60k to buy a new rx7, and those that do will laugh at the badge and sticker price and buy a much better sports car.
contrary to your belief, mazda does not build new cars for the used car buyers market.
>>14464065
speed3 and speed6 are very enjoyable cars
>>14464052
>>14464053
>wew that timing
>>14464065
never try to reason with weebs
>>14464078
>he believes them
>>14463963
>emissions and safety rules
also JEWS
>>14464090
Is it fair to say that the Mazdas at that time are essentially Ford at its core?
>>14464102
Nope
>>14464096
I didn't say I put any stock in them, but Mazda never shut down rotary development.
>>14464109
3 nips drawing triangles once a week doesn't make much difference in the grand scheme of things
>>14463852
Because rotaries make retarded autistic wannabe bros feel like special snowflakes.
They're the College Liberal who isn't actually liberla, hasn't got a clue what he's talking about and still over zealously champions shit that makes him sound like a fucking retard, of cars.
>>14464123
That's a nice ass.
>>14464123
pigfat disgusting
why do doritos make pistonfags so mad lol?
>>14464127
It's actually small as fuck and under 2900lbs
>>14464123
So is mazda going to have to buy these back too when consumers realize they were lied to about the horsepower?
>>14464123
>he believes them
>>14464123
that looks disgusting
wow, good job mazda
>>14463923
FnF meme cars.
>>14464080
Nice would love to get myself a 67/68 some day
>>14463974
If by fastest you meant "slowest and most likely to break" then you are correct
The only fast one was the GTO MR (weighs less, no stupid gimmick tech, and significantly shorter gearing) and that wasn't ever sold as a 3000GT and there is no USDM equivalent
>>14464090
They are enjoyable cars but they also aren't sports cars.
>>14464477
>and there is no USDM equivalent
Why is it that you guys missed out on all the good Jap shit?
>>14464477
Those times must be from the 91-93' cars. The 320hp 94'+ 3000gt will do 160+ and 0-60 in 5 seconds flat.
>>14466611
mercedes whining in the late '80s
safety and emissions requirements
GM:
>MUH GENERIC FWD WITH SHITTY V6
>MUH COMPETITION
>>14463852
rx7s aren't as bad as the supra or gtr
I found saw on CL for $15k with recently rebuilt engine, clean on inside and out
>>14463891
Hurr durrr. What is supply and demand???
