Question Need help, strange sound

Hi everyone!
I'm new on this, (Im not english speaker but I try, so srry if u don't understand at all) I read a lot in this forum because I have a 2004 AT RX8, but I'm searching for a manual RX8 and I found it, but, with a strange surprise and its the sound, nothing like all the videos I saw about low comrpession, so, please, I need help with this

It has, maybe, 100k kilometers and the car was imported and in the actual owner is the second one, tge guy doesn't understand what a rotary engine its so, he wasnt cappable to tell me more, I asked about spark plugs, because he told me too that he tooked out all of them an 2 were without gasoline and the other 2 with gasoline. (To see the car I need to travel 4 hours so, I want to know if it would be worth it)
heres the links so all can watch:

The videos are private, can't see them.
​​​​​​If only 2 spark plugs have gas on them, maybe the engine has been removed/replaced at some point and the fuel injector wiring was done incorrectly so only 1 rotor is getting fuel. It's a common mistake, you would just need to replug the injectors correctly.

Its idling way too high, all the dash lights are on and it might be running on one rotor. Run.
