1999 Mazda RX-7

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$46,600
SOLD

One of the most legendary Japanese sports cars, the Mazda RX-7 is the one that truly dared to be different. While almost other cars have piston-engined powerplants, the RX-7 employs the rotary design pioneered by Felix Wankel several decades ago. Rotary engines are notably harder to maintain, but if done right, deliver smooth and powerful performance, as well as a distinctive soundtrack that is much-loved by aficianados. Also, they can rev pretty high, well over 8,000rpm in some cases. That’s why whenever an RX-7 like this 39,188-mile 1999 Mazda RX-7 comes on sale, they get snapped up quickly. This car resides in Tomball, Texas and comes with the legendary 13B-REW twin-turbo twin-rotor engine, a 5-speed manual box, a RE-Super G full widebody kit, and more.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$29,999

Remember Need For Speed Underground? The time when this famous racing franchise shifted gears and focused on the whole street racing scene? Well, one of the cars in that game was the Nissan 350Z. A fine sports car, it was highly sought after by players, and could be massively upgraded in-game, just like in real life. If you grew up playing NFS Underground and dreaming of a 350Z in your life, that time has come. Say hello to this 2006 Nissan 350Z from Chino. It’s done 73,000 miles and comes with some rather nice upgrades, including a shift towards forced induction! Better yet, the car still maintains a rather stock outlook on the exterior. So, you can either keep it as the sleeper it is, or give it a new look – the choice is yours once you take over this car.
