I purchased the car to learn the Miata culture. I am a Tech inspector for SCCA with a specialty in the Spec Miata series. I purchased this car knowing I would dig deep and learn as much as I could about the components. That is why this car has had so much done to it. Receipts for maintenance and upgrades over the time I have owned it (8 months) total $7800. I am done with it--and it's phenomenal.
$7000 (LOWERED TO $6750 ***NOW $6450***)--I am selling it for what I paid for it in Fall 2011. It's an incredible car and wonderful on long drives. Has spent its whole life in McKinney, TX
Needed to keep this short--I will post pics and provide receipts/maintenance records to anyone that wants to see what has been upgraded. Just watch this post for updates.

Nice car! GLWS.
Really interested in looking at this car. Unfortunately, I'm training with the TX Guard in the desert around El Paso. Won't be back for about 2 more weeks. I'll definitely call you when I get back.
Any chance you can add a few more pictures? I'd like to see the entire exterior.
I'm new to these Miatas, so here's a possibly dumb question: Are those door bars removable? Are they welded or bolted in?
Will post more pictures this weekend.
When Gary S. and his team installed the door bars, I asked that he bolt them in. Though welding really stiffens up the car, I wanted to be able to remove them if needed. I will have them professionally removed if the buyer would rather have a bit more "ease of entry". The hoops can also be removed.
Best,
Paul

New price--$6750
The door bars have been removed.
Aahhh--the space!

Took off some bling that will easily sell on CraigsList. >>>Original steering wheel/airbag going back on.<<<
So, accordingly, price drop to...$6450 !
(New owner will have dibs on any of the parts I've removed.)
Paul
Last chance....
PM'd you
>>>>> sold! <<<<<
