Hi from Highland Village!

New Miata owner here!

Last Wednesday, I bought a 2000 with 95k miles with a hardtop. I probably shouldn't have for two reasons:
1. It has been re-sprayed.
2. It was leaking oil at an alarming rate.

Otherwise the car was clean and the price was fair. Happy to report that after a weekend of work, the leak seems to be fixed and I can't find any signs of an accident. :D

I replaced crank/cam seals, timing belt/pulleys/water pump/radiator/belts/oil/filter/yadda yadda yadda and it's running like a champ! And with the re-spray, the car looks pretty good, but not too good where I'm worried about dinging it.

Anyway.. plenty more to do on the car, but that's why I bought it; love having a project around. This car reminds me of my old DRZ supermoto - easy to work on, tons of modifications, and massive online support. Best kind of toy!

Welcome aboard! Nice looking ride.

Fun and easy to work on!

Welcome, have fun with your Miata.

Welcome! Looks like a good project.

Congrats! You're off to a great start.

Welcome! Have fun! I'm glad swine around here bought a Miata. I was starting to think it was too hard these days.
