    No affiliation. However, in the interest of full disclosure, I do, technically, know Wayne Reid. He and his wife are old friends of my wife from before I knew her. I met them once.

    It looks like this car may have been in an accident as it's missing the passenger side 10AE badge. Since they're individually numbered I can imagine finding a replacement is next to impossible. The paint is also suspiciously nice considering it's 11+ years old.

    So...I suppose the price isn't that "cheap" if it has, indeed, required body repair.

    That said - the car appears to be well maintained as the blue interior bits are still nice and blue. I looked at one of these when I was shopping for my Miata and it was so nasty on the inside I almost refused to test drive it.

    Heck, I'd sell mine for that if I could ever get it away from my long enough.

    They come with driver side badge only.

    Holy crap, you're right. I never noticed they only came with one badge. I take back my suspicion that it's been in an accident. It may just be a super clean 10AE at a good price.

    Default Has ABS?

    Too bad it does not has pics under the hood. If this thing has ABS, it would be the car to have!

    I think all the 10AE's came with ABS (and a 6-speed).

    ABS is over rated. IIRC not all 10AEs cane with it.

    Check out the paint work around the 10AE badge, looks like a not so great respray. Also check the gap between the hood and front bumper cover. Other than that, very nice looking car. I think somebody would just need to see the car in person.

    BTW, ABS is not over rated.

    I think that Darron65 was the only person in the world to buy a 10AE without ABS.

    BTW, ABS is not over rated.

    Looks alot like an AE I looked at before I bought the car I have. Problem with the AE I looked at was it had resided in VA, and had small signs of rust hiding in tucked away places.

    I agree, it's been tapped at the very least.

    I have run through 4 10AEs, Only 1 had ABS. I do have a 5600 mile one with HT and ABS in my garage and a 5800 mile one at the shop awaiting thrust bearing play measurement. My favorite NB other than a Lava Orange MSM.

    Look at the fitment around the left headlight. This car has definitely been in some kind of front end collision.

    FWIW, ABS was an option on the 10AE, and ABS is definitely NOT overrated.

    Yeah nice car, wish my interior looked like that.

    US spec 10AE's had ABS as an option, along with the trunk lid spoiler and maybe air conditioning. Other markets were different. And FU, jrj512!

    It won't sell at $7K, so let's up it $800.

    Only 7K put on it in the last six years? Got to wonder where it was from 2004 thru 2007.
