illestatus: 2002 Mazda Miata LS

[illestatus]

so i decided to get a nice economical car
the car was well taken care of and it shows.
it is a 5 speed and has 100k miles
it has a factory nardi steering wheel but im thinking about placing a rapid release one on for security.
the new rims came with the car but will be replacing them soon. thanks for looking

Nice

Looks well taken care of, even the factory hood bra is in perfect condition.

What happened to the 1 piece headlights on the accord?

Looks good. Any other plans for it?

I was wondering about your CB7 the other day. I see it in one of the pics. How's it holding up?

the hood bra is brand new, the cb belongs to my brother now... he had a front end collision a few months ago

no plans, just keep up on the maintenance..it does have a lot of factory goodies(lsd, Bilstein suspension, fog lights, bose audio, front and rear Stabilizer Bars, nardi steering wheel, an Aluminum Hood and an aftermarket short shifter


the cb7 is still in the family but not getting the attention that i would like but yeah whatever

Nice. I'm looking into getting one myself as a summer car/drifter. Like a 99-02. I already have a hardtop for it with the defroster! Good luck on this roadster my man!!!!

Hey sorry for the late reply, I hope you have the NB by now! I would love to have the hardtop as the winter months are approaching but I have other priorities right now.
Anyways this is how the car looks as of right now

Like it much better with the new wheels. My little step brother has one of the older ones with the pop ups, not sure what year. Fun little cars to drive and have a hell of a lot of room for how big they are. Four boys all over 6 feet and each fit in there just fine.

Love it. What kind of wheels are those?

Funny how this happens almost always the moment its been sold or given away. That is why if I ever let go of any of my cars I dread seeing or knowing about it, more likely it will make my blood boil knowing or seeing it mistreated.

Now its in line with Australia, Japan and pretty much the rest of the world. Don't really know why it was called Miata in the states.

Nice car!! Actually the Mx5 was on my short list of 2 seaters when I was in the market for one before I got my roadster.

It was on my short list as one credential I had to have was that of reliability and affordability of not just to get into it (buying the car) but affordability in maintenance (abundance and price of parts).

I didn't want to buy european which was cheap to get into but expensive to keep. Similar to buying a second hand printer where its cheap to obtain initially but the inks are very expensive and starts to take a toll on the running cost.

I am so glad to get the car I have now tho... answered all my wish list

Miatas never came with V6s. The NBs came with the 1.8L (I-4.)
