1991 Red Turbo Miata 56k miles - $7,000
edit: car is located in Indianapolis, Indiana
$4k OBO AS IS
I keep going on and off thinking about selling this or not. I've been needing to just buy a Honda Civic so I can't do any more modifications! My plan is to sell this, use the money to pay off my debts, buy a cheap civic, and in the future start over with another Miata when I have money again! :-)
PROBLEMS SPOTS:
1-Small vacumm leak, believed to be causing a random slightly high idle
2-Scratch on passanger side door, not huge at all, but I couldn't buff it out
3-few scuffs on top of the hood from not soft cloth
4-2nd gear blew up
MODS:
Performance:
-55,000 miles on car
-40,000 miles on JDM Engine, all work done by AIM Tuning
-5,000 miles on new intake manifold
-ACT Extreme Clutch with organic pressure plate (2,000 miles)
-IHI Turbo charger (Corky Bell kit) (10,000 miles)
-Bell Engineering intercooler
-cartech BOV (blow off valve) (I have a DSM 1G BOV I'll throw in for free)
-cartech APFR
-boost gauge installed in vent (with light kill switch)
-Koni Yellow Adjustible sport shocks
-1.8l Miata injectors (210cc I think?)
-Replaced VLSD (will be added before sale)
Cosmetic:
-unique style 7 chrome wheels with tires
-custom mounted leather racing seats (needs some racing harnesses!)
-Racing Beat Style II chrome style bar
-Chrome Vent Rings
-Chrome gas lid
-Altezza taillights
-Carbon Fiber interior trim kit
-Vodoo shift **** (i think it is)
$4k as is

Indianapolis Indiana, sorry forgot to right that. Post updated. I am willing to ship with those car shipper things, provided buyer pays shipping cost.

Sure thing.
The only ones from the back are when it was jacked up covered in dust during the ACT clutch install. :-) Here's a few of the engine. I'll get better engine pics and back pics and all that this weekend hopefully.

bump for asking $7,000
I have the Audi picked out I'm buy. I'm just trying to get a sale. I can't believe I'm doing this for $7k. Whoever buys this car better take good care, I'll miss her a lot. :-(

Winter is the worst time EVER to sell Miata's. :-) I recommend never doing that.
I don't know how low I will go, but I will considering ANY offer. (if it's under $10, I won't.) :-)

YUP. :-( lol Ok, Loki 2G's. haha
If anyone does want this, provided there can be a BIG chunk of the money down, if you are 1 or 2 g's short, I can work out a payment plan on the rest.
Just make offers, it's time to rip me off!

I'm still deciding between an Audi A4 and this '03 Evolution I've had my eyes on. I need something nice, moderately fast for now (mostly to build up my credit) Hopefully in the future comes another Miata. This time, I'll start with a built engine. Then find a car to put it in. :-)

Hey, I have an 03 Evo for sale if you are interested. It's completely stock. PM me if you are interested.
Funny that I'm considering the same replacement car (A4).
Nice car btw, and good luck with the sale.

Boy, everything's in the timing . . . I'm only 2 hours away and I just sold my TT quattro. I would have loved to have talked about a partial trade. Drats!
Go for the A4 . . . awesome car! The 2.0 is a good motor, and chipped will make you smile . . . thought not like a Miata!
