No clue who it is but I'd rather have the Porsche he is also selling - http://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/cto/2246722830.html

[goofygrin]

He's been selling that Porsche for a few months now. It's about $5k overpriced (at least).

Well, I don't know if Rebel's car is still available, but he's only asking a few dollars more than that white NB, and in my opinion, Rebel's car is much better -- lower miles, better equipment, and a great first owner...

I still have it. In fact had the 60k Service done since I posted that thread. New water pump, timing belt, blah blah blah..

[Jeff]

I have a 95 montego blue 5 spd with koni yellow's and gc coil overs - I just really want an NB, and since I already have a miata I'm being VERY particular. Rebel, I LOVE the idea of your car, I just don't think I could do the tan interior. I REALLY want a blank interior NB

[goofygrin]

I'll attest to the niceness of Rebel's car. And in the 100* august weather it won't melt your ass follicles to the seat...

That miata belongs to one of the guys that works at Top Speed in Addison

[Jeff]

Harley, do you know the guy? Is it a clean well put together car? Things with carbon fiber, power coated intakes, and fart tips usually scare me towards the rice burner mentality. The emails from the listing were coming back from someone named Teresa

[harley]

I'm guessing Teresa from top speed also, but from what I saw it was pretty clean, a little more CF bits in the interior then I would like. Didn't sound too great from the fart can but wasn't too bad. Not really sure how much NBs go for so don't know if its a good deal or not

I believe this NB is ether a base or w Touring package. If that is true, it does not have a limited slip diff and 14" wheels only. If it still has the OEM suspension, it would have been toasted already too!

[Jeff]

thanks for the info, harley - do you know anything about that?

FS: 1999 Mazda Miata MX5 Sport

107k miles, $4996 in Coco, Floriada (Orlando area)

Fly out, do Disneyworld, drive back. I've got Miata friends in the area if you need a PPI, or, I'll be out there for a Miata event on the 23rd and can look at it if it's still around.

Can't see that, not a member and registration is disabled :/

Here's the ad:

Well, the spousal unit has a 2012 Fiesta SES on order now so this fun ride has to go to make room for the new one. The Miata has 107K on it but runs like a top. This is the highly desirable Sport model with minimal frills and the autocross ready suspension system. Fact is we bought this car right from an ad in this very forum 5 years ago, so it is only fitting that we post it back in here.

Extremely well maintained and in excellent condition, complete service history since we took possession is documented. Recent clutch job, rotors replaced, timing belt, water pump, tune-up etc. Nicely equipped with the Mazda factory Hard S suspension package, 5 speed manual transmission, factory air, power steering, AM/FM/CD player. Additional performance parts include 16" Kosei Aluminum Racing wheels, Mazdaspeed stainless steel axle-back exhaust, Koni Yellow adjustable performance shocks, Eibach anti-sway bar, Hawk HP+ brake pads. Comes with convertible top boot and genuine Mazda car cover. For the fuel conscious, it gets 28+ MPG.

This baby is a STEAL AT $4995 Additional pictures available on request.

holy crap! yeah I want that! What year is it?

I also found this one:
http://www.autoworldsales.net/webtem...px?iid=3083012

Not as nice for sure, but I can pick it up local. I was reading this - http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/articles/mazda-miata/ and if I am not mistaken, does the SE have the good diff and suspension? It's got the 6 speed so I'm thinking yes.

[mk2tmr2]

That blue car is a steal. It's a '99.

The '02 SE is nice, I guess. I'm not a fan of the Saddle leather interior. But you can do like doppelganger (this guy) has done and swap it out for some of the other special/limited edition blue stuff and it looks good.

If I were you I'd go for the '99 sport.

[Jeff]

I was wanting to stay 01 up for the vvt, brakes, bracing, and wheels. I'm in the same boat with the saddle leather, and had planned on swapping out the seats.

[modernbeat]

If you buy the '99 and pick it up the weekend of the 23rd, you can caravan back with mk2tmr2 and I. He's apparently picking up a low mileage NA in Tampa.

I got 2002 with VVT and a Six Speed and I still miss my '99 Sport......
