My NB Craigslist Miata
 

I've been considering what I should make my DD lately since my 93 always seems to be broken and I miss dailying a convertible. Last week an ad on craigslist made up my mind for me.

A 99 miata was listed for 1200 bucks with "deer damage". Turns out the guy was retired and didn't feel like keeping the car any longer. When I showed up to take a look, I realized it had always been garaged (car is just covered in dust in pics), 82k miles, and had a new glass top. I offered him 2k on the spot (since there was others interested) and walked away with the car. For another 500 I ended up with a painted door and fender to replace the dents and cosmetic damage.

Here's some shots of my new DD:

Superb score!

WOw, looks very clean.

Your a fucking fagget and i hope u choke on your tounge and die.

Very nice find. I looked on cl for two months straight for a miata for my gf and checked out so many $1000-$7000 pieces of shit. ugh.

You are an angry individual! The CL "deals" come few and far between, not only that they are gone within an hour of being posted.

You offered 800 above his listed?

Wouldn't you for that car? Guy had a lot of interest and may have been wavering. I'd have done the same standing there.

Yes, there were a few offers above the 1200 mark, and I wanted to ensure I would get the car. The private party KBB in "good" condition is 5.2k with excellent at 5.7k. So far I'm in 2.5k.

a person is willing to pay a tremendous amount for water since he needs it to survive, however since there are competing suppliers of water he is able to purchase it for less than he is willing to pay.

That would be economics. Statics is like ME shit.

I can't look at charts like that without getting pissed about healthcare.

Rules 25 and 26 have been fulfilled....Way to go nubz

And off to politics this thread goes.

Ya'll should be happy, I posted a full paragraph of ranting before I cut it down to that comment.

How's this:

That's a nice deal on an NB, did Obama pay for it?

There. Back on topic.

the CARS program ended a few months back there tough guy...

it's tax day, shouldn't you guys be out protesting something?

And this car would not have qualified.

I got a refund, so I'm good to go.

I got my money back like foreverz ago.

Ya, I filed first week of Feb.

Someone say something about a miata?

Nice find... asshole.:fawk:
