Hi, welcome to the board. You can check out autotrader. There is usually a big selection of Miatas there. Good luck in your search, I'm looking for a 99 sport myself. :D
'92 what a great car that was my first Miata! Sold it late last year to All88 it was awsome car except for the fact it cause me to buy 2 more miata that I still have! ;)
Welcome to MME!
Welcome to MME!
You'll find that there are several Miata owners that own/have owned several Miatas in their lives... plenty of answers abound!
Welcome! Plenty of nice Miatae for sale in the DFW area. If you find one worth checking out, let us know.
Welcome...I saw 2 more red ones for sale here in Arlington this week. Where do you live?
Midlothian. I have ticket problems with red cars though::Censor::Quote:

Welcomeaboard!
Found & bought a well used 97' I have the feeling I'll be pretty good at wrenching on Miata's in a year or so:D
Congrats! You'll find these are very easy cars for DIY wrenching. Details! Pics!Quote:

It'll be a daily driver so I don't plan on doing a lot to the body, but plan on getting everything else as close to perfect as I can.
I notice Mazda Heaven isn't too far from me;)

Hope to see some pictures of your's.

I work in Waxahachie, commuted to Dallas for years, finally got a job close to home, and a raise to boot.
Actually we like before and after pictures....We like all pictures...
So how about it?:D
I don't want to go out of the house, it's too nasty, but I promise to post some pictures.Quote:

WOW, aren't you the lucky one, I drive to Garland every day. 38 miles one way, could be better, could be worse. I have a company van so there's no travel expenses.Quote:

Welcome to the group!
I'd been eyeing that car on Craigslist since it seemed so nearby. Nice buy!
Since upkeep generally means upgrade in my world, any thoughts on dropping in a 1.8 in place of the barely running 1.6?
I'm sure you could find some eager hands locally to help, pass tools around or at least to permanently borrow a few bottles of your favourite drink. ;)
Yep, a 1.8 upgrade is a definite possibility, will prob go for a recycled engine.Quote:
