Holy ... that a great find.. Get it before someone else does!!!
|
Damn, called the guy and someone left a deposit and is picking it up on Tuesday... The search goes on..
|
showing up with a wad of hundred dollar bills trumps any deposit imo.
|
Yea, but it's hard to buy plane tickets and show up hoping the car is still there ;)

Is an "r" package worth huting down? How much more should I expect to pay for an "r" package? Is the Bilstein suspension a significant improvement or the standard models? How does it compare to other aftermarket suspension packages?
I found this, but the price is a little higher than I was hoping to find one for. http://columbia.craigslist.org/cto/1338808780.html Thanks again for all the info guys. I appreciate the comments. |

I found this, but the price is a little higher than I was hoping to find one for. 1995 Mazda Miata - Low Miles, Sport Thanks again for all the info guys. I appreciate the comments. |
Thanks, I am using that site. I just need to widen my search because the ones out here are over priced rust buckets.
|
billsteins are pretty awesome and perform with most of the moderate suspension upgrades available.
|
The white "R" package from Florida was sold. : (. Still looking using searchtempest, craigslist, but not really finding much. Do more examples pop up during the fall and winter months?
|
about $3,000 to $4,000 in alabama
|
Can you tell if a car has a torsen by year & options?
Found this blue green one with leather in mass. 1997 Mazda Miata Not sure if it is the popular equipment package or the "STO" (the STO doesn't have torsen). |
Am I the only one who finds some peoples ads retarded? This guy in VT apparantly spent a lot of money modifying his car, but can't seem to explain what exactly it has. It's like it would be a privelage to purchase this car off of him....

The owner of the '94 is obviously an illiterate child. You should expect childish things from him. He may have spent a lot of money on parts and it might be a good deal, especially since he appears impulsive.
Leather cars typically have torsens if I remember correctly. M.net has a breakdown of all of that crap somewhere. I don't go over there much, so I don't recall where. |

Regarding the other car, usually cars with leather had the torsen, unless it's an STO edition. I don't know what color it is from the picture. Aparantly all STO's were the same color-Twilight Blue Mica. From Miata.net: "The following were not available from the factory on the STO: cruise control, ABS, Torsen LSD, Premium Sound System, electric antenna, factory hardtop" Can someone look at the picture and tell me if thats Twilight Blue Mica? Thanks! |
|
^Nope. Montego Blue. That car has a Torsen. It is the loaded with all the options model. Looks just like my loaded with options car.
It has the electric antenna, premium sound, elec mirrors, elec windows and most likely cruise control. Good find. |
Thanks Sixshooter!! Thats the information I was looking for.
|
So after talking with the owner he mentioned there is a rust bubble in the rear quarter. Maybe I need to look down south. Damn northeastern cars always have rust!!

I have a '97 that I believe is Montego Blue; would it have a Torsen? |

All Montego Blues have a torsen? Or is it just that year? I have a '97 that I believe is Montego Blue; would it have a Torsen? |
