thats what i was thinking

nice price - what's wrong with it?

Not much, runs well. A couple of small blemishes on the exterior, dings; interior merely OK.

Need to sell it, priced aggressively to do so. Willing to show it to anyone locally that might want to check it out for any remote prospective buyer.

Damn if nothing is wrong with it, it will be a great purchase. Wish this was for sale a year ago

 

[LASERBLUE135]

wow, that's priced to sell! Damn....call your friends and family.

 

[PhreakV]

so does this still have the grill from the pics? any pics of the interior (especially gauges/pod)?

very interested but need to figure out if someone will buy my Spec... lol

 

[MX5RACER]

I will have the car this afternoon and I will take some more pictures. Any pictures other than what you mentioned?

 

[PhreakV]

engine bay pics would be nice (especially relating to mods), a shot of the HU that replaced the factory unit, general interior (seats, floor, etc just a wide shot), trunk, anything that you could snap of the undercarriage, tires (a front and back) with penny for depth.

sorry for the longer list but I'm trying to get ahold of a proxy in Lauderdale that I know.

any idea on type/mileage of the tires?

 

[MX5RACER]

They are about a year old, less than 12,000 miles on the tires. They are Kumho AST tires. I will post all pictures requested later this evening when I get home.

I just picked the car up from my dad. It is my step brother's car and he has owned it since new. I have to stop by the local Dealer here and get some parts for my car, so I will also try to get a service history report and post that as well.

Nice car for a super nice price.

[PhreakV]

any word on this?

 

[MX5RACER]

In the interest of full disclosure and to satisfy some of the questions that were raised here in the last week or so, more pictures. (Sorry for having to wait until this weekend to do all this.)

From left to right (if the pics load as I expect them to):
- rear seat, center section. There is a small stain in the light grey area.
- steering wheel blemish in the leather around 9 o'clock
- Hurricane Wilma flying debri (Wilma was a wind event, no flooding in South Florida), left front fender
- more Wilma, passenger side front door trim
- more Wilma, passenger side rear door handle

more next post. . .

 

[MX5RACER]

Still more pics:

- final Wilma picture: small dent in r/f fender
- underhood, hopefully shows enough detail of the slight mods done to the car
- r/f tire with depth gauge showing just over 5/32" of tread left (sorry if the pic is fuzzy it's as close as my digi camera can focus)
- l/r tire showing depth of tread. R/F and R/R are in the exact same condition, they're all 5 to 6/32" of tread left.

Hopefully these imperfections can explain why the car is priced aggressively. Mechanically the car is very sound.

 

[MX5RACER]

Car is still for sale.
