I'd get something less gay but that's just me and I'm not even gay at all.

I'd be too scared of buying a used Alfa unless it came from a dealer with a good warranty. Even new Alfas have heaps of problems (alot of electrical issues) according to my mates who work at dealerships (some brand new 07/08 cars were selling at 40%-50% discount a couple months back when I was looking for a new car).

There's a reason it's much cheaper than an MX5 of the same vintage.

Re: What do you guys think?

my cousin had an alfa exactly like that one except it was red and was a 3.2. we were drving down the road and it just turned off. no spark no pulse we couldnt get it fixed we even took it back to Alfa Romeo and they couldn't fix it. He ended up selling it for $10 000

An RX-7 in this price range is probably not that reliable.. wouldn' recommend it unless the OP wants to muck around in a rotary enginebay. Maybe a Celica or Supra would be better in terms of reliability.

Re: What do you guys think?

Firstly black is a shit colour unless you like washing your car 2 times a week.
Secondly get something less gay
Thirdly euro cars (especially italian ones like alfa) will send you broke if something breaks.
So Dont be a gay idiot.
