"Rooster" '96 Roadster - SOLD

"Rooster" '96 Roadster

Hello fellow gear-heads. Last year, I had the pleasure of acquiring the most charismatic and fun-to-drive car I've ever experienced. "Rooster" is a corner-stone of the Miata community and one of the most tastefully modified members. I have enjoyed every experience behind the wheel of this car, and love the smiles and joy it brings to onlookers and passengers. Up until this point, my daily was a ten-speed, and Rooster was my weekend and evening car. However, my time in seminary has led me to serve in a church and work at a school district while attending school. Therefore, I need a car with a little more compromise and utility. Rooster has just less than 47k miles, and runs great! Since acquiring the car, I have replaced every fluid, have driven it at least once a week, and religiously kept the car clean. My father taught me to maintain a car like I am selling it tomorrow. This is arguably the cleanest NA Miata/ Eunos Roadster in operation, and deserves a loving home.

That is a thing of beauty.

Bummer you're having to sell it already.

[Cxmoney]

Beautiful car! Needs a stainless rollbar and forced induction to be 100% perfect though!

[theothersawyer]

Randy, buy your car back!

[—Martin—]

Yes! Then it will no longer be "Phat's old car" ;)

[— Phatmiata —]

Randy, buy your car back!

I would have to sell the 93LE in order to afford that

[★ smaeda ★]

Oh damn.

[— Grip Driver —]

Not necessarily. Buy it as a Mazda Roadster "marketing" expense. You should be able to deduct your advertising.

This is the car that inspired me to go red interior on my white 1994. Good luck with the sale.

This was my exact plan. Nothing else on this car is necessary. Really. And not even that really. It's one I will surely miss. I just need to react with the times and make moves however. My original plan was to have enough time to buy a dd and keep this, but life is moving quickly.

I really really want to give the car a shot as a whole. I don't think anyone wants Rooster - wheels.

He's got a point

Glad to hear it was such an inspiration. The emotions this thing evokes is crazy. It's the only miata I've ever really loved at first sight. Thanks!

I keep forgetting about that!
