Looking at getting a 2nd Miata,
K so I have a chance to get a 97 Miata c package I think, it will be a second race car/daily driver for me so I can race in a few diff classes. Who do I call with the vin to find out if this car has a torsen LSD? Ill get the vin tomorrow... Thanks
Call 800-222-5500, Mazda North America Customer Service.
Note: That car is 15 years old. Unless it's been owned by the same person the whole time and you trust them, there is a possiblity that the rear-end has been swapped. Not a high probability, mind you, just a possibility.
The C Package designation ended in '94. But looking at the spotter's guide, if it has Cruise/Power Antenna/Headrest Speakers it has at least the Popular Equipment Package which included the LSD. If it has leather it has the PEP and LSD.

M3 is always the answer.
I thought all of c packages had LSD. Mine has LSD but it also has leather.

Well it's deff the blue color!!! But it's a 97...the interior looks just like that m with the leather and all options, so I'm going to assume it has the LSD till I call and see Forsure, should be a fast track car when I'm done with it..
C packages typically do have LSD and leather both.Originally Posted by motorollow
The '97M was Marina Green, so we know it's not that.
Good stuff here :

In 97 they offered and STO package that was blue and DID NOT come with an LSD. It is a darker blue than the 94M.

Not really looks like the 94m blue,
It could have ABS which would be a plus

Register the second car in a different class with Tony Clifton as the driver.
Titus has two cars, but he doesn't take them to the track! :)
