I bought this car with the intention of using it as an AutoX car / summer car, but I just have acquired too many cars and am cleaning house. Pulled this out the garage a few days ago and just changed the oil. Runs great.
I used to be a Miata hater, but after driving it, I can say its honestly one of the most fun cars to drive ever. Granted it is a bit under powered, its still a blast. Has quite a few mods and they really tighten up the car as a whole.

• New plugs and wires
• Raceland stainless steel headers (DEI heat wrapped and coated)
• Racing beat exhaust with a sport connecting pipe

• Apex lowering springs (1.5" drop)
• KYB shocks

• DBA cross drilled and slotted rotors
• Hawk HPS track brake pads

i’ve been debating picking up another s2000 or a miata. this is perfect! idk what this would go for anyway but 2700 is well worth the amount of fun this car is
What blue is it? I was told that by the previous owner. Search tells me Mariner Blue?
Already had a NYspeeder drop by and take it around the block. A few more people scheduled for tomorrow. I didn’t think the price was that good, but hell get it out of my driveway.
if i had the money for this ive got a BP sitting here i could swap in and throw crazy amounts of boost through… GLWS. like everyone else has said. wont be around long for that price.
Had a few people come by yesterday, and the day before.
Heres a few things I didn’t mention in the OP just because I didn’t really think about it of they have developed since posting.
There are two small tears in the top, one of the tears probably will leak the other should not. I kept this thing inside so it was a non issue really. The larger of the two tears is about an inch long. I never attempted to patch it, but duct tape would work…
Over the past few days the speedo cable has been squeaking intermintently. Again not a huge issue, and apparently its a common one, but it seemed to bother the potential buyers.
Lastly, the starter has been intermitently ‘sticky’. AKA it will fire up and it will not disengage immeadiately and make a not so nice noise. This happens about 50% of the time its started. It seemed less frequent in warmer weather.
Trade you my toolbox for it, I paid about double what you are asking for your car for this 6 years ago, hadn’t been used in 2 years since I got out of the business
GLWS, this won’t be up for sale long, this is a great price.
