How good of a deal is a 1990 Miata at $1200?

I would imagine being in Hawaii makes it more valuable. Even if not its still a pretty good deal if it runs like he says. I would buy it to do a flip and make a profit.

A pretty good one, I think.

Considering Hawaii prices, you have to do it. I'm drooling thinking of driving up a tropical mountain in a Miata.

Looks like rust on the bottom of the passenger’s side quarter panel, so that’s a resounding no. You’re not going to flip it with rust, and keeping it long term means beating that cancer. $1,200 is a downpayment at that point.

That’s a great deal even with the rust. (At least in my area it would be.) The rust isn’t too hard to fix if you have access to a welder and do it yourself. I’m in the middle of that exact project this weekend.

I would say wait and find a 92 or 93 in the same price range. If I remember correctly from when I was researching them the chassis was substantially improved in those years and if you get the 1.8 you don’t need to worry about the 1.6l long nose crank snapping issue.

Find out how bad the rocker rust is... I can’t tell from the pictures. It would eventually total the car if left to its own devices. It could cost about 1,500 for the rust repair (unless you can do it yourself). Even then it is a good deal of everything else is in good shape and honestly even if you “overpay” a little for a Miata, you are still getting a car that is worth much more than its “value”.
