Sounds like you should make a visit to Atkins to get a compression test on the engine
No way it shouldn't be running like a champ at 2K miles after a new rebuild
Not worth much without an engine

You are correct sir, eventually I'll have to fix it if I can't get any decent money for it like it sits...
I can't imagine it being compression it is a new engine but it would make a good selling point to have the compression numbers on paper.
We just got an AMG C43 and instantly lost all interest for the RX8 so we thought we would offer it like this first. Maybe someone wants an almost complete project.
