    It looks perfect to me, and it's even white....

    I am always leery of an EBay ad that says everything is in Excellent condition. There has to be at least a few imperfections on a 100k mile car. Also, almost every early white Miata I have seen has had paint issues. As perfect as the paint on this one looks in pictures, I would not be surprised if it was a re-spray. Then again, if the price is right, I still might take a chance on it.

    Nice car!

    BTW... not sure what your airbag wheel looks like, or if you were going to ditch it or what, but my old one's not too bad. If you want it you can have it... I'm tired of kicking it every time I go into my closet.

    PM sent trickyrix.

    I'm so pumped... been out driving most of the evening!

    I need to get it titled to me, and inspected this month.... get 2 new rear tires before inspection (front are almost new), and do a brake job in the none to distant future. Other than that I think it's all good. Recently resprayed... cheapish paintjob, but ok from 10'. I need to clean overspray from the lenses. Also I am debating painting them white.... Any reason NOT to?

    Anyone have an OEM cd player for sale, or sitting in a closet?
    A boot (roof?) cover they don't use?
    Any other parts?

    Sorry Todd... I got Simon's PM first...

    Don't paint the lenses white, they're your turn signals/parking lights.

    The Haynes book will be a good guide to your brake job, but if you need help, I've done a couple...

    Congrats, one less person to compete with in my search : P. I recommend this book.

    I have the 1.8l version for my previous car, and it's really good.

    Congrats! The Enthusiast's book is a good one to have. Plenty of normal how-to instructions on Miata.net too.

    If that's the one I sent you I get a finders fee. Either way let me know if you need any help. That year model would not have a OEM CD player. It would have a AM/FM Cassette which I could probably lay my hands on but you wouldn't want I assure you. Congratulation!!! Let the spending begin and the joy be unconfined. Oh, wait....I'm supposed to be a sourpuss....
    If you're happy and you know it, think again.

    One I just heard:
    An optimist thinks the glass is half full
    A pessimist thinks the glass is half empty
    An engineer thinks the glass is twice as big as it needs to be
    A metaphysisist thinks there is no glass

    Oh, by the way the Texas Region SCCA is having a big swap meet next month, should be plenty of goodies there: http://www.autocross.com/texasregion/

    nope, was a different one... the one you found never contacted me via email, and the phone number was no good.

    im wondering if this would fit and just be a plug and play....
