This idiot has been selling this car constantly ever since I started looking at miatas. I suppose with a 40k asking price it must be a bit difficult. Anyone know what the weight addition is when you double dip your rims in 24k gold?

err.. Its ebay motors. Technically I wouldn't think it would be considered phishing unless an account was asked for, or personal information was solicited. Must be using norton internet security or McAfee....lol.

But what if you actually won it? You'd have to get a gold tooth and a stable of hoes.

It's times like these where I wish I was rich; I'd buy it from him in cash in person, then light it on fire in his driveway and walk away

Take off that ******* "SNOW PLOW" for a front end,
and it might be worth $10K to the right fool!

Over 350 RWHP....please call for complete build sheet, over 75K in this car
Ya sure! And I like to take it in the *** from a horse!

You guys have it all wrong. That car is the perfect candidate to be the 1st Miata Donk. Where are those 40" plexi wheels when you need them?

I was think'n the same thing... over $75K invested? If he bought the car brand new for $25K and had everything done by FM I still think it would come to around $50K or a hair over including labor.... I just can't see where the extra $25K went.

Built Engine = $10K (FM Price w/ head work)
FM2 w/ Link & Tuning = $6K
Car = $25K (if he bought it new off the lot)
Paint/body kit = $10K
Wheels = $10K (if he's ******* retarded enough to pay that)

That leaves $14K for labor... that's being conservative as hell on prices too.
