What is AI's opinion on mismatched hardtops? Black top on white car, red on white, etc. And why isn't an OEM making cheap hardtops :mad:
Two tone Miatas look amazing. Vex's NB is blue/black two tone.

Are brake scoops on the nose actually useful, when there is no track work involved?

The airbox/intake is right behind the driver side headlight. Yes it is useful.

Picture taken with my new lens. Imagepup compressed the hell out of the file though :(

I just go in through the top. Put your arm down by the firewall and reach under the intake manifold.

Ok, so a 97 M with 57k on it, worth 6400?

It has also had the tbelt done recently.

For the same price you can buy my Silver 99' .

Alright I stand overwhelmingly corrected.

That being said is this still a decent enough deal if I am able to talk the guy down towards the TMV?

Edit: I am on a budget and don't really want to spend more than $5K on a vehicle, TT&L included.

Spend $500 more and buy my 99 miata.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I had sincerely hoped that a bit of research would do me good. Jimmy Jars and I have been exchanging emails about his NB. We'll see how it turns out. In all reality I don't really need a small sports car. I need a boring, very reliable, extremely fuel efficient commuter car. In my current path of work I can easily expect to commute between 30-50+ miles one way and sadly, the Miata really doesn't have the fuel economy I absolutely need on my budget especially in the days of $3+/gal gasoline.

Maybe I can pick up an old Saturn instead.

Fake edit: Phone, what is an LSD, and why is a torson swap needed?

Let me know if you changed your mind so I can go take the photos you want.

I'm saving up for a fun daily driver. I'm considering an e30 3 series or an NA miata. I'm looking to spend $4-5k.

Willing to spend a little more? You can have this fine example of a miata. I also want to whore out some photos I just took.
