Is NB Miata, and is probably only good for an exocet for locost donor....

With rust like that, $1k. Maybe like $1500 if everything else is immaculate and it runs well. Check the front subframe though. It's worth like negative money if that's rusted..

Interesting that it’s only rusty in that one spot. I bet that car was in a minor collision on that side and the repair was not of the highest quality.

Ah and I see a Warm Air Intake... that’s good for fuel economy.  Not so good for power on a hot day.

In the ad, they say the motor has half the miles listed... but they don’t list how many miles are actually listed.

Conditional nice price. And that depends on what the car looks like underneath, what the mileage is and how well it goes, stops and turns.

Hey that’s near me!

Crack pipe. Lost title? Willing to sell it cheaper without the title? Recent registration (can tell by the plate number). Looks like it’s parked in a tow yard.

You can do better.

That strikes me as a potential NP. Interior’s great, exterior’s not bad except for the rusty fender, and engine... But mileage is not stated.

The car has 260,000 miles, and the engine has only half that many miles.

I’d be really worried that there is way more rust you can’t see.  It would depend on having a closer look.

Locost donor. Sell interior to extend budget.

I’d be very cautious if there’s rust that bad on it, even if it’s only “one” spot. NB and NA Miatas can develop rust in the boxed frame near the front sway bar mount that’s hard to detect until it’s too late and it’s hard to prevent it because rust forms between the two untreated walls.

I forgot about these. I like them except the Rays.
