Bought from a scrap lot for $600. The original owner dropped a new engine it, started to misfire, thought engine was blown (like the last one) and scrapped it. Just needed a tune-up.
I originally offered 2K because I knew the value but they only wanted $600 being the surefire know-it-all mechanics.
And yes I do come from a background with rotaries.
EDIT:
Yes I told them what it needed.

This thread is awesome! I just bought an 05 in this colour and am rebuilding the engine over the winter. Can't wait to have it looking like the cars in this thread!
Yes indeed, i wrapped it in matte black to buy me time until i could get it repainted. The paintjob was going to ****. Only took me $200 and 3 weekends.
