Selling my 1999 Mazda Miata 5-speed.  Asking $3500.  It's a "Leather Package" car which means it had a torsen LSD.  133,xxx miles  This has been my autocross car and occasional commuter for the last few years.  It's prepped for FAST Autocross club's equivalent of ES but would be SCCA ES legal with a couple of small changes.  It's got Koni yellows, Fat Cat bump stops, Flyin Miata front sway bar, Flyin Miata catted mid pipe, a Roadster Sport muffler, and Kosei K1 Racing 15x7 wheels with RE71Rs.

The car has no leaks and no check engine lights.  Drives great and runs strong.  The paint isn't perfect (especially on the bumpers) but I think it looks fantastic from about 10 feet.  The AC works, and not "I just put a can of stuff from Autozone in it works"... It's been working great since I had it fixed 2 years ago.  Cruise control works as well.

A lot of the little annoying "old Miata" jobs have been done.  New Robbins top, shift boots, radiator, bump stops, window switch, eyeball vents, console lid, etc.

The car is located in Seffner, FL.  Test drives and inspections are welcome.  VIN available on request if you want to run a CarFax on it.

Oh man I want this, but I don't know if I can fit in it. I have family a little north in Dunnellon FL too.

In reply to Datsun310Guy :

Only 600 from Asheville, still not really viable for me to drive it back. Looks great though!

Come on, 10 hours on the interstate in a 20 year old Miata on RE71Rs sounds like a great time to me!

I always use earplugs when I race karts and would have done the same if I had decided to spring for this guy. Maybe I'll be on the next flight out for one of these 10 hour drives. Grats to the buyer and seller!

Figured this would sell quickly. Just wondering, was the loss of the Brooksville venue a factor in your decision to sell it?

Yeah losing Broksville was a big part of it.  No sites within an hour drive of Tampa now so I guess I'll take a break for a while.  I just can't bring myself to drive the 3-4 hours round trip to Dunnellon, The FIRM, or Ft Myers now that I have a 3-year old.
