Is 1400 dollars to much for a 1985 mazda rx-7 with 160,000 miles? ---

It all depends. We can’t see or drive the car. How are we supposed to evaluate it? If the car is in good shape it may be a bargain. If it’s been pounded to within an inch of its life, and is mostly rust, then it’s not such a bargain. I’d want to know a lot about the car’s maintenance history with this many miles. A properly-cared-for 13B rotary engine can last a LONG time, but one that’s been ignored and/or abused may be ready to give up the ghost in a week or two. ---
