    Bass boat green! I approve.

    Why is it that every NC I see with more than 70-80k miles has the bolster torn to shit? Is the seat material that flimsy? My NB didn't have that kind of wear at 115k miles.

    The steel frame underneath the bolster has a very sharp, angled edge, and it seems to shred the foam padding pretty quickly. Once the padding is weak, the fabric is loose and wears a hole in no time. If one were to remove the cover when the car is new and smooth that one edge, or put some duct tape over it, I suspect the seat would wear fine. Its akin to the z-fold vinyl top issue; a simple fix eliminates a huge wear problem.

    High milage! (92k) hopefully great service records and a top in good shape.

    Mine was just a hair over 100k and had no real signs of significant wear out side of track/autox-related things, like wheel bearings and brakes, bushings, etc. I think they are are durably-built as previous Miatas, with a much stiffer chassis that should reduce flex-fatigue issues. I plan to own another NC in the future, maybe once my son is out of college!

    It is pretty rare, even more so than Winning Blue.

    lol! I suspect it will be another NC1, but it will be much more "vintage" by then!!

    I've seen this car in person at the dealership when I had my car in for service. It is not in very good condition. Lots of little in the paint and so forth. They've had this car quite a while so it could be a good buy for someone.
