Although I didn't purchase a vehicle, they were willing to beat the price I negotiated with the other dealership.

Simply Outstanding
My son and I own this car. Easy to work on, inexpensive parts and pure driving pleasure. This is our second Miata. The N/A, first generation Miata's have a special place with enthusiasts. I'd be weary of heavily modified versions from backyard mechanics.

Honest and Trustworthy with Great Deals
I have bought three vehicles from Miller Brothers. They are honest, efficient and do what they can to work out a good deal! I have asked Bob in advance each time I am looking for a vehicle and he is so great at finding a reliable, affordable vehicle each time. Miller Brothers is one of two preowned dealers I trust in the area and the only preowned dealer I trust or buy from in Lock Haven/Mill Hall, PA.Honestly I have not dealt with others other than a new car dealer in the area, one of whom is my go to for new vehicles. I highly recommend Miller Brothers for your preowned vehicle needs.
Fun and Reliable Car
Fun car to drive, it's small but I'm 6ft tall and fit in it just fine. Handles like it's on rails, great little parking lot racer or high gas mileage daily driver.

I recently purchased a 2002 Toyota 4Runner, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of service I received. Even though the vehicle was affordable, the team treated me like I was buying something worth hundreds of thousands. Their attention to detail and commitment to my satisfaction made the experience exceptional. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a genuine, customer-focused car-buying experience!
Fun, nimble roadster that corners as-if on rails!
A truly wonderful roadster that is fun to drive, easy to maintain and one of the most reliable cars I've ever owned. It sticks to the road as-if it is riding on rails. Fun fun fun, even with the top up!

My experience was excellent from the test drive.
My experience was excellent from the test drive. to the financing/purchase, right to the point of delivery. Pricing was reasonable too, and I felt like a valued customer every step of the way.
One of my all time favorite cars
A lot of people hate on these but that's just because they've never driven one themselves. It handles unlike any car I've ever driven and is so easy to work on. There's also a plethora of aftermarket parts. One of my favorite cars by far.
There are 20 matching cars close to your year range.
