The RX-7 Mazda is powered by a 275-hp rotary engine that can rev up to 10,000 rpm. Back when it was new, this car could reach a top speed of almost 249km/h (155 mph).

And it only took about five seconds to get to 60 mph from a standstill.

A YouTuber discovered this Mazda, WD Detailing, he said this is a “rare barn find.”

The YouTuber decided to restore it, and they started by washing the car. Upon inspection, they discovered a lot of dead mice and, curiously, ammunition inside the glovebox. They also found a bunch of useful documents in the glove box.

That’s good news because being able to provide extensive documentation increases the value of a car.

The car has now been cleaned and thoroughly wiped by the YouTuber. When the Mazda was still new, it came with an MSRP of around $31,000.

Similar models of it with a lot more miles were $60,000 to $70,000.

Considering the car’s mileage and current condition, the price will range between $90,000 to $100,000.
