This car was hit in the rear and it has a damaged trunk lid and slightly pushed in trunk. The rear quarter panels look straight. The rear suspension looks a little bit tweaked but the car seemed to drive just fine when I drove it up and down my street recently. The engine, tranny and rear diff seem fine. The engine starts right up and idles smoothly. The front fenders, hood, and rear bumper cover are in good shape. Both doors have dings but are serviceable and the front bumper cover looks like it hit something at low speed as it's slightly flattened in the middle where the license plate was. The color is faded red because we all know that's the fastest color!
The car is missing it's passenger seat, radio, center dash HVAC controls, and convertible top. Also, the car does not currently have a battery. It never came with one and I just swap in the one from my Spec Miata if I want to move it.The car has 154k miles on the odo. The only things I want off this car are the OEM air intake and the Frankenstein bolts on the rear deck (for mounting a hardtop).
I'd keep the car if I had the space. You could have some fun with this car. This would be a perfect Grass Roots Motorsports $2009 Challenge project car. Maybe even a 24 Hours of Lemons car if they allow Miatas. Who knows, you could probably turn it into a race car or solo 2 car without much effort.
I live up in beautiful and sunny Rosamond (aka "God's country"
) which is near Willow Springs International Raceway. $400 takes this gently used creampuff!
