Damn dude! Sorry to hear that you want to sell it.

This car is definitely, and has always been, one of my favorite and most inspiring modded miatas. Everything about this car is just so well done. I'm more than sure you'll miss it, but you probably already know that. lol

You should go to a Porsche owners track day and run a for sale sign in it.

School is often overrated, if I had to do it all over again I would have bought a really nice suit and a ferrari.

+1 for a PCA track day. The Porsche owners have the money to drop on a track car. And when you're dicing with their $100k cars, the car will really get some recognition.

Lolz, the one PCA event I went to I was faster than everyone in my run group and I was driving an SSB Civic Si. I wasn't in the fastest run group but the middle one, still it was embarassing.

Similar to my experience, but I WAS in the fastest run group in my Spec Miata and there were very few people turning faster lap times than me. One guy went a whole session powering up next to me on every straight then lifting to let me keep going so he could watch my lines.

At first I was like there's another built miata in the classifieds for only $12K but then I saw which car this was.

If it does not sell in a month, I say get some pro photos and pimp it out to all the magazines and websites, get featured and sell that way.

Super nice!!!

And if you decide to part it out, I would buy the manifold and downpipe-- today.

Sometimes yes, and sometimes no. Not saying he should be taking my lines, but it appeared that was why he was holding back. Could have also just been that he knew I was faster through those corners and he was having a fun time following me trying to keep up there, and could always catch up on the straight if I got away from him.

What type of hood is this and is it available for sale somewhere? Seems like it would be decently functional unlike many other hoods on the market. Good luck with the sale btw, judging by the pictures you put a lot of hard work into this car.
