And why would you put a type I Torsen in a 97 when they come with a type II IIRC?

Because my 97' had an open diff, and my buddy who was about to sell his 94 sold me his Torsen T1 for 350 dollars, (we swapped diffs)

First off, I don't understand why some of you guys are leaving comments to take assumptions on my cars value, when you're not even interested in potentially buying the car. I made it clear, 10,500 dollars or best offer . If you are potentially interested, send me a private message. If you want to find someone to throw flames at or give insulting offers to (I.E. a person who offered 750dollars for my two month old BEGI Series One Kit), get on Ebay and find the closest guy selling a JRSC Miata.

My comment was serious. A location might be of use to potential buyers.

people have always been free to comment on the price that others set on their cars. I think it should stay that way.

FYI, your car had a factory Torsen II then!! Sounds like your "buddy" screwed you! How much do you actually know about Miatas?

Okay, this dude obviously doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. For one, don't play me a fool, I obviously know the difference in the torsen T1 and open Diff, I swapped them and looked down inside the differential.

And about the package, your wrong. In 1997 there was a touring package and the upgraded popular equipment package.

The touring package included

Power steering
map pockets
Leather-wrapped steering wheel
power windows
power mirrors
aluminum alloy wheels with locks

The Popular Equipment packaged included

Touring Package items, plus
Torsen limited-slip (manual transmission only)
rear subframe brace rods
headrest speakers
cruise control
power antenna

Check it out below...

With a full redesign in the works, Mazda let the existing Miata glide through 1997 almost unchanged. There was a new "Touring Package" that included power steering, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power windows, power mirrors and aluminum alloy wheels. An STO (Special Touring Option) Edition roadster was offered in a batch of 1,500 and included all the Touring Package equipment plus stainless steel scuff plates, Twilight Blue paint, 15-inch Enkei wheels and a Nardi shift ****. Only 47 brave souls opted for the competition-oriented R package, and this year's M Edition came painted Marina Green.
Get your facts right and leave your flaming where it belongs, go give yourself the finger
