Looking for a 1.8 NA Miata.
Looking to spend 2-3k
:( It's kinda sad to see you shopping for a miata
I've been looking for months - you'll see some real clapped out cars come up on craigslist in that price range.Quote:

I've been looking for a sub $2000 '90-'93 but not I'm not willing to pay above KBB value. I even have a broker looking, but nothing that fits my requirements has popped up yet.
2K Miata It will be very hard to find one for less than $2000. Even at dealer auctions clean ones go for more than $2000. Watch Craiglist and be ready to buy as a good deal will not last more then few hours.
BR, so it is totaled?! It is so sad to see that car being totaled after you have spent so much time and $$$ on it. Are you going to moving the parts over the new car?
Even crappy ones go for close to that. I have seen about 10 NAs go through auction and I would not have bought them for half the price. Best deals now are NBs.Quote:

Why does it have to be a 1.8? Maan1986's seems like the best bang for the buck, most maintenance has been done on it.Quote:

Trust me on this and save yourself a lot of headaches and $$.Quote:

Thanks for the advice Justin. I agree with you. If I had major frame damage I'd be looking to swap my parts to another chassis. However I am "lucky" because he actually rolled over my car. There appears to be no frame damage or very minor if any. Rogue checked it out and said it is repairable. We will know more once he digs into it but so far it looks to be all sheet metal.
William, its not an NA, but I could see this being the Black Widow II

Park it on a driveway and wash it for cryin' out loud! ::Censor:: ::Rant::Quote:

- AT was rebuilt last year (very few miles put on it since)

- Few dents that I'm planning on fixing
AJ can vouch.
Slushbox? I'm thinking there will be not very much interest on this board that an auto.
It is what it is.
Ken O might be interested. ::BaHump::Quote:
