Sadly, it's time for me and the RX-8 to part ways.
Engine needs a replacement and I'm just not willing to put the money into it at 225,000kms. I already had the current rebuilt at 180,000kms, about 2 years ago. Disappointed that I didn't get more out of the rebuild.
The car is a 2004 GT Velocity Red and has a bit of rust on the brake light on the trunk and on the rear wheel wells (even though it was Krowned every year). Other than that the car is in good shape. Will likely need a new clutch at some point in the not too distant future.
My question to the forum. What do you think is the best way to part ways with the car?
I'm not sure if someone would be interested in purchasing and putting in a new engine. If you think there might be someone out there interested, is the For Sale forum on here the best bet, or something like Kijiji or Auto-Trader?
I certainly wouldn't take the time or have the know-how to part it myself. Would someone actually take (i.e. buy) the car and do that themselves?
Or do I donate to some worthy cause? Kars for Kids perhaps.
Looking forward to your advice. This forum has been indispensable over the years.
