Pics and some paper work in here

Its a 94 with 115k miles and I'll just post the add for the rest of the info

Features: A/C: Front, Cruise Control, Power Steering, Bucket Seats, Airbag: Driver, Airbag: Passenger, Cassette Radio, CD Player, Power Windows, Alloy Wheels

Selling Points: `94 Miata 5-speed, 27 mpg. 15? alloy wheels with Kuhma performance tires. Also, 14? factory wheels with all-season radials for winter driving. Flyin' Miata Stage II Turbo (165 hp at rear wheels), Flyin' Miata Kevlar clutch. New dual core radiator, new SPAL high volume fan, new dual exhaust. Factory hard top, Soft top & window in good contition. LeBra Bra, luggage rack, & trailer hitch. Also included is a Hard Core Roll Bar, 4-Fyin' Miata progressive springs (lowers 2?, great handling) & 2-RCI cam-Lock 5-Point 3" harness. Great car, handles great, fun to drive year round.

Paid $4400 which I think is a really good deal. Yes I'm sure it has been beat on a bit over the years but for the price I don't care. I do all my own work and can handle anything that pops up. The car is an absolute blast to drive. Even if it didn't have the turbo it would still be awsome. The super quick steering, great shifter, perfect pedal placement, and of coarse the handling. Its just a great car. And with the hardtop and roll bar it might even pass as a man's car ;).

oh and the lowering springs and roll bar aren't installed ATM. And yes the stereo is rigged but I planned to put a new on in it anyway.

That's a steal. I paid $1025 for a hard top alone for my 94 a few months ago.

Thanks. I think its worth alteast the $4400 stock without the hardtop. Everything else is just a bonus.

He had a small bag of concrete that fit perfectly in the trunk well and did drive it in the snow. I switched it back to the summer wheels as soon as I got home since I have my 89 turbo caravan for winter driving. He had a little utillity trailer for hauling around small junk when he needed too. Again I have a van so don't need it and it will be removed. Just checked a post I made over on miata.net and its not a FM stage 2 turbo kit on the car, its probably equal to whats a stage 1 kit now Its an older kit from back before the company was called flying miata. Whatever is in it it is fairly quick still.

He had one of those little utility trailers for hauling little junk when he needed too. I guess I could use one to tow my slicks if I ever start racing it :).

ZOOM ZOOM!

Cool man, sounds like a good price. Turbo is kinda surprising though, I'd figure it would make more than 165RWHP. Still, plenty for that tin can! ;) Enjoy!
