2002 SE with 88k miles. Driven by an old lady to work and back since it was brand new.

Has literally everything, ABS, Bose stereo, power windows and locks, remote locking and trunk release, Enkei wheels, Bilstein suspension, and 6 speed gearbox.

And just look at this sexy leather color. Closest thing I can compare it to is baseball glove leather.

I'll admit, I'm not a HUGE miata guy but this is awesome. I love those wheels.

Dat interior!

That is a stunning Miata. That interior looks flawless! I hope your dad keeps it looking good!

Oh yeah, we have quite the collection. We were getting a new roof, so we had to put them in the grass.

Awesome. Just bought a 2003 base myself, and after many long trips, I envy your sixth gear.

Oh yeah, it has cruise too. :)

Mine has cruise, too. I'm assuming someone had that optioned at a dealer, because i didn't think a base model would come with it. Has electric windows and locks (not remote), too.

I love that leather, but I live in Phoenix and that would be HOT.

Here is a view of his street back in the early 80's. All of the cars (including the Beetle) belong to his family. So, it's a recurring thing.

Is... Is that a Celica GT, front left?

Yup. He had a few of them. He raced them in SCCA road racing (actual bumper to bumper stuff).
