    That miata is for sale in my city haha. Too bad I already have two miata projects. One being a black 93 C-Package, but no where near that mint and low mileage.

    Of course this one would be kind of cheating as the original blue potato didn't start out with a tan interior, if I recall correctly. This will be a nice score for someone.

    It's priced right too!!! Go get it!!

    I have to say that I am tempted but I would probably have to put this car in service rather than use it as more of a weekend car. I'm still kind of looking for an RX-8 to fill more of the daily commute role.

    At this point I think the only people that would buy it are those that know nothing about miatas or someone that wants to part the car out. It still has a fair bit of parts that are worth something. Hell if I got a hold of it I would probably snag the engine and itb setup, diff, and exhaust for myself. Part with the rest especially those hideous wheels.

    Talked to the owner today. Said he may be interested in trading for my 2001 Honda Insight. Decided to post over here about my discovery because I found this thread from someone who directed me here from ClubRoadster. Approximately how many miles do you guys think is actually on this thing?

    This has been an odd day in the miata world for me. First, i learn that Rooster has been sold to a guy local to me which i finally get to see in person Monday(so damn excited). Secondly, I learn that whats left of the OBP is also in the same state as me just a couple hours away. Now im sitting here waiting to hear about a Sharka and Scrat visitation to Tennessee lol. I would love to pick this up so it cant get passed around anymore but ive already got 5 vehicles which of 2 are miatas

    Hi there! welcome to the site!! I looked in the past FS ads but nobody seems to list the mileage. Folks don't know how to list a FS ad anymore I guess. I hope you can get it and do this car some justice!

    I said it on another forum but I will say it here as well. Should the blue potato be parted out I want dibs on the pit crew exhaust.
