And I picked up this baby this morning. 1999 10AE Miata. 87k, not quite perfect condition, but she sounds and feels unbelievable. ![http://i434.photobucket.com/albums/qq66/jcruiza120/CIMG1008.jpg](http://i434.photobucket.com/albums/qq66/jcruiza120/CIMG1008.jpg) I had planned to go to an auto auction this morning after my Subie got totalled last week, and when I saw that there was a Blue 99 Miata on the block I just told myself “naaaaw it’ll just be a base model” … Sure enough, a hardtop 10AE. Figured I’d never afford it, the way it looked. ended up spending more money than I’ve got, but a LOT less than I could have. This car was always out of my range, and all of a sudden I have one now. Good carfax, a couple of dings and scrapes, but structurally sound. Now, to pay it off, and then the real fun begins 😃 ---

nice, theres a local guy who has a drop top with the cage and some nice looking track style wheels on it. ---

Love it. What does 10AE mean, aside from removable hard top? ---

10th anniversary edition. Basically means it comes with every factory option but ac and the hardtop, as well as a full unique blue color setup inside and out, and some other goodies. This one had those two options as well XD. I’m so psyched. Getting it inspected right now. ---
