Thread: New miata coming to my house...

  1. #1

    Default New miata coming to my house...

    Side airbag deployed so state farm totalled it. My gain. 15k miles and <35% of original price.

    If you can't fit in a miata buy a bigger miata.

    See, I read it the same way.

    The airbag went off in the white thing up top. So now old man up there just scored a nice track vehicle on the cheap.

    I figured I'd get my turn eventually. This was a candidate for a couple years down the road... Didn't really expect to find one at an affordable price (given my full-time-student status) so soon...

    So, what caused the side air bag to deploy? Any idea how serious the damage was?

    And congrats... great score!
