Don't know of a '93 black and tan that's a 'Special Edition'. That said, with a hardtop and SC I think it's a good deal if the car is mechanically sound.

Is 4,500 worth it for that car?

+1 on everything Sammm said. It isn't an SE, but it is a nicely equipped Miata for a good price. It probably would be a bad choice for someone looking to autocross in stock class, but if these are the types of mods you see yourself doing in the future, this is a steal. The hardtop alone is worth $800-1000, and the mods he lists would cost you around $4500 (plus installation if you are not a DIY).

On the track, I am fearless.
If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.
1994 M Edition
CSP 67
Norfolk, VA. wonder how much rust/bondo it has?
Are FI Miatas required to have AGX shocks? Anytime I see an ad for an FI Miata, I always know that the letters AGX will be present.
Thanks for the replies guys!
Would this have the torsen rearend?
And yea, I was more thinking turbo than supercharger but I wasn't going to do it anytime soon if I did.
But the suspension is something I wanted to do also like the wheels.
I'm looking at a few lower mileage M editions- 96 and 97 mainly.
Looking at one in Austin, one in Florida, and one In St. Louis.
It will have a limited slip, but not a torsen. The 90-93 Miata came with a 6" rear that had the viscous LSD as an option. As a C Package car, the one listed should have that. In 94, Mazda switched to a 7" rear end with the torsen LSD option. the 7" (open or torsen) is much stronger, and the torsen is a better LSD than the viscous. It is very easy to swap a 7" torsen into a 90-93 car as long as you get the carrier, driveshaft, and halfshafts with it.
loan on a dang near 20 year old car? eek.
Norfolk is a long way to go for a $4500 car, and very likely to have a rusty undercarriage, unless it was a garage queen. If you're thinking of getting a loan anyway, and are going to sell a $5000 car, I'd give serious consideration to Tim the Teacher's 2003 for sale here. Its double the money, but easily 3x the car, and will be a complete package with nothing to spend $$ on, plus its a local car with a known history. You couldn't do better if you built it yourself. Also, a lot newer, so easier to have your dad take out a better interest rate auto loan.
