Found at a local dealer in Madison: a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Asking price $6290. According to the dealer's description...

Here is a little history of this particular car: it was purchased brand new from a Mazda dealership in 1984 by a doctor, who treated this car like his baby. He drove it only between May and November, putting less than 2000 miles on the car every year. He kept mileage records in the book. He changed oil every year and car was parked it in a heated garage for the whole winter. This little Mazda has never seen snow in its life! When garaged it was always covered up. He drove it only with sheep skin covers on the original seats! List of recent repairs include: BRAND NEW CLUTCH, NEW CLUTCH MASTER AND SLAVE CYLINDERS, LOWER CONTROL ARMS, NEW BATTERY, RETROFITED (R134a) AC SYSTEM. This car, even though its a 29 year old antique, drives like a brand new car, you can use it as a daily driver any time! Car is 100% original, no aftermarket parts, real time capsule!

Now I'm not sure I want to drive a time capsule, but a 30 year old brown on brown RX-7 with a super fresh and clean looking interior like this is certainly interesting.

It also has a graphic equalizer AND a quartz clock.

I have no idea what this joystick is for.

But I do know it's not the mirrors because this is the mirror switch:

So, would you drop the $6290 for this time capsule?

He changed oil every year, so he just topped it up every so often?

Don't overlook the AUTO REVERSE TAPE DECK WITH SELECTABLE DOLBY NOISE REDUCTION.

Saddest thing is that the poor bloke who traded it in probably got absolutely fucked by the dealer. I'm thinking the dealer gave him around $2k

I gave it a CP but just barely. This should go for about $5500. My first car was an RX7, 2nd gen though

Fader/balance for speakers.

Except there are fade and balance knobs on the stereo itself.

Not sure what to tell you. The RX7 I had didn't have that head unit, but still had the joystick.
