Hi folks.. I have given in to the correct answer: 42.. er... I mean miata. I just got it (ebay purchase, man is this a scary thing... buying a car off ebay) for $2500, It is a 1990, with a jackson racing supercharger,Koni yellow shocks (kinda old looking, though), full racing beat exhaust, suppossedly an LSD (but even if it DOES have one, it is probably wide open by now) and Rota 4 spokes.
it does have a slight issue: the glass in the top has come unattached on the bottom 50%. any quick easy fixes that don't involve a warm garage? IT looks like they tried to fix it with gorilla glue, but it failed.
thanks.
Congrats on the new purchase.
Congrats, although I have no idea on the top.
Oh and Congrats! Welcome to the addiction.
Wecome aboard!
Glass in the top isn't stock. Stop by a boat shop, see what they can do to fix it.
Boat shop? Interesting idea. I have heard mention of duct tape, as this is just until the spring, when it will get a brand new top.

Welcome aboard the Miata bandwagon! Sounds like a nice deal.
You might also be able to buy the replacement window section for the top, and put it in. But by all means, try Keith's boat shop suggestion first. If you put a new top on it, save yourself some hassle and go with a Robbins. They fit right, and putting a new top on is enough of a pain in the ass as it is.
Oh, and getting a supercharged NA for $2500? Nice score.

This.
Mine was more and doesn't have anything so fancy as forced induction.
my top and hardtop are in good shape though :)
I was actually looking for a hardtop, but when this showed up, I had to jump. I still need a hardtop for it though.
