I went to the movies tonight and parked next to a perfect beater/budget racer for someone. It was a red MX6 GT turbo. the interior looked gutted with just 2 front seats, a dash and shifter. I put a note on the window to have them call me if they were interested in selling it. Looked like it was possibly a mexican-mobile. not sure..... maybe they'll call. I'll go look at it and see if its worth buying. Just wanted to see if any of you guys were interested in it IF it becomes available for sale or parts.

hmm....I happen to own a Red 1st gen MX-6 GT Turbo

this one is in kinda rough shape....what do you think something like this would go for assuming it's running and mechanically sound?

would it be worth it to me to pick it up and continue to gut it? I know the little 2.2L engine is pretty tough. Just wondering if its worth my time and money.

macdaddyslomo

assuming it's running decently and turbo looks good, I still wouldnt pay more than $800 for it..honestly I'd lowball him like $500

Roddimus Prime

cool. I may offer him the RX7 as a trade....see if he bites.

*grin* - that would be a good trade

yeah you can make them fast as ***** for cheap....I can eat mildly modified MSP's for breakfast.....F2T is a torque MONSTER
