Just bought a......
Miata! Found a nice, two owner, low miles (67,xxx) with extensive records on CL. Mariner blue, with the A package, a new top and later model NB wheels. I forgot how much FUN these little guys are! I had a 91 BRG Back in 95, loved it, think I like this one more, though I wish I had those fake minilites from the 91. Pics to follow.

Good buy!
I've owned a Miata since '04, and I put more miles/year on it than the Benz.
