Seller’s notes about this car

This is a R (race) Package Miata - a factory option that added upgraded suspension and other track oriented modifications. Good cosmetic condition for a 31 year old car - typical chips and scratches but no big dings. No trace of rust. Interior shows some wear but is quite presentable. In excellent condition mechanically with more than the factory 132 hp from the 1.8L engine. I’d estimate it has 160 hp (at sea level) based on the modifications. This car has the following modifications: High flow Cylinder head and intake from 99 Miata. Racing Beat Air intake with washable cone filter. Port matched cylinder head. RPM switch installed to control VICS system. Jackson Racing Exhaust header. Flyin Miata High Flow Catalytic Converter. Flyin Miata reverse flow cooling kit. Koni Race, Single adjustable front adjustable height coilovers with 650 lb/in springs. Koni Sport, Single adjustable rear adjustable height coilovers with 300 lb/in springs. Lowered about 1.5” on the coilovers. Flyin Miata front Adjustable Sway Bar. Rear Sway Bar delete. Rear extended travel shock mounts. Front offset Delrin bushings. 15x7 Konig Wheels with 205/50/15 Nitto NT05 tires Wilwood Brake proportioning valve. Drilled front brake rotors. Sony Removable face CD/Radio w/Aux input. The engine short block was rebuilt at 131,428 miles (Victory Machine did all the machine shop work and part of the assembly and I did the rest of the assembly). It was not balanced by removing any material but careful selection and mixing of parts resulted in a superbly balanced engine that runs extremely smoothly to redline. The 99 cylinder head was rebuilt by Heads Unlimited at 126,800 miles The transmission was replaced at 127,525 miles with a unit from a 2001 miata with 12,000 miles. This is a great car but it is not perfect: Salvage title - I bought it this way and it obviously had the hood and front left fender replaced and I assume the front bumper too. No structural damage to the frame. I have had ample opportunity over the last 20 years to inspect everything under the sheet metal and nothing is bent and there is no evidence of anything being welded. I repainted the hood and front left fender to correct a color mismatch. The previous owner cut the carpet and folded it back to dry after being caught in a rain storm. As a result the carpet is taped to the transmission tunnel in the footwells. There is a small tear in the convertible top just behind the passenger door that has been patched. Original parts that come with the car: 14” R Package wheels with worn out tires. Rear factory sway bar.

I was recently given a 1994 MX5 for free due to the fact

I was recently given a 1994 MX5 for free due to the fact it did not have a title. My first thoughts were to just detail the car and sell it, But after driving it home, I was honestly impressed. I’ve now owned it for one week and in the works of getting the title and have no desire to sell the car. That little 1.8 5 speed manual won me over and this is coming from someone who has built many 70s muscle cars. The car is stock, and I plan on keeping it that way, except for some minor engine mods, changing the ragtop into a hardtop convertible and possibly a different rim & tire package.

I would die for this car.

The Mazda Miata is the best car to be created. I am not exaggerating, but I would honestly die for this car. I bought mine June 17th, 2018. That day is deemed the best day of my life thus far. I bought it off some chump for $1,000. It had 2 beat up fenders and needed new tires, wheels, alignment. It had been sitting for so long, it really needed me in its life to love and nurture it. # months in, the car looked brand new. Its SLAMMED! New wheels, new suspension, new seats, new steering wheel, the works! I am so in love with this car, if i go a day without driving it I die a little bit inside. This car changed my life. I used to be a depressed, sad, little troll. Now i am a flourishing, fabulous happy superstar. All because of this car, I got my life together and got my hair dressing degree! I will be buried with this car. Thank you Mazda, for this vehicle I owe you my life.

It's a Miata!

Everyone should own one. They are so cheap (mine was $3k rust free) and easy to maintain. Even in stock form, just an amazingly fun car to drive on the edge or on a cruise. The best car I've ever owned. A perfect second car to make you happy. Also huge communities with all the support and comrade you could ask for. Do I recommend this car? Yes! All the time, to everyone I know and everyone that asks me about it.
