1999 Mazda Miata - $6900
 

Category: Import
Status: Clean Title

I have a 1999 Mazda Miata for sale, in USA - Virginia.

Mileage: 111000 miles
Engine Size: 1.8 L


Asking price is $6900



For sale is a 1999 Mazda Miata with a 5-speed manual transmission. It is Twighlight Blue with black cloth interior. It is the federal emissions version with the Touring package which includes the 3 spoke Nardi leather wrapped steering wheel, power door mirrors and power windows. It also has the optional front air dam and air conditioning. I’ve since added the 4.3:1 OEM Torsen limited slip differential.

The odometer shows ~111k miles but the entire engine was replaced at 48,000 miles in August 2002 under warranty by Bob King Mazda in Winston-Salem, NC due to the well known and infamous '99 #4 thrust bearing failure. The previous owner was an ASE certified mechanic working at a Lexus dealership in NC and the first owner was one of his family's friends. So I have the complete history of the car in one binder (including a copy of the original window sticker and canceled check when bought new from the first owner.)

Track Modifications:
Konig Rewind 15x7 in gunmetal with a polished lip

The Bad:
The car has a few cosmetic blemishes which should not matter for any track car. The car is over 10 years old and has 111k miles on it so its got some rock chips and bumps and scrapes. I had a very slow excursion in turn 17 at VIR (Hogpen) where I lightly tapped the wall leaving only a few green marks on the front bumper and a slightly cracked front air dam (by far the lightest damage I’ve ever seen from any car going off at Hogpen.) I’ve since labeled and dated the marks and I actually get compliments from those that notice the marks. The rear bumper has cracked paint from someone who was nice enough to back into my car in a parking lot several years ago. The driver’s interior door card has a bit of a dent caused by my Sparco race seat (most fixed back race seats are too big for Miata interiors.) The hardtop was originally red, but has since been painted black. Its not the best paint job in the world but its only used for the track. The convertible soft top has a small patch on the driver’s side and only slightly leaks during very heavy rainfall (both wear in the top and leaking tops are known Mazda issues)
Located in Charlottesville, VA. I have the clean title in hand. No trades. If you've got any other questions, please don't hesitate to email me at maengelito (at) yahoo (dot) com.

Looking to get $6900 without the hardtop, $7400 with the hardtop.

Any chance you might be willing to trade some of the "race parts" for OEM parts and sell the roll bar?

I'm not looking to part out the car as its pretty well setup as it is right now for the track. Thanks though.

Not a problem. I just know its sometimes hard to move a modified car and often less profitable. I have a stock '99 so if you change your mind, send me a PM and maybe we can work something out.

He now has 11 and he's actually been a member longer then you ;)

An unneeded bump for a good V8 swap candidate

Why don't you PM BacDoc on NASIOC? He's looking for an autox car. He's in WV and a mod in OT.

Saint Foo, thanks for the heads up. I sent him a PM.

That's a fucked up looking turbo. They're not supposed to be made of plastic you know.

I can't seem to edit my original post. I'm now looking to get $6400 without the hardtop, $6900 with the hardtop.

Here's the service history since I bought the car at the start of 2007 (Google docs spreadsheet):
