Darn. was hoping to offer some cash for her. Do you know how much she sold for? Oh well,I'll keep my eyes open for another one. Thanks for the help everyone.
I do believe Y8S was speaking of you , not the car......:gay: Ah, come on back here girl. The car was overpriced and you don't know the true condition of it. It was worth $2,500 max. More like $2,200 - You might be able to get it cheaper. It is from Chicago and it was a repaint. The first thing I would check would be underbody and rocker panels in front of the rear wheels for rust. A Magnet test works pretty good. An engine swap is kinda iffy unless you trust the swapper. I would never trust anyone that says this or that engine came from a car with XXXX miles on it. (Take a full compression test and leakdown) Email the EBAY SELLER (eddy770) on the ask questions of seller part at EBAY link and find out if the car is still in his possession. Ask hin how much he will take for the car. Get back to us to keep us updated. LOLA |
Lola, we both know it's hard to value a car based off it's upgrades, but I think your $2200 appraisal is a bit on the low side. That is, unless the car does turn out to be a rust bucket.
I would say $3k, maybe a little more right now with the summer season adjustment. Again, assuming the car is not a rust bucket. The car with the torsen, tsi's, extra bracing, etc certainly does look like it should have a turbo. |
Ben -

If it is NO RUST, then yes, the car may be worth up to $4K - That is if the cobble together is properly performed - And only a visual inspection and a lift could possibly tell. |

Melissa, you may not like that ACT XT clutch very much. Depends on your inseem, leg strenght and shifting abilities. You're looking at a heavy pedal and a short engagement period.
IMO, however, that car may be an ideal platform to turbocharge. But it's easy to make a whore look like a princess in internet pics. I wouldn't buy it w/o seeing it and getting a buyer's inspection. The platform does have 190k miles on it, despite the milage of the drivetrain. Stuff does wear out. Ben |

Lola, if it is a rustbucket, $2200 is too much. Really the only thing an old miata has going for it is condition of the body. Everything else is cheap and easy to replace. So.... Pics or ban ... ?? :D J/K Sort of |
sounds good to me! :)

I asked the seller for a price, he said he'd be happy with $3k. I might swing by and have it inspected at a shop, then show up with $2500 and see what he says. Is that a good plan?
what about this one? http://www.fengauto.com/details.aspx...16195&img=3142 It looks like the body will need some minor work(i see some scratches on the bumper), but it has a lot less miles and it's newer too. Pics are crap, but it looks like the Top looks like it might need replacing down the road. what do you guys think? I'm initially turned off b/c it's a dealer. |
Leather seats are a good sign it might have a torsen lsd.

That doesn't make sense Tim. Here is a qoute from the add: tan interior from a 1994 M edition miata, including leather seats with 2 speakers in each headrest |

Once again - The main thing to look for is RUST. P.S. You are right about dealers. A bunch of puss suckers. Don't let them shake you down - Keep zippers on your pockets!!:gay: |
yes, buy it, then post nudes.
If you ever went the turbo route, or wanted stand alone engine management, you could do MSPNP. |
Sell the M interior and wheels to the dorks over at M.net to recoup some of the cost.
